BellSouth.

$89/month
10 hours time/month
No long distance charges (in U.S.)
No roaming charges (in U.S.)

This plan is perfect for me, since I'm a business traveller. I make lots of calls, usually always while I'm away from home.

Don't like to use it when driving: it's way too distracting. I've ALMOST done a few stupid things while fumbling with it.

Cool

I have Alltel. Service bundle $51.00 includes 300 peak/unlimited nights and weekends with call waiting and all the other little gadgets. This fee also includes my pager service and my internet connection.

Part of this service bundle requires me to have Alltel for my long distance carrier so they are on my computer line (MCI for my main line). They charge me 9 cents per minute for long distance on my regular phone and on my cell phone. Not a bad deal.

I used GTE before and I was very pleased with them but they didn't have local service where I moved to. Alltel's internet service has been okay but I liked PACBELL's better, they had a good home page and relativley no connectivity problems in the 2 years I had them. Alltel a few problems in the month I've been using it.

I have GTE with the 1,400 min. plan for 104.95 per month, free nights and weekends, caller id, bla bla bla, I routinely use more than 1,400 mins per month but I would get screwed on weekends if I switched plans. I hate cell phone companies they get you coming and going. At least I get a discount on my internet service.

conqsoft, do you know anybody on the inside?
Was this a special promotion or something?
Alltel is getting over on me.
Crappy analog and less minutes.
No caller ID or any other goodies.

Cool

I have an excellent plan.

I use my brother's phone. He wears it on his belt. At least once a week when I see him I give him a big hug and the next thing you know I have unlimited free days. The big jerk thinks I actually like him, especially since I keep 'finding' his phone for him,
"Paco, looks like you dropped this again. You've got to be more careful Bro."
