Jerome, it's fully possible to have more than one plan under one account.
No, it wouldn't be at add a phone rates, as they wouldn't need an
add-a-phone. They've already got two phones, each under a separate plan. If
it comes time that the original posters to this thread, with the old plans,
find the need for more minutes, they can cancel the old plan and convert the
new plan to an add-a-phone account.

As for the phone crapping out on the original plan, all one would have to do
is get another phone and do an ESN swap. That doesn't affect the plan they
are on, if they don't take the $150 credit.

I have two separate non-shared plans on mine. My wife is on the
no-longer-offered $30/300 plan. $35 total, plus taxes, for that plus
unlimited PCS-PCS. I pay $70 for Fair and Flexible with 700 base minutes. If
she switched to a shared plan, the amount of money we'd save, if any, would
be negligible. And I don't think we'd save anything. It's what, $20 for the
shared line...? We might or might not need more than the 700 minutes we
have, but I feel more comfortable with her having a separate bucket. (Even
though she primarily uses PCS-PCS.)

But if they want the $150 credit, the ESN swap resets the clock. Then they
have to wait another 18 months. (This is a definitive answer I got from an
Executive Services rep.)

It is $70 for 800 minutes and the second line is free. But what I was
saying is that the other poster could not Add-a-phone the the 30/300
plan. And if the old non Vision phone does not work anymore, replacing
it with a Vision phone, most of the phones available to do the
replacement are, then the old plan would have to be replaced by a Vision
plan, even if it is a per KB plan.

All that is a given ... however, there are phones that are not programmed
with Vision, and there are a ton of used phones available on eBay and other
sources ...
