Unbiased prescriptions for common telecom pains.
The industry relies on confusion, autopay, and “upgrades” you don’t actually need. Here are three of the most common ways people quietly overpay every month.
Many carriers charge $12–$18 per month per line for insurance. Over two years, that can exceed the cost of the phone itself.
Most people rarely file claims — and many credit cards already offer device protection.
Sales reps push “premium unlimited” plans even when users consume less than 15GB per month.
You may be paying $20–$40 extra every month for data you never use.
Internet providers charge $10–$15 per month for modem and router rentals.
That’s $120–$180 per year — often more than buying your own equipment outright.
