Recent data has shown that while consumers have cut back spending on amenities coming out of the recession their spending on their phone bills has increased. According to data released from the Labor Department earlier this week in 2011 spending on phone services in the U.S increased by 4 percent, which was the fastest rate in nearly 7 years. Wireless carriers -- such as Verizon and AT&T -- had mobile services revenues of 22 billion in 2007, which then soared to 59 billion by 2011, according to UBS AG analysts. UBS expects that number to rise to $109 billion by 2017.
