For almost the last 4 years I have been paying a fortune on my cell phone bill. I pay around $100/month. If you think about it, $1200/year times 4 years is almost $5,000 just to talk and use my smartphone. While I love my phone I have been looking for cheaper options that what my current provider offers. With that said I have been very interested in the Sprint Framily Plan and have been doing a little research.
Here is how it all works…
- When you join Sprint as a new customer you will pay $55 per month for 1 line that has unlimited talk, text and 1 GB of data transfer while on the Sprint network.
- When you add another line, the rate will decrease by $5.
- Then when you add another line, it will decrease by another $5.
- What is neat about this is the fact that you can keep decreasing the bill up to 10 lines. They don’t have to be your husband, wife or kids either. You can add up to 10 friends, family, neighbors, employees.
With Sprint you don’t have to be family to be Framily!
Since I have four people in my family out of six that use a cell phone, switching to Sprint and paying only $40 per month for 4 lines might be the smarter thing to do. If all six of us were using phones, I would only have to pay $30 per line for a whopping $180 per month. That is only about $80 more a month than I pay now for 5 extra lines.
Watch this video that explains the Framily Plan…
What I like most about Sprint is this…
No Separate bills, no annual service contracts, no early termination fees!
I have been on a contract now for almost 4 years. When my current contract expires, I don’t want a new one. What I also like about Sprint is that they offer payment plans for new devices (upon credit approval). I have always paid upfront in full for all of my cell phones which is great for me but not everyone has the extra cash to pay upfront for the fancy smartphone they want.
Don’t got all the cash for that Samsung Galaxy S4 you want or maybe an iPhone? You might want to see if you qualify for the Sprint Easy Pay Plan.
Do you have Sprint? Have you taken advantage of the Framily plan?

i don’t use sprint but i think the framily plan idea is a great one and more companies should look to models like this. it’s time to lower cell costs1

We are looking into getting another line for my daughter, so this looks like it would be a great plan for our family! I will have to look into this more.
Scott says
Great pricing, it looks like there’s actually some price competition among the carriers. Good for us!
Emily says
Right now it’s just me and my boyfriend so we couldn’t rake in big savings by ourselves but I would definitely consider making the switch if we had more phone users in our home. My mom would have appreciated this plan when me and my siblings were teens!
Ellen Christian says
I like that there is no contract. Looks like something I need to check into.
Roechelle says
I cannot wait to get out of my contract so I can start shopping around!

We don’t have Sprint, we have AT&T and we pay about $160/per month for two lines. I need to look at other options.
Tammi @ My Organized Chaos says
wow, when you break it down like that, it sure makes sense! I need to take a closer look at my plan and where it can be approved. Thanks for this!!
Jennifer Medeiros says
I am with another carrier, but that seems like a great deal. It is nice they decrease if you add additional lines instead of increasing with each one.
Jill says
Sounds like a great deal! Like Scott said, I hope it brings on some healthy competition between the carriers.
Oriana @mommyhoodsdiary says
I have seen this promotion on television and truth is that I have been very tempted to switch. It’s a great deal. Thanks for sharing.
Camille says
We just switched to the Framily plan and love it! I cut my bill in half and we got it low enough so that my sister and husband, who couldn’t afford a data plan before, can now get one, too!
