My company pays for my Verizon smartphone. I don't know what kind of data or calling plan it has, I just use it as much as I need to and I don't see the bills.

T-mobile---

$40 prepaid, unlimited text and talk, 3GB data included, free streaming (youtube, netflix) so that doesn't count against your data, free wi-fi calling, free hotspotting (using the cell data to connect my tablet while on the road and no available wifi) I can cancel at any time but I have yet to find a better deal for the pricepoint and service.

You guys should go in to the Sprint store because there's a fellow there who can actually give you cheaper rates than advertised by tricking the system. I was able to get 10 lines for $80 a month with 2GB data on each line along with unlimited talk and text. It's been excellent and he was probably the best salesperson i have dealt with.

I got a Trump phone, but the Siri character just keeps screaming nonsense all day long, just like the Donald. I tried to return it, but the restocking fee was more than I'd paid for the darned thing to start out with.

T-Mobile is $10 / mo. "pre-paid" (buy extra minutes).

however pre-paid doesn't mean what it used to: they accept credit



it used to be you could not buy insurance or anything pre-paid on credit, since a retailer, if credit is not paid, never gets the money. that places "the debt" if there is a failure on the government not the company doing business.

however - during obama.gov - it was changed: you can now buy pre-paid, insurance of any kind: on credit.

(in other words - it's not really pre-paid dummy !!)


trac phone i think are crappy phones at 7-11?

T-Mobile for $10 services iPhone

use allot of wasteful cell data / minutes? then get a "bulk rate plan". $40 is one plan. but really they will up-sell anything your asking for if your paying more money.

^^ i'm sure ATT&T or Verizon may have benefits. but i'm happy with pre-paid, no need yet to search for something different, and neither of them seem to want to sell those plans

i was told by someone that TRAC PHONE at 7-11 are popular with illegals calling home to their country (possibly as spies), also popular with criminals. that these phones are not really "the answer to having no pay phones" that anyone can get a phone at a nearby retailer on the lark. the company's sole income is profitting off crime.

i was told yes - trac phone is a company who makes a criminal product - similar to a company outside Virginia selling "speed radar detectors" to those wishing to speed, in Virginia. it's illegal.


"trac phone"'s sale point and claim to phame is they "cannot be tracked" and are usually purchased $cash
