I highly recommend not using pagepluscellular.
Not because their phone service is bad, but because their customer
service is non-existent and their business plan is horrible.

What they do is, they make you renew (buy more minutes) every 120
days. First of all, this is really stupid because they do NOT even
offer a one year service plan. So, you have to mark your calendar and
remember to buy more minutes every 4 months, even if you don't need
any more, OR they will not only cut off your service, but ALSO TAKE
AWAY ALL YOUR SAVED MINUTES.

I had over 600 minutes saved, and because I was ONE DAY late, they
took away all my minutes. I talked to the supervisor and told them if
they don't give me back at least half my saved minutes, I would cancel
my service, never use them again, and go on the net and tell everyone
how lousy their service is. They would not budge on the saved minutes,
so I am keeping my promise.

Did you read the Policy before you bought this ?

Any particular reason you posted this in the CINGULAR group?

As opposed to the far more common 60 or 90 days, the b*st*rds!

True- that's a bit of a minus. Many other prepaid providers do offer an
annual option.

True, but a $10 minimum purchase, that's $40/year- far cheaper than the
typical $80-100 one-year options.

Yeah, I left that out for brevity- AT&T throws them out at the end of a year,
instead, IIRC. Still nice, of course- if you didn't use the minutes in 12
months, you probably didn't need them anyway! ;-) (Kind of the point I
made to the OP, an admitted casual user- while losing minutes certainly
stinks, crying over losing minutes you'd never use anyway seems pretty
pointless!)

Correct.

Yep- when they first came up with rollover I loved it- while my usage was
fairly consistent, my wife's was all over the map- 150 minutes one mont ,
600 the next. Rollover let me drop to a lower plan rather than buy one to
cover her "high" months.

That is NOT how prepaid works in all instances.
Tracfone at least will sell you a 1 year contract, AND they will call
you and email you when your service is about to expire (not to mention
that they have a BIG message on the phone screen as to how many min/
time you have left on your contract).
