what exactly do you mean by hook up you phone to your pc through the broadband service are you talking about using your phone as modem or internet connection for your pc?

I believe it only costs you minutes. So nights and weekends are free.

if you have the unlimited data plan it won't cost you any extra i do it all the time if you have no data plan it will only cost you minutes
