$10 per Month Unlimited Texting?

*Verizon Wireless Prepaid* You can have unlimited texting limited to any Verizon Wireless customer for just $10 per month. You will need to set your phone up as a prepaid phone.   Any regular Verizon phone that is no longer on contract will work.  Or you can purchase a Verizon Prepaid phone to use for as little as $29. Talk Minutes will be 25 cents each with the basic Verizon Prepaid plan.

*At&t Go Phone* You can have 1000 texts per month for $10 with At&t and they can be to any phone. While it is not unlimited 1000 texts is quite a few. Purchase an AT&T Go Phone (they have very good deals on Go Phone Packages) and choose the Simple Plan option. If you do use this phone to talk the cost per minute on the Simple plan with 1000 texts is 10 cents per minute.

$15 per Month Unlimited Texting

T-Mobile has a Monthly plan with Unlimited Texting to any cell phone for $15 per month. Buy a T-Mobile prepaid phone and add a prepaid card. Then choose the $15 per month Unlimited Text plan. Calling minutes on this plan are 10 cents.

$20 per month Unlimited Texting

Both Verizon and At&t have $20 per month Unlimited prepaid texting. With either of these plans you can text to any phone. Neither of these companies push these plans, they both have them. This is a very inexpensive way to have unlimited conversations. For school kids with time and desire to talk all the time this can be a very inexpensive alternative.

At&T vs Verizon $20 Unlimited Texting

The prepay phones and starter plans from At&t are less expensive than the prepaid starter plans from Verizon.   I would choose between them depending on who has better coverage in the area the phone will be used.  T-Mobile at only $15 per month is the best deal if you have good T-Mobile coverage in your area.

How Tracfone Works

Tracfone is a simple Cost Per Minute prepaid cell phone company.

You purchase the Tracfone phone and a Minute card.

Then you activate the phone by calling Tracfone on a land line or by going online.

You will have to type in some numbers into your phone and then it is active. It is really easy.

Next you will add a Tracfone Minute Card.

When adding a minute card if you use a five digit Bonus Code you might get more minutes. Check out the Tracfone Bonus Codes.

Basically you buy Tracfone minutes on a card and add them to your phone. You will get 90 days of service time on most Tracfone cards. You must keep minutes and service time on your phone to use it. The remaining number of minutes and the service end date will usually show on your display. vzprepaidvstrac

Be sure to check out what Tracfone DMFL is before you purchase your Tracfone. Here is a great article on Tracfone DMFL. I would only add minutes to a Tracfone that had DMFL on it.

Tracfone Service Time and Minutes Roll Over

If you add minutes or service time before your phone has completely run out the remaining minutes or service time will roll over.

How do I check my Tracfone Service Time?

If your “Due Date” does not show on your screen you can go to your menu and click on prepaid. Then scroll down to “Airtime info.” Both your airtime balance and Due date will show. You must add another Tracfone card to your phone before the Due Date to keep your service active. Even if you have minutes left you will need to add another card to keep your service active.
