Affordable home internet for job applications - what worked for you?

I use my phone as my only connection. There are 7 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. I heard of low-cost plans for people with limited income. What else should I consider?

Ask your internet provider about their low-income plan. They rarely advertise it.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 4 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
