Sprint today announced a new type of multi-line plan that allows customers to combine accounts even if they are not family members. The basic service costs $55 per month for one line with unlimited talk and text and 1GB of data. Each device added costs $5 less than the one before it, so a second device would cost $50, a third would cost $45, a fourth would cost $40, and so on. Sprint says each individual line can be customized to suit that person's needs. For an additional $20 per month, Framily Plan subscribers can get unlimited data and upgrade to a new phone once every 12 months. The new Sprint Framily Plan goes into effect January 10. Additionally, Sprint named the next set of markets in which it will offer Sprint Spark. They include Dallas, Austin, Ft. Worth, Houston, San Antonio, and Fort Lauderdale. Last, Sprint said that Sprint Spark will be available to Virgin Mobile customers who own the Netgear Mingle Hotspot.

I think the discount only applies to the additional line.

So, if you get two lines the total is $105, as opposed to $100.

But it's still a service discount any way you slice it.

I'm currently getting unlimited data on two lines for $130, with...

You are correct in the pricing. The Article is not right. The cost is $55 if you get only one line. As you add more people to it the cost of the plan decreases $5 per line. So if you have 3 people each line pays $45, if you have 10 people in your grou...
