What are the early termination fees?  I have a total of 5 lines 2 are out of contract 3 will be out of contract june 2015.  AT&T has offered me unlimited txt talk and 30 gb of shared data as well as 5 new iphone 6's for a grand total of $205 a month!!! plyus tax of course and that price is locked in no contract either.  i may have to switch carriers my bill now is almost 300 a month with only 2 iphones and 3 basic phones.  just dont know what those termination fees would be.

Assuming the 3 line are smartphones the ETF would be $600 total. Basic phones would be $300.  An sorry you were lied to by at&t. That's price is not taking into account the cost of the phones.

30 GB $130

5 Line $15 each=$75

total $205

However you also have to pay for the phones. Assuming the cheapest iPhone 6 and assuming you chose the 24 month payment plan that's another $135 a month. So $340 total. And you'll have to pay the sales tax on those phones upfront or on your first bill. What the sales tax on $3250 in your area?
