      <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Totally agree!&amp;nbsp; I was using T-Mobile and getting unlimited data and cell for $70 a month.&amp;nbsp; I thought the service was decent.&amp;nbsp; Then, they said they were going to raise the rate to $80.&amp;nbsp; I had seen that Consumer Cellular had a plan for two lines unlimited for $55 if you were an AARP member.&amp;nbsp; $25 a month was a big enough reason for me to switch.&amp;nbsp; Once I did, I found out that the $55 a month for Consumer Cellular is really about $72 a month after they add in fees and taxes.&amp;nbsp; CC doesn't have as good of service, especially if you plan on travelling internationally.&amp;nbsp; So, AARP is basically supporting a company and deceiving its members into believing something that isn't true.&amp;nbsp; Isn't AARP supposed to be protection its members from fraud?&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
