Likewise. I'm paying 18 quid across three numbers (albeit work paying one of those), and it's massively more than I need......I have big data packages that I don't really need, for capacity in case I need to run an emergency internet connection by mobile some time. Five phones.
Of course I'm not paying for buying a phone over contract. The least up to date phone software is on the new samsung 24 from work. All the others are on lineage OS, and though 'old' phones, they are within a couple of months of current release android (de-googled)...and a lot faster (at least the two newest) than the new phone. Which when I got it, I couldn't believe how unpleasant and over managed it was.
I shall be bereft when I can no longer purchase a decent lineage compatible phone...and that day is coming, because increasingly access to unlockable phones is reducing, as prices are escalating. Milky, milky. Again.
