My (Very Cheap) Phone & Internet Bill Just Got Even Cheaper
Why can’t the US be like this?
My wife and I pay €51.90 a month (total) for our internet and phone bills.
And to be clear, that price includes both of our mobile plans (100 GB data — with rollover each month) and our home internet (500 Mb speed fiber). It also includes membership to Amazon Prime here in Spain and a Netflix subscription.
The point is, Pepephone is a sweet deal, and one that I’d have a hard time finding in the US.
So you can imagine my anxiety when I received an email this morning from Pepephone about our monthly rate. My mind kicked into overdrive:
- Is our bill going up?
- Is our data going to get throttled?
- Are they going out of business?
But it turns out that my panic was unjustified because not only is Pepephone not raising our rates or cutting our plan — they were writing to tell us that they were going to be lowering our internet bill and adding data to our phone plans.
