How much do you spend on cellphone bills?

Ever since I got a postpaid account for my iPhone 3G, my monthly cellphone bills have doubled (maybe even tripled) in the last couple of months. It used to be less than Php300 for each of my 2 mobile phones.

Our poll for the week surveys the amount spend for cellphone bills by our readers here. I’ll be using the data as part of the demographic profile report for the blog.

Here are the choices:

Less than Php300
Less than Php500
Less than Php1,000
Between Php1,000 – Php2,000
Between Php2,000 – Php3,000
Between Php3,000 – Php5,000
Over Php5,000

Please send in your feedback in the poll section on the sidebar.

Likewise, do leave a comment if you’re more of a texter than a caller or which type of mobile service takes the bulk of your bill.

    I refuse to get a post-paid plan since I really save a lot and get more value in using pre-paid. I use an e-load sim for personal use and I save up to 10% off the face value of pre-paid cards.

    I also save A LOT in IDD, NDD, local calls from my pre-paid Bayan Wirless. (my e-load sim saves me 12% off the face value of reload cards) at 3 pesos per unlimited local call, only a actual landline can match that!

    my globe plan is 1,800 but because of the lock-up (i forgot the exact term) i’m paying 750 every month lang. but i’m not much of a texter/caller (none of those crazy forwards except on christmas) and i use up only 100-300 on that. i’m heavy on internet/gprs though (i tether my laptop to my phone) and i usually go 700-1000 for that. lugi nga ako sa plan ko, actually…

    My smart plan is 1200 with text costing P0.50 per. I rarely go beyond my monthly bill. I use magic jack to call landline of relatives and friends in the USA and sometimes to Canada (for unlimited free calls) and skype if they are also online. I use email when I don’t need to get instant replies. I also passed that stage of sending forwarded jokes and generic messages.

    P150 for Sun Cellular (Text Unlimited 30 days)
    P300 for Globe (valid for 2 months, so P150 per month)
    P300 for PLDT LL+ Prepaid

    = P600 per month total :~)

    I have a Smart postpaid plan 800 and a Sun postpaid plan 350. Lumalampas din madalas ng 1000 ung bill ko sa smart. So nasa P1000 – P2000 ako.

    I’m more into texting than calling so I spend less than 500 pesos for my bills. And I don’t text that often.
