Here in rip-off Britain you basically have to be prepared to swap providers once your initial contract expires.
So I'm on 900/100 (934/103) at £31/month (presonalised deal) with 12 months of XBox game pass Ultimate in a 24-month contract. When the contract ends the rolling price will nearly double if I cant negotiate it down!
Same model as the US for many providers. Luckily Verizon FIOS is pretty good about that, even offering 10 year price lock in some promos.
