Phone and internet help for people out of work - first time posting

I am worried about keeping my phone and internet on during my search. There are 14 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. Employers call and email constantly. What did you switch to?

Libraries lend Wi-Fi hotspots in some towns. Mine lent one for three weeks.

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