Both AT&T and Verizon have Pre-Paid plans

I think Verizon is the better choice IMHO

Wow, those plans SUCK. the cheapest is 1$ per day minimum + extra fees? Im sure I will need to make at least one call a day, so that gets super expensive.

I think there are much cheaper pre-paid plans here in Canada.

Am I reading this right?

That looks awesome!

but do they need a credit check? do you have to be a US citizen? just wasnt clear how it works, do you have to pre-pay your $45 monthly fee and this is considered a pre-pay account?

yeah I see that

I actually I think the $30 plan is more than enuff for me.

The cheapest phone is ponly $30.

Ill bet you could get used phones for the network on craigslist.

I live in Las Vegas and needed a secondary phone with no contract. I went with Metro PCS. They had a lot of phones to choose from and the pricing and options were more than fair compared to the lame 2 yr AT&T deal I'm wrapped up in!
