That’s more then I spend for my household on “tech gear” every 3 years, including cellular devices. I am far from any line that would qualify me for a program… seems excessive.
I agree with the bump to $60, $30 is a good subsidy like a decade + ago.
Is the money supposed to completely pay for it or is it a subsidy? If it’s a subsidy then $30 seems fine. High speed Internet at around $50 seems pretty common.
Idk. Where I live the cheapest option is like $65. I think one company offers 10mb for less, but for obvious reasons I haven’t switched to that.
I thought there was a companion requirement that providers must offer a plan that is fully covered.
