Good to know. Will have to look into it. If i could get our bill down to under $100 a month for 2 phones i would be happy.
beware the data speeds on straight talk.
they're a virtual carrier, so you will get throttled when the towers get busy. They also only have a few NOCS around the country, so latency is high.
We did straight talk for about 2 years and it worked fine and we were happy, but then as it got more popular the data speeds became so slow that it was useless. literally could not even get it to pull up google maps.
maybe they've upgraded for the growth since then, but be aware that they're going to be the first customers throttled when the towers get busy.
check the pre paid forums on howardforums
lots of good stuff about current network availability in there.
edit:
I misspoke earlier. our renewal is $40 a month per line, because $5 credit for setting up auto pay. I currently have 4.5GB of high speed data accumulated.
