which prepaid cell phone is better?

Prepaid cell phone card does not pay tax, the minutes usually roll over, so it is good for emergency phones, or even good for light cell phone users.

STI Mobile: For the lightest users, if you are already an STI customer, "currently" STI Mobile is still the cheapest, but:

STI Mobile Changed their term of service, now instead of non-monthly charge, they have the $0.10 per day charge, without informing their customers. I found out this since my card had zero balance.

It does not matter whether you are an old customer or a new customer, the $10/day apply. Many old customers would be unhappy to see their cell phone stop working when they really need it.

ALLTell: If you are not an existing customer, and is willing to take the risk of paying a one time activation fee of $35.00, then alltell.com has a deal:

this is a prepaid wireless plan called U prepaid. The cost per minute is 15 cents.Make a one minue call each 30 days to avoid a $4.00 inactivity fee. Noticed that this 1 minute call per month is the usage not the monthly fees. Your minutes never expire. You can add minutes online using a credit card. You can keep your credit card info on file and this will allow you to add minutes at any time directly from your phone.

You can also buy a prepaid minutes card at Alltel Dealers. Also you need to buy a used CDMA phone on eBay. Voice mail can be added at a cost of 15 cents per minute.

But since there is a one time activation fee of $35.00, it is similar to paying the $36.50 STI mobile fees for the first year, so there is some risk if they change their terms a year later (similar to STI mobile changed its plan).

T-Mobile: If you use a little bit more minutes, buy a $100 phone card (at staple or office depot) get a free after rebate phone with a $25 card. The minutes last a year, cost about 8 cents/min, total about 1000 minutes.

Once you paid the $100 for the first year, you are a gold member. Second year and after is as low as $10/year for Gold Rewards members

(Verizon networks) Page Plus: http://www.pagepluscellular.com/index.aspx

if you have an old verison phone, you can activate page plus through an ebay seller. There is another place to activate for you: http://www.gettalktime.com/weg/gttv2/

A fee of 50c is charged every month. (not everyday as STI mobile).

Minutes last 120 days and adding any card will rollover unused minutes. Page Plus deducts $0.50 on the 25th of each month. This charge reduces minutes based on a 0.14 per minute rate. On an annual basis you lose about 43 minutes due to monthly fees. Card Daily Minutes $10 Card 71 Minutes $20 Card 150 Minutes $50 Card 400 Minutes $80 Card 800 Minutes Text messages are $0.08 to send or receive. No roaming charges on Verizon's network. Roaming off Verizon's network costs $1.99 per minute. Numbers cannot be ported into Page Plus. Customer service said that numbers can be ported out to post paid plans. Page Plus can't port numbers to prepaid plans.
