Mobile phones are an integral part of our lives. They accompany us on a daily basis and provide us with many services. However, these connected supports do indeed have a cost. At the end of the month, the cell phone bill reminds us. However, it is possible to be clever in reducing the amount of these bills. Follow us to find out everything.
Switch from one operator to another
Generally speaking, mobile telephone operators offer the best packages of the moment to attract new customers. However, following a while, prices start to rise.
In these conditions, it is strongly recommended to change suppliers regularly to always benefit from promotions (Black Friday, Christmas, sales, etc.). Especially since thanks to the portability of the number, the cancellation formalities are simple and quick. So we might as well bring in the competition!
Choose a package adapted to your needs
Reducing your mobile phone bill also involves choosinga package adapted to your needs. When making attractive offers, the supplier is perfectly in his role. It is then up to you to weigh the pros and cons before making a decision.
In this context, start by asking yourself regarding your real data needs and make sure the inexpensive plan you’re interested in actually covers them. With a subscription that is too limited, don’t be surprised to see a temporary reduction in your speed, a blocking of your 4G connection, or worse, an increase in your telephone bill linked to out-of-package consumption.
Conversely, there is no point in subscribing to a plan with 200 GB of mobile internet if you actually use it 5 or 10 times. Certainly, you will have the feeling of being “peaceful” but you will pay much more for your subscription without benefiting from all the services included.
Avoid long-term contracts
Most often, incumbent mobile network operators offer long-term contracts with one or two years of commitment. At first glance, these offers may seem interesting since they generally include a smartphone at a more affordable price. However, over a long period, they are more expensive.
In reality, long-term contracts significantly limit your freedom to change carriers. So, in the event of dissatisfaction or in the situation where another supplier offers more attractive rates, you will not be able to take advantage of them, or will have to pay high termination fees. However, it is possible to benefit from a satisfactory price by opting for a no-obligation subscription.
Do your research before committing
Before subscribing to a telephone plan, it is best to do thorough research on the different operators. Reviews from previous customers can give you a clear idea of the prices and services offered by these suppliers.
There are also many forums and blogs which have useful information on promotional offers from telephone operators. So take the time to carefully compare the proposals in order to choose the best one.
Monitor your data consumption
To reduce your mobile phone bill, you must also keep an eye on your data consumption. Many applications such as social networks, saving documents in the cloud, online videos or even streaming audio can use significant amounts of mobile data to function. For this reason, it is recommended to choose a plan with enough gigabytes so as not to be restricted in your uses (a French person consumes on average 15 GB each month). And of course, use Wi-Fi networks whenever you get the chance.
