The catch
No pricing gimmicks detected in this plan's structure or EFL.
At the end of the term, this plan renews itself onto a month-to-month variable rate. Holdover rates usually run well above the contract rate, so mark the end date and shop again.
Cancellation fee: $150
Fees in the fine print

- Returned payment: $30
