Cable - Incl in monthly maintenace fee. I just use their web service to watch HBO, which is incl.
Mobile: 15GB monthly paid for by my employer. I am taxed - $31.7
Internet: 160/15 Mbps - $23
Cable TV and Internet was $136 a month but dropped the TV and now at $75 just for internet but plan to drop that as well.
Call Phone is $30 per month and will be used for light internet use.
Once I drop the internet will also drop:
Amazon Prime $8.25
Monthly service that I pay $20 per month for
So hopefully in August 2017 I will be down to $30 per month total.

All together, for cable provider internet, landline, and DVR plus boxes for 3 other TVs, $150/month, and $225 for 3 iphones, plus one iPad Air, with more than enough data, and insurance. Part of it is also payments on the phones. So total is $375/month. It wasn't asked, but we also have Sirius XM in one car for about $100/year.
$120 - ATT 20 GB plan (2 lines) - does not include smartphones as they are already paid off
$70 - Comcast 75 Mbps down / 10 Mbps up which includes HBO and 10 local channels (we do not even have a decoder box) - we own the cable modem and router and use OTA antenna for OTA channels
$10 - Netflix
~$4 - Amazon Prime Video etc (I divided my student rate per month)
So it comes up to ~$204 a month, but I receive $90 cell phone credit from work (BYOD), so technically our cost is only $114 per month.
Between $400-$500 a month. But my kids will be off the cell phone plan eventually. When I get to it, I might find a way to reduce my cable bill somehow.
Cable/internet/phone bundle: $235 (I've never used the phone)
Cell phone bill (1 smart phone and 1 tablet): $105
Netflix: $10
Total: $368
I could probably reduce my cable/internet and cell phone bills with some research, but they represent such a small portion of my disposable income that I just haven't been motivated to do anything about.
