question about usage meter online

[vigor21215]

I use the nextel online to track my usage.. through some strange turn of events (added text messaging ) I have an extra 60 mins of bonus time to go with the 100 I normally have. Checked my usage and the 60 bonus are still there and my normal mins are being used instead...


Rate plan: Natl Free Incoming Plus 400

Cellular Usage

Minutes Included Used Remaining Additional Used
Anytime 400.00 343.00 57.00
Free Incoming Unlimited 2481.00 N/A N/A
Night/Weekend: Unlimited 749.00 N/A N/A
Bonus Anytime 160.00 100.00 60.00 N/A


Direct Connect Usage

Direct Connect minutes reflect both your Direct Connect and Nationwide Direct Connect usage. Group Connect usage (if any) is listed separately.

Minutes Included Used Remaining Additional Used
Direct Connect Unlimited 311.49 N/A 0.00

Now my billing cycle is over on the 20th so I am in no danger of rolling into overages but still, shouldnt the bonus mins be used before my anytime mins get used??

When you add text messaging, you get another 60 bonus minutes for 12 months. It's a normal thing and has been around for a while. I belive that if you add full-service web (which includes text messaging), that adds 100 bonus minutes instead of 60.

Your bonus minutes get used last after your alotted plan minutes are gone.

The way mine works is it uses my free minutes first then my plan minutes.
