Cheap cell + plan for a relative

Cspire if it available in your area. They have a talk only plan.

$25 a month if you choose bank draft option. You’ll have to pay the first payment at store. Then the second manually either online or at store. It takes 2 months for the auto to start pulling from your account. You’ll also need to buy a phone.

I flipped my moms phone to them after ATT tried to screw me over.

 

It’s 2019.
Buy him a normal phone.

 

It’s 2019? Really now?

I’ll take a 1963 4 door Impala with a slant 6 and 3 speed on the column over a POS 2019 Tesla any day. Or any new car.

They still make and sell TALK only phones and plans in 2019. For a good reason

 

How about $6 or $16. You only pay for what you use they run on Sprint and maybe ATT. Ting Rates - Only pay for what you use. Use less? Pay less.

Straight Talk is $30 for 1500 minutes or unlimited for $35 they run on every network. You can bring your own phone and get SIM card for any network you want from Straight Talk or buy one of their phone

 

When did Chevy make a slant six? Asking for a friend!

 

Straighttalk, tracfone, any prepaid phone. Cricket, etc.

Of course there is always Walmart, but...Walgreens, CVS, Family Dollar, Dollar General, Kmart, and many other places you probably see day in an day out have the "Cheap" phones. Can easily find a flip phone for low price, an the plans normally aren't to bad.

On Tracfone...I've been using them off an on for who knows how many years. They've been around forever an they are not designed for the person who has to be on their phone 24/7. Their designed for the person who uses it when they have or need to. Hence the "weird" plans. Yes they go by minutes if I recall properly. Depending on the person the minutes can last for a short time or long...it's up to the user.

Just cause Joe bob there talks on his phone every chance he gets doesn't mean Billy Joe over there does. When I had my last one, I think I had a 400 minute plan. It lasted me most of the month. Then again I didn't use it for email, browsing the internet, when I was bored, for games, etc. I used it for...calling when I needed it or someone needed to reach me an I needed to be reachable. Not to mention it's available in the majority of stores, and they have a lot of towers.

I no longer use them now though. As I did eventually need to be able to do email, an other things through my phone. In my experience though...it worked for what I needed it to work as...a phone. An I'd use them again if I had to. Screw the big companies. Great if others like them but I don't. Just not for me.

As always...YMMV.

Sirscrapntruckalot - Reach out an touch someone.......with a bat.

 

So you only own vehicles that have point ignitions?

 

Dollar General sells phones that you can buy 40$ a Mo. phone cards at W/mart that cost 20 to 30$ for the phone?

 

Nope, didn’t say that. And neither did the OP.

I do own devices that are internet capable, that have NEVER been connected. The data those devices contain are of no importance to anyone but me.

There are still things in this world worth protecting.

 

I don’t know that they ever did. Does your friend have interest in buying one? Asking for a friend.
