...shared cellphone plan? Since my dad didn't have a cellphone, I though it would be a good idea to add him to my "Everything Data Family - with Any Mobile, Anytime" plan for an extra $19. I activated a used handset, and I didn't have to pay a $200 deposit since I am a Premier customer, a $35 activation fee, or buy a new phone. Since the account is in my name, I always pay the entire bill every month. I will continue to pay the bill in its entirety; even if my dad can't make the payment (since its only $19.) My girlfriend and I live together. She pays the rent while I pay all of the other expense: utilities, groceries, Comcast triple play, etc.
