iPhone for Net10 over ST.

[punisherbv]

So from what i see on reports that the 50 dollar "unlimited" plan is used in 50,000 minutes as opposed to separate uses for talk, text and data. And from what i see here that Net10 hardly even threatens to shut people off for anything is this correct?

In other words does it seem like im better off using the iPhone on Net10 instead of Straight Talk? Because billing you by minutes sounds much easier/better to me than always being concern about getting any phone call or text.

My last question is because it seems like my brother is getting me an iPhone for my birthday in Octoberish (because of the release of new iPhone and price drops on the older ones). Is that how can i buy months of service with Net10 like ST offers? Unless i missed something lol.

I say give it a try. Sign up for auto renew and it's $45/month. Keep an eye out on the CallingMart FaceBook page, they occasionally offer 7% off of their normal $49 cost and it's tax free.

Right what i was asking was that does Net10 have the 3-6 month service deals like Straight Talk has? Because i like to pay my services well enough in advance to ease things off lol.

You can also go through calling mart if you don't want to auto-up. Relative to local taxes, I actually save a buck a month vs auto-up.
No multi-month service blocks are avail. w/ N10. You could just credit a bunch of cards to you account and they would be held in "reserve" until needed.

I am currently a ST customer, but I am interested in this Net10 question as well.

OK well thank you! That answers my question. I can also get discounts through PagePlus Direct since they carry Net10 as well!

Because it seems like Net10 bills you differently than Straight Talk. I have nothing against Straight Talk at all that's not my point. But it seems like no one vents at all really on Net10 forum because like someone pointed out earlier they bill you by MINUTE usage and the fine print says so not by Straight Talks "secret unknown limit". So it really appears there's a lot less headaches with smartphone use on Net10 than Straight Talk and again it is unlimited but with a LARGE cap that's impossible to even reach.

Stock up on a couple 7% off cards; add 'em to reserve and you have a defacto prepaid auto pay setup for less than the official auto pay.
