Help out my grandma


Hi I'm looking to get a cheap prepaid phone for my grandma. She'll probably only use a couple minutes a month if that. So what would be the best company to go with? I don't know much about prepaid phones but I know iwould want to get her a plan that the minutes don't expire for a long time. Thanks to anyone who can help me out.

Re: Help out my grandma


I can only think of one off the top of my head and that's virgin mobile. It would end up costing you about $6.67 a month ($20 every 3 months) for about 67 minutes a month (200 every 3 months). I'd say that's pretty cheap compared to my $60 dollars a month. Now if that is enough minutes than that is probably the cheapest way to go if you live in an area where virgin mobile is giving you service.

Best of luck to your grandma :-)

We need to know where she lives to see what options are there first.

Yes I would say virgin mobile, or alltel prepaid I think with alltel the mins never expired but you had to pay a usage fee everyday you used it(not positive make sure to check before signing up).

It's probably too late to help, but my grandma and mom has T-Mobile. They each paid $100 for 1000 minutes for one year. Whatever minutes they have unsued carries over to the next year.
