Wife and I are looking to get some sort of phone plan where we can pool the minutes and talk to each other for free. I currently have Virgin Mobile because I use maybe 5 minutes per week. She currently has US Cellualr because her work paid for it but she doesn't work there any more.

It looks like most places have plans for $50 - $70/mo and most seem to include free nights/weekends, free talking to each other, etc.

Anyone have any input on a plan they use or used to use and if you liked it or not? This would be in the Milwaukee, WI area.

Thanks.

we're in the nyc area but we like our t-mobile family plan. $50/mo, free calls to each other, i can't remember the other aspects but we've had no complaints so far.

just be aware that each additional line ie @9.99 gets tax too.. so each additional line comes out to be around 20 after tax & fcc fees..

i have cingular but switching to verizon soon... better coverage in my area.. i currently have cingular & tmobile.. different phone has differnt signal levels also..

$100/mo w/ verizon... 4 lines. $60 for two. I get 500/min, free calls to verizon cell, free nights/long distance, across all phones. works nicely for us. I think t-mobile had the cheapest plan.. but around here, t-mobile sucked... and all my friends have verizon.

Cingular 4 lines, 1000min, $70 after taxes. It was ATTW but the reception sucks compared to my old verizon, but its alot less expensive.
