cell phone discounts

The major cell phone providers (except T-mobile) give a greater discount if you 4 or 5 lines. As retired, empty nesters, AARP members typically have 1 or 2 lines. It would be very helpful if AARP could negotiate w/ AAT & Verizon to allow us to obtain services at the 4 (or 5) line rate though we only have 1 or 2 lines.

Thanks

More seniors are getting smart watches, like the Apple iWatch. Consumer Cellular does not provide cellular support to Apple watches with cellular connectivity. You have to have your iPhone nearby and connect via bluetooth. What's the point of having a smart watch if you have to carry your phone? Please urge CC to offer data connectivity for watches without requiring blue tooth/wifi. Thanks!

Consumer Cellular does offer watch service. It’s $5.00 a month.
