The cost of cellular phone service has always kept me from signing
up. I never thought I would make enough cellular phone calls to
justify the expense, but I finally found a cellular phone service with
a price I can live with. T-Mobile is offering a prepaid Nokia
cell phone for $29.95 after discounts and rebates. The cell phone
comes with 30 minutes of talk time. Once you use your initial
30 minutes or your available minutes are about to expire, for $100 you
can buy 1000 minutes good for the next 365 days. If you are thrifty
with your cell phone minutes you have cellular phone service for as
little as $8.33 a month. Once you have
purchased $100 worth of minutes, each time you purchase additional minutes,
all of your minutes are extended for 365 days. All that and with
no contract! The downside is this plan does not allow for roaming
outside the T-Mobile network, so check the service area before you buy.
This is a great cellular phone plan for the person that occasionally
makes short phone calls around town. By my calculation, you have
to use at least 300 minutes a month before a monthly cellular phone
plan starts to make financial sense. So the next time you are
in the market for cellular phone service, consider whether a prepaid
cellular plan is right for you.
