With T-Mobile ToGo Prepaid Cell Phone, you don’t have to pay monthly payment. Instead you only need to pay for refills online or buying a minute card at your local retails store. Also you can buy a starter kit that has all you need, such as phone, accessories and starting minutes when sign up. Of course, the basic call features are already included.
On the other hand, calls can be expensive when you purchase the lower denomination refill cards.
For example, 10 dollar refill card will cost 33 cents per minutes, and minutes will expire quickly.
There is no credit check, and no initial contract upfront either. With all plans except the Sidekick plan, text messaging costs 10 cents to send and 5 cents to receive. Picture messaging is also available at 25 cents per message.
T-Mobile offers prepaid Sidekick data plans for $1 per day. There seems to be no other web access for any other device for a lesser cost. Nokia and Samsung phones are popular with this service.
