Default Family plan question

Hi, i'm part of a family plan with four regular phones and i currently have a phone with just voice and unlimited texting. When i get the iphone will it just replace my current phone in the family plan? If so, i plan on just adding the unlimited data for $30 a month, could i do this?
Thanks.

Is your phone the line that the family plan is on? Or is your phone one of the $9.99 add-ons?

It will replace your current phone and you will need to get the $30 data plan. The real question is how much will the iphone cost? If your current phone isn't eligible for an upgrade, you won't get the phone for the $199-$299 price.

no problem then. As long as your line is eligible and you have the permission of the primary account holder, then you're golden.

So then the $40 voice plan and extra for texting doesn't apply to me? Will i still be able to use the texting and voice from the family plan and the only other cost will be $30 for the data? Cause that would be awesome!

Yes. The only thing you'll need is the iphone data plan. It will just replace your $20 plan.
