PREPAID CELL PHONES FOR SALE 2012

Offering The Best Deals On Prepaid Cell Phones

Prepaid phones (also known as pay-as-you-go) are mobile phones that come without service contracts. Service is paid for ahead of time, usually with small amounts of money. Adding airtime to a pre-paid account is typically as easy as purchasing a credit card sized activation card at a local convenience store. Or for instant gratification, most services allow access to be renewed through the phone itself.

Tracfone Prepaid Cell Phones

America's largest prepaid cell phone provider in the U.S.

With Tracfone you make nationwide and even international calls for the same price of a cheap local call.

You can buy bundles of minutes (which must be used within a set time limit of between 90 to 365 days) from the Tracfone web site on your home PC or directly from your phone's web browser. For example, if you purchase a block of 120 minutes of airtime, you'll need to use that within 90 days of your first use. When you buy additional airtime minutes, your Tracfone service is extended automatically by another 90 days. Tracfone also offers international long distance calling to over 60 international destinations (including Argentina, Brazil, China, Mexico, most European countries, and many more), which deducts the same amount of minutes from your phone as when you make calls to destinations within the U.S.

    I actually think you must just about have most of the options covered! I chose prepaid (StraightTalk) because they are cheaper than the contract equivalent, with no hidden fees and you aren't tied into a 2 year contract. I've had such a positive experience with prepaid, I'm actually presently looking for a senior plan for my dad. One correction though to your lens- while looking at the various options, i did notice your mention of Tracfone's minutes expiring. They carry over, provided you extend your service date in time-it was one of the pro's for me while researching for my dad. Otherwise a great lens, and so informative, thanks.
