Any good cell phone rates out there?

[austin316]

I DON'T CURRENTLY HAVE A CONTRACT OR USE A CELL PHONE. Anyone know of any good deals going on now? I don't need many minutes, like 250 a month is fine as long as I can get a bunch of nights and weekend minutes. Also, nationwide long distance would be real nice too (Even if its just from my home calling area. And oh yeah, I would like to only pay about $30. Thanks in advance.

Austin316,

Have you checked the hotdeal threads? Search for sprint or verizon. Well, for 30 bucks at sprint you can get 350 - 400 minutes (depends on which csr u talk to) and 2800 nights and weekend minutes for 29.99. National long distance is also included.

Here's the Sprint PCS thread that SoloKid was referring to, there's some excellent advice in that thread.

Also check out VoiceStream Wireless which is currently offering:
500 weekday anytime free long distance free roaming within the USA minutes
UNLIMITED weekend anytime free long distance free roaming within the USA minutes
for $39.99 per month
