How many minutes do you have on your cell phone plan?
How many minutes do you use each month?
Do you ever go over and have to pay a ton after the free airtime runs out?
What carrier do you use?
Would you change to another plan/carrier?
Pros/Cons to your carrier.

I talk to other Verizoners for free, so as long as a lot of people I talk to use Verizon, I am ok.... However, I still go over, so I need to increase my minutes.... Thanks for bringing this to my attention!

My cell phone appeared magically in my purse. I thought there was a cell phone fairy. I have never received a bill and I don't know what plan I'm on.

Did I mention I sleep with a guy who's in the business?

How many minutes do you have on your cell phone plan? Share 800 w/DH

How many minutes do you use each month? 450 PCS to PCS, 250 Peak, 150 Non Peak

Do you ever go over and have to pay a ton after the free airtime runs out? Rarely, but I have and it's $0.40/min.

What carrier do you use? Sprint PCS

Would you change to another plan/carrier? No, because most of the people I talk to regularly have Sprint. The main exception is Stacey and she's an oddball with US Cellular.

Pros/Cons to your carrier: I get charged airtime to check my voicemail. It's only a pain in the ass when you've gone over your limit by 20-30 minutes and you checked your voicemail 40 times that month at ~1 min each.

We have TMobile, share 1000 minutes. Have only gone over once or twice.
Usually, most minutes are wasted.

Aire jr is on Cingular and has approximately 16 minutes a month, to hear him complain. Twisted Evil

Both have provided most excellent service and most excellent warranty repair as well.

I wouldn't switch.

How many minutes do you have on your cell phone plan?I have 900 minutes now...just bumped mine up from 700. That's 15 hours of talking people. Holy crap!
How many minutes do you use each month? 700+ for sure
Do you ever go over and have to pay a ton after the free airtime runs out? I have been and had to change my plan. It's only costing me $4.99 more a month to have those extra 200 minutes
What carrier do you use? Verizon
Would you change to another plan/carrier? Not right now.
Pros/Cons to your carrier. I have not had any problems with it. I like their different plans and the camera phone I got was basically free.
I still cannot believe that I talk on the phone for more than 11 hours. That's a ton. It's usually with my commutes back/forth though. It makes the drives home from work nice. However, that's a ton of talking.
