How much do you pay for internet and phone service?

$86.51/mo for two lines and unlimited phone, text, and data from Verizon

$212/mo for cable and internet for WiFi, four televisions, two hardwired desktops and a landline phone from Xfinity. We never use the landline but the bundles cost more otherwise. MLB Network’s the only premium service.

That’s almost $300 a month we pay now for things that were almost free (the phone bill was $7 or $8 then) when I was kid.

I pay about $200 for both.

I pay $54 USD for unlimited data and phonecalls for my mobile service and I hotspot my devices and TV off my mobile. But I'm not in the US so I don't suppose it counts.

€74/month ($85 USD):

* 2 separate numbers and mobile service lines, unlimited calls and data in Europe

* 1GB internet service

* 140 channels analog TV, Netflix, Amazon Prime, and some film streaming services included

I opted for a premium provider, not one of the low-cost sub-contracted providers, so I might have paid less. But super fast and absolutely trouble free for 6 years now.

$9 for phone (unlimited text but a cap on data)

$54 for internet (watch free streaming apps on tv)
