Until late last year AT&T offered an optional $10/mo add-on for a fixed # of text messages and voice minutes. Very useful for saving money on those occasional calls and texts during your vacation. You could even pro-rate it and cancel when your trip was done. No more.

The cheapest add-on plan is now $30/mo, one-month minimum. Ack! I guess we will now use those 50 cent texts and $1/minute sparingly. At least we have wifi which means free facetime calls and apple messages
