Net 10. Get one that doesn't do internet/wifi. Just text and talk.
You can get $25 a month plans. Some of those cheap ones have a fee for you to use it on top of the minutes. At&T is like that. |

That is pretty much what wife and I have and we have had their service for about 4 years. Works great for us, but we don't yak on the phone much and no phone internet.
Caution though, if you buy from other than Tracfone you will have to wait a few extra days for them to send you a new SIM card. If you order from them they put the appropriate new card in before they ship. |

I am running an iphone5 on straight talk which runs about $50 per month. My wife has one of the cheaper tracphones with triple minutes. Bought her a 1 year card with like 1500 minutes for $100.
No problems with either one. |

I have a prepaid plan and it has saved me about $70/month for several years. I'm never going back to contract again.
iWireless - $25/month gets 500MB 4G, then unlimited 3G. 1000 minutes, unlimited texts. |

AT&T Go Phone.
Around $35 for the phone. $1 per day IF you make or receive a call. $0.10 a minute for calls. $25 lasts 90 days, and balance rolls over if you put another $25 on the thing before 90 days are up. Or you can just put $100 on it and it lasts a year. You can accumulate something like $500 No idea what text charges are. I never use it for that. If you just want a simple cell with limited text it is a real bargain. Just a plain old simple emergency phone. |

I had a virgin mobile phone for a while. It was $35 a month for 300 minutes and unlimited data. They have cheaper plans now and more options. I think the cheapest plan is around $20 a month, and $50 a month for unlimited everything.

I have an AT&T smart phone Go Phone.
The plan I use is the $45.00 a month for unlimited phone, text, and high speed data up to 1gb, then a unlimited at a slower speed. I signed up for auto refill, and save $5 a month... so it's actually $40.00 per month. The phone I use fits my needs, but I do need a new one. |

Hey guys, anybody know much about pre-paid phones? I'm looking to go cheap, cheap as I can get, I don't care if it has internet or text, as long as it makes and receives calls. I found this one, it says triple minutes for the life of phone. Is there a better deal somewhere, or a better way to go about this? Thanks....link below. egay link been doing my research too...one of the cheapest out there is pageplus, get 2000 mins for $80 , good for a year, and rolls over if not all used. that's like $7 a month. buy refill time from callingmart.com or kittywireless.com to avoid paying taxes, fees. uses verizon network i believe. |

You should look at Republic Wireless. My phone was $99 and I pay $10/month for unlimited talk and text. No contract whatsoever.
The way they keep it cheap is use VOIP while you're on WiFi and Sprint (I believe) CDMA towers when you're not, so they offload a lot of the work from the towers. link Or you can add unlimited data starting at like $25/month. |

I have a deactivated Tracfone LG 840G you can have, but it won't come with the triple minutes.
I'd recommend going to Tracfone.com and getting the ZTE valet for thirty bucks with triple minutes for life. The valet is the one I currently have. I spend a little over $100 per year but I don't spend a lot of time on the phone. |

Wow... some of you really don't understand the word CHEAP. He wants to make and receive calls, not the extra shit some of you are rambling about.
OP, go to HSN.com and search for Tracfone. That will probably get you the cheapest Tracfone deal out there. I see one for $67.96 that includes 365 service days and 1500 minutes. Might even be better than that if I took the time to look closer. |

Yeah I would say I spend about $120 a year for my tracfone service. I hate contracts so I have been using tracfone since 2006. I actually have the best tracfone available right now, the LG Ultimate II. It's a pretty decent smartphone that cost me $120. I don't talk or text much on it, use hardly any data. It's nice to have the larger screen though if I want to check arfcom somewhere where there is Wifi. I never have to contact tracfone for any reason, so although their CS sucks, its a non-issue for me. Quote HistoryQuoted:
