Why Prepaid is the best

Submitted by Dave Won on Sun, 06/05/2011
The average American probably has used prepaid before and may for some reason have changed over to a plan setup because of some bad experiences in service in the past and never taken the plunge back into the prepaid market that can save you some serious dollars.
 
The most compelling thing that I tell people to give prepaid another go is because it's just not the same as it was all those year ago. There has been some really cool phones on the market for a while now, so your not stuck with one of the little prepaid phones that were about 5 or 6 years ago that had no features, the game has changed. One of the other good reasons is that the networks that were used in the old days have vastly improved.
 
I am going to go out on a limb here and say that for the best customer service and the best phones your going to be struggling to beat the following prepaid providers in my eyes.  These are vague as the phones change so much you will get the idea.
 
Combo 1: T-Mobile Prepaid with an Android type phone.
 
Combo 2: Virgin Prepaid with a Blackberry Smart phone.
 
I think if you can spend an extra 5 or 10 dollars extra a month these setups are the best.
 
If you have to have the cheapest deal by far, and customer service is not a high priority then on of the Tracfone prepaid services like Straight Talk is going to be ideal for you.
 
So if your like me and you care about your family and friends, and you want them to save money when times are tough, consider helping them choose a good prepaid phone. There are many new phones coming out all the time and you just have to check them out.
