Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 31310574 United States 01/04/2013 12:36 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Yeah Tracphone is a bit much. I'll check out Boost Mobile. This is the problem with prepaid plans these days, they all expire so quickly needing to refill to maintain the account. I rarely use the phone but would prefer to have one for emergencies / aaa / things like that. I think because smartphones are so popular prepaid services had to adjust with it. |

Psych User ID: 903456 Netherlands 01/05/2013 07:02 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | For years I used to pay only $10 a year, and it worked out well since minutes never expired. I had over 600 minutes but T-mobile wiped all that and now minutes expire and costs a lot per minute. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 31310574 You saved up 600 minutes by paying $10 a year? How many minutes did you get for $10? Anyway. I doubt you will be able to find something similar. Better start practicing using smoke signals, Morse code, or train some pigeons. |
