  "account": "Mint Mobile has revamped its family plan offerings, introducing new discounts for subscribers who opt for multi-user plans. The carrier, owned by T-Mobile, previously offered family plans but lacked a clear discount for signing up with a group. Now, family plans can save subscribers up to $40 per month.\n\nPreviously, the only financial benefit to choosing a family plan was the ability to access per-line prices typically reserved for individual annual payments when billed in three-month increments. However, the new family plans change this dynamic significantly.\n\nUnder the updated structure, the initial line is priced at $30 per month, while each additional line costs $20 per month. This pricing scheme allows subscribers to sign up with up to five lines, leading to potential monthly savings of $40 for a group of five users. The plans are billed on a recurring basis every three months, with quarterly costs ranging from $150 to $330.",
  "summary": "$110 a month for five people is a pretty great deal.",
