Can You Bundle Cell Phone and Internet with AT&T & Spectrum?
With the digitalization of almost everything, the internet has become a necessity rather than just a simple source of entertainment and sharing files faster. Currently, due to COVID, people are working from home, kids have been given the option of remote learning, job holders are attending zoom meetings and the families are streaming their favorite shows online which has boosted internet usage.
That also means you will be spending a huge amount of money paying your monthly internet bills. And if that is not a lot, then add your cell phone bills to that as well. You will be paying around $50-$60/ month to your internet provider and $50+ for your phone if you will have just one line. Moreover, managing bills from multiple providers can be very hectic. If by any chance you lose sight of one, you might end up paying extra or the provider might disconnect your services.
One way to save some money and avoid the hassle of dealing with multiple providers is to bundle up your internet and mobile phone services and get them from the same service providers. Luckily if you are a Spectrum or AT&T customer, you can save a lot on your monthly bills by doing so. Both of these providers offer great plans for internet and mobile services.
