Check Out MyValidas.com For Cell Phone Savings

A couple of weeks ago I told you about BillShrink.com, a website that evaluates your cell phone bill and credit card use to try to save you money. Another way to evaluate your cell phone plan is through the site MyValidas.com. Former executives from Verizon and Blackberry developed MyValidas.com to aid consumers in auditing their cell phone bills.

The company describes itself as the “Travelocity” for the cell phone world. When planning a trip, consumers go to Travelocity which scans the biggest airlines for the best deals. In about a minute, Validas can save you an average of 22%. Upload your most recent cell phone bill, Validas will analyze it for errors, disputes and savings. If Validas finds a mistake they’ll even generate a letter that you can send to your cell phone company. A one-time audit costs $5.

Wonder if you’re spending too much on your cell phone bill? According to Validas, you probably are.

  • 1 out of every 10 wireless bills contains errors
  • Only 44% of what you spend actually pays
    for your minutes
  • $4 of every $100 you pay is for unspecified
    fees and surcharges
  • Overage minutes cost 600% to 2000% more
    than regular minutes
