Many Over 55 In Utah are Getting OVERCHARGED For Phones

If you are over the age of 55 or you have loved ones that are, you should take a look at how much is being paid for cell service. Most providers offer discounts for 55+ and yet many people are not using these benefits. 

Check With Your Current Carrier About What They Offer Seniors 

Most cell phone companies offer a plan for seniors. These are much more affordable especially if you don’t use the amount of data as other demographics do. You probably don’t spend as much time watching endless videos and this can save you money. 

This link to SeniorLiving.com lists all the discounts available to seniors. One of the categories is cell phone companies. Here are some of the best discounts: 

Lively has no-contract plans for seniors that offer discounts through AARP. 

Consumer Cellular has a plan for older folks at just $20 per month that comes with unlimited talk and 1GB of data. 

T-Mobile offers unlimited talk, text, and data starting at just $27.50 a line. They have plans to add more options that are also discounted. 

Check Your Plan and Your Birthday 

You may have aged into the 55+ without realizing how many discounts are available to you. Take some time to look over your bills and see what you are paying for that you don’t have to. It is certainly worth a call to your cell provider to see what they offer.
