Like the above comment, I keep it active with $20 re-ups every 3 months -- $80 per year. At the time I was researching phones last year that was the lowest cost that I could find on a prepaid phone. I rarely use mine and have about $50 built up on mine right now, but I do love having it for the insurance and those times when I need to be in contact with some one.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12364613.post-1134491712985961972005-12-13T10:35:00.000-06:002005-12-13T10:35:00.000-06:00I missed the cell phone discussion.

I buy $20 worth of minutes every 3 months(to keep it active), with there always being at least $10 left each period to roll over. At the time I got this phone Virgin was the only one I knew that let you roll over minutes. It has worked very well for me.<BR/>My brother recently got a Virgin phone and I think he paid $35 for it brand new. That seems cheap to me, but I haven't really looked into it since my 2 year old phone works just fine.Laura Talberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02659335649142675534noreply@blogger.com
