Questions and Answers
Okay, I'm not a senior, and I don't live in Canada, but I use Virgin Mobile. I know, it really isn't a cell phone company, but it works well, and it's cheap. It's a prepaid plan, no strings, no major up front payments, just $20 every 3 months, minutes are 18 cents (they come out of the $20 prepaid) and I believe they have free phones from their website. Since I live in the US, I go to www.virginmobileusa.com but I'm not sure about Canada. Hope this helps a bit. Goodluck!
Okay I really want to get a plan with texting, but I have to pay for it all myself so I need to make sure I'm getting the best deal. I currently have a AT&T plan and I really like them, but if I want to get texting and stay in my price range I would have to get the senior plan and put it under my Grandma's name. Now that sounds okay but it doesn't include any rollover minutes and it's still a bit pricey. Well I was looking at different cell phone providers and I came across T-mobile. I would be saving around $10 and get 100 more minutes(which i really don't need but they don't like to make low minute plans :[) but I don't think it includes rollover minutes either. Also I don't know anybody who has T-Mobile so I don't know how trustworthy they are. Everyone I know has AT&T or Verizon. Does anyone out there have T-Mobile or know if their plans are good? Do they get good reception? Please help. If you have any other suggestions let me know!
You should probably get the cell phone provider that most of your friends have…I know with ATT it's unlimited texting and calling to people within the network…and I do believe it's that way with Verizon as well. Depends on where you live for Tmobile.
