Free Cell Phone outlet besides LetsTalk?

The only site that I am aware of that sells cell phones for free with a 2-year cell phone plan is LetsTalk. Is anyone aware of another site? I'm specifically looking for the Black Motorola RAZR v3xx, but LetsTalk only offers it in grey.

Try www.wirefly.com

But how is their coverage? Can you use it where you live, work, travel, etc? If not it is too expensive.

Wirefly and LetsTalk just resell service for Cingular, Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile, and Alltel. Usually they will sell their phones cheaper than what the carriers offer the phone. They can do this and still profit because of the 'bounty' they get for bringing in new subscribers.

For anybody concerned with problems that may arise, if it's possible you may want a refund, if you want less of a hassle with a mail-in rebate, or basically any other customer service issue that may arise, it may be best to pay a little extra and buy directly from the provider.

Also note, sometimes Letstalk and Wirefly don't offer the full 15 or 30 day trial period. Sometimes it's just a 7 day trial and that 7 days starts when the package is mailed. There have been a lot of unhappy Letstalk and Wirefly customers but if you know exactly what you want and you're not wishy-washy and don't expect much customer service, it can be a good way to save some $$$.

Question, once you get your phone and you get it activated (and assuming the phone works as advertised) you now deal directly with your service provider?
