If you are considering a prepaid cell phone service or are looking into recharging your current prepaid card, we recommend you buy online. You have more choices; it's cheaper, and a lot more convenient. The following is the latest information on prepaid cell phone service and featured providers. Prepaid Cell Phones with Rechargeable Minutes. When you go with a prepaid cellular service, traditionally, you buy a phone kit, which is a cellular phone, and your initial set of minutes. The kit usually costs anywhere from $49 to $99, depending on the type of phone you get and the number of minutes you want. When you want to buy more minutes you go to the convenience store or you buy online. Buying minutes online is convenient, you get your pin number instantly via e-mail and the cost is less. Featured Provider: FreedomSelect - no hidden fees, no pins, free roaming, free long distance More Choices: Tracfone, PhoneShark - Phone kits for Verizon, Cingular, or AT&T, Tel3Prepaid - prepaid cell phones and cell cards for all major providers. Free Roaming, National, and International Calling. Currently, some prepaid cellular phone carriers are offering free roaming, national, and even international calling. This is good news for those travelers who travel frequently within the U.S., or if you want to make cellular call to other countries such as Mexico, China, or Russia. Infrequent User/Emergency Cell Phone. A variation for the rechargeable prepaid cellular is Tracfone; you have the option to buy a year of cellular service. Most of the prepaid cellular providers require you to use your phone or recharge it within 30 to 90 days. For someone who uses a cellular phone just for emergencies, or every once in a while, buying one year of prepaid service is great. Prepaid Plan. An alternative to a prepaid cellular plan is Liberty Wireless. Liberty Wireless works like a cellular plan, but is prepaid. Current pricing for Liberty Wireless is $39.99 per month for 300 minutes and 1,000 nights and weekends. This plan works great for those people who want low-cost minutes and don't want to fill out a credit application or give a $500 or more deposit upfront. Liberty Wireless does not require a credit application or a deposit. |
