Think unlimited. When it comes to personal communications, just as with credit card limits, the best word you can hear is “unlimited.” With a prepaid cell phone, that’s just the term you should be looking for: unlimited text, messaging, web, email, video, ringtones, you name it. Why pay for each service individually?
Sometimes it’s wise to spend extra money in order to save. Not sure whether you believe that? How about when spending two more dollars puts your cost into a place where the total bill is suddenly reduced by 10%? On a $100 purchase, spending two dollars more to save ten bucks is wise! And so it is with a prepaid cell phone plan laden with features. Instead of accruing numerous add-on charges for exceeding your allotted minutes or texts, it’s wise to pay a bit extra up front for unlimited service.
In an age in which credit cards offer nearly unlimited spending power to do what you want, you shouldn’t expect anything different from your phone. In fact, in an age of feature laden phones, you should demand more than ever before. And if you’re on a prepaid cell phone plan that doesn’t offer unlimited features and minutes, perhaps your needs aren’t being fully met. After all, who jumps out of a plane without a parachute? That’s the equivalent to using a phone that gives you skimpy minutes or services: you’ll probably come up short just when it’s time to make an emergency call!
