July 2016 – Republic Wireless Bill

The July payment to Republic Wireless for my wife’s phone was $18.85. That includes unlimited calling and texting, 512 MB of data, and a $0.96 credit for the data she didn’t use the month before.

New phones and plans are coming this month on Republic Wireless. You can check them out here: https://republicwireless.com/phones/

The new plans are only for the GSM network, although it says they are working with their CDMA partner (Sprint) to get them up and running there too. The new plans do not include a refund option for unused data, but since we’re almost maxing out the data already, it might be worth it to upgrade to the new plan for a few dollars more and get another half gig of data.

For the time being, we’ll probably just hold tight though so we don’t have to buy another phone. We were contemplating getting a cheap phone and putting it on the $5 Wifi only plan so that we could have a “home phone”, but it seems like the best option is to wait until my wife is ready to replace her phone with something new and just move that phone to be the “home phone”. Knowing how good she is about using something until it won’t last, she might be using it awhile unless I convince her to upgrade to something new. I guess we’ll see.

If you’ve used Republic or have any questions, let me know in the comments.
