How much will it cost

LL Cool Jake

Mar 11, 2008, 3:31 PM
I'm going to sign up for a 89.99 two line 1400 minute family plan when the BB Curve comes out! How much extra on top of the 89.99 for data , unlimited text, and Verizon Navigation on both lines.

Thanks

Data 30x2= 60, 1x 30 unlimited family Text, 2x 10 =20 VZWNav... Grand total 110!! plus your family plan of 90 bucks and taxes app 220!....that's a lot of coin to be on the IN! 🤣

yeah...but who wants sprint...and read one of the more recent reviews on the 8830.

THe guy switched to sprint for the simply everything and EVERYTHING got messed up with his plan and phone service. Sprints a flat out joke, and will prolly remain that way until someone buys them.

You get what you pay for.

yeah one moron who didn't know what the hell he was doing equates to sprint is a joke, pay up the ass for less features just so you are IN is the real joke!

to some people...having service when you need it is worth the money and can actually make you money. Enjoy sprint if it works for you...but like i've said before, just because something is cheap doesnt mean you should go running over to it.

Mar 11, 2008, 7:58 PM
True but when something is just a good and offers more features at a reduced rate its worth considering.

I don't understand why Nav costs extra, Its just data. Why does one need a "Nav plan"

ATT has no such plan and Nav can be used the same.

ON ATT you would get Unlimited data, messaging, Nav whatever on both phones for $70. That includes EVERYTHING. No special "nav" plans

Shared 1400 minutes on TWO phones $90

Plus Taxes and junk fees.

Simple easy.

$30 a person....Go to the ATT website and choose a BB and a plan then choose Personal Bplan which is unlimited data. There you will find your answer.

uh huh. so 30$ a person but above you said 70$ gets you unl messaging data and nav for both. is my math off or would that be 90$(30$ total for unl msg plus 30$ x2 for unl bb)

?

also you say nav is included but which nav is? because according to att.com when i picked the bb curve and went to add services telnav (which is your VZNav equiv) is 9.99 add on.

MidnightDT

Mar 12, 2008, 9:52 PM
you can have it all with vzw for 170 a month two if we are comparing apples to apples. you are talking about google maps being free with att.

GUESS WHAT, its FREE with VZW too.

If you want Telnav/VZNav its 9.99 addition on both services

the price is exactly the same.
why are you trying to compare apples to grapes and act like att is cheaper?

Why won't you consider sprint? Its cheap and easy. I think you will like it. Verizon is to costly for what you want. Go with sprint

Verizon would have to give up too much control to allow a phone as featured as the N82 on the network untouched.

Nokia has not really made a big push into the high end CDMA market. I believe they want their phones to remain as manufactured and designed.

Yeah I don't do the text thing so I forget its even a plan...

Ill give some fidelity and a few dropped calls though to have the features and flexibility of a phone like the N82 every day of the week.

go away you trolls.

is that how desperate sprint is? do they pay you guys to post on forums about how super fantastic their lower prices are?

Chances are LL knows sprint is cheaper but realizes their service is not as good, he probably needs his phones for business or important calls and reliability is the biggest factor.

fact is he did NOT ask about sprints prices, or att's price (which is exactly the same btw).

LL, to answer your question, if you want everything you asked for it would be $199.95 a month if you do not get a discount. it should be noted that you can get googlemaps on the blackberry for free and save 20$ but it is not as good as vz nav.
