Hi, my family is on a cingular family plan, but my little sister is not included in the plan, we bought an unlocked moto v180 from ebay, and what we will plan to do is make my little sister use cingular pay as you go. She borrows my other sister's phone sometimes when she goes to school. She doesnt use the cellphone that much, she only uses it when she calls to get picked up from school. So, How does pay as you go work?, should i just buy a prepaid sim card and slap into the v180?, does cingular sells prepaid sim cards? i used to have a tracfone, but it had no sim cards, just wondering if its different for cingular. Thanks

Re: Go phone
Yes, just go into a local Cingular retailer and pick up a Ciingular Pay As You Go sim card. With Pay As You Go the minutes are $.10/min. anytime, unlimited Mobile to Mobile(she will be able to talk to any Cingular customer as much as she'd like), with a $1/day access charge only on the days she uses it. The card denominations are $15(exp. 30 days), $25(exp. 90 days), $50(exp. 90 days), $75(exp. 90 days) and $100(exp. 180 days).

Re: Go phone
Or buy the cingular SIM off ebay and pay about $30 less then at the Cingular store. If she wont use the phone that much, $1/day plus airtime is kind of expensive, $200/year. But if she will be doing a lot of in-network calling then that might be worth it. It might be cheaper to get a cingular SIM and add her to the family plan.
If you want cheap prepaids, look into Beyond Wireless GSM, Oxygen GSM, or Tmobile prepaid. All these SIMs will work in your phone, and will cost much less then what Gophone charges. And give you more minutes, longer expirations, and NO daily fees.
