I've been looking to get a phone for convenience. I'm not one who chats on the phone all the time. I was about to buy a phone from Virgin Mobile, but I just saw the T-Mobile To Go rates here,
One option T-Mobile has is: $100 refill card gets 1000 Whenever Minutes and its Expiration is 365 days.
Isn't that better than all the other prepaid plans? Am I doing my "math" right?
Also I've compared several plans. Aren't the features like voicemail, caller ID, text message, and Roaming the same on Boost, Virgin, T-Mobile, and etc prepaid plans?
Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

Do you live in a large city? Check their coverage maps and compare it to cingular and verizon, keep in mind, with prepaid service you probaly will not get roaming. We had T-Mobile and had to get the BBB on our side, If i was you i would not go to t-mobile BOO! T-Mobile They are from hell

I live in Southern California, in Ventura County and travel back and forth to Los Angeles County.
I checked out the T-Mobile coverage maps and at my house it says it should have a strong signal. I'll compare it with the other providers too.
Thanks for the advice.

I current have T-mobile... I wouldn't go with it b/c service it is bad where I live. But ask people who have it in your area, see if they are happy with it. It not that bad really....

We had t-mobile and we had to sue to get out of our contract. They have very bad coverage maps, go with verizon, cingular, virgin mobile, or tracfone. Dont use t-mobile

I ended up going with T-Mobile and it seems to be good. I get about 4 out of 5 bars at my house and full bars on campus, but traveling from place to place it sometimes drops to 2-3 bars. I guess it all depends on where your at.
Overall I feel very satisfied though. Hopefully T-Mobile will only get better.
BOO! T-Mobile
