By having home and mobile phone service, the older person may save some extra money each month by bundling.
There are prepaid plans for older people, if they do not want to be stuck with a contract. With a prepaid plan, it is like a contract plan without the contract. For example, they can get the lowest amount of minutes with a low price. If they ever want to get rid of their phone, they can cancel without any penalties. Another type of prepaid mobile phone is where they will purchase a sim card with the amount of minutes that they want. Whenever they run out of minutes, they would have to repurchase a sim card.
An older person may be able to receive a free mobile phone. Some areas will give out free cell phones for people who are low income. They do not have to worry about a monthly bill, unless they want to add extra minutes on their mobile phone. The free mobile phone comes with a certain amount of talk minutes each month.
