Why does .verizonwireless keep raising the price of cell phone service? They wanted to charge me $ 60.00 for singleline?

And like $ 1000.00 for for a iphone. The phone company use to charge $ 20.00 a month. Why does a verizonwireless phone have to cost over $ 1000.00? It can be in china for about $ 20.00 dollars. Why are their phones so expensive?

Why don't you just use the phone company then?

Oh yes, you can't make a phone anywhere you want to, download data, chat with friends, etc?

There are plenty of less expensive phones.
