AN ACCOUNTING GROUP ANALYZED AMERICAN CELL PHONE BILLS AND FOUND THAT 59 PERCENT OF US SPEND MORE THAN $100 A MONTH ON THEM AND 13 PERCENT OF US SPEND MORE THAN $200 DOLLARS A MONTH! I’M A BIG BELIEVER THAT TO SAVE BIG YOU HAVE TO FIGURE OUT WHERE YOU SPEND BIG, SO, HEARING THESE STATISTICS, CELL PHONE BILLS DEFINITELY QUALIFY.
THE PROBLEM IS THAT THERE ARE DOZENS OF CELL SERVICE PROVIDERS AND EACH OF THEM OFFERS DOZENS OF PLANS, SO NO NORMAL HUMAN COULD SIFT THROUGH ALL OF THEM, EVEN IF WE DID HAVE THE TIME AND ENERGY. BUT IT’S A PERFECT JOB FOR A COMPUTER! SO TODAY I WANT TO TELL YOU ABOUT 2 FREE ONLINE SERVICES THAT ANALYZE YOUR CELL PHONE BILL AND SUGGEST ALTERNATIVE OPTIONS TO SAVE YOU BIG MONEY.
THE FIRST IS CALLED WHISTLEOUT.COM AND IT BOASTS THAT IT ANALYZES 95,763 DIFFERENT PLAN COMBINATIONS FROM 32 DIFFERENT SUPPLIERS TO HELP FIND THE BEST DEAL FOR YOU. AND THAT’S REALLY THE KEY. THERE IS NO ONE PLAN THAT’S THE BEST. YOUR USAGE PATTERN DICTATES THE BEST PLAN FOR YOU. PATTERN = PLAN. THE WHISTLE OUT SITE HAS YOU ENTER YOUR OWN AMOUNT OF DATA, MINUTES AND MESSAGES PER MONTH AND THEN IT SUGGESTS ALTERNATIVE PLANS OR CARRIERS FOR YOU. YOU CAN EVEN CHOOSE HOW MANY LINES YOU WANT AND WHETHER YOU WANT TO USE YOUR EXISTING PHONE OR GET A NEW ONE.
THE OTHER SITE IS CALLED WIRELESSBUTLER.COM. TO USE WIRELESS BUTLER, YOU UPLOAD YOUR CELL PHONE BILL AND IT THEN ANALYZES YOUR PLAN AND USAGE HABITS. WHEN I WAS DOING A SAVINGS MAKEOVER ON A VIRGINIA COUPLE WITH 7 CHILDREN, I WAS STUNNED TO HEAR THAT THEIR MONTHLY CELL PHONE BILL WAS $578 FOR 6 PHONES. THE TEAM BEHIND WIRELESS BUTLER ANALYZED THEIR BILL AND FOUND THAT THEY WERE PAYING FOR MINUTES THEY DIDN’T USE AND THAT THEY HAD NOT REGISTERED THEIR MOST FREQUENTLY CALLED NUMBERS WITH THEIR CARRIER TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF A PROGRAM THAT WOULD MAKE THOSE CALLS FREE. ALL IN ALL, WIRELESS BUTLER WAS ABLE TO FIND THE FAMILY $1,069 A YEAR IN SAVINGS!
THIS IS THE KIND OF SAVINGS STRATEGY I LIKE BECAUSE YOU SAVE MORE BY BEING SMART, NOT BY BEING DEPRIVED. IN CASE YOU DIDN’T CATCH THOSE CELL PHONE SAVINGS WEBSITES,
