Go to there website. It has the min plan as 39.99 listed.
Then add 30.00 for data and 5.00 for txt (If wanted)


The OP, however, is on a family plan (an old grandfathered one, I assume)-
switching to an individual plan isn't going to solve his problem! ;-)

I assume AT&T is playing Verizon's old game- use equipment upgrades to
force you off old grandfathered plans.

Then his thinking of getting a free 2G iPhone is out. (above)
