I have an old samsung J3 phone, not 5g compatible. I think it was a 3g phone. Anyway, the battery is dying, new batt. is $14. Is it a waste of time? Time to upgrade my phone? Thoughts...
If I have to get a phone I want something simple and cheap. I have no cell service where I live, just a land line. I have a “Pay-as-you-Go” cell phone plan. Not a bad deal… once a year I buy $100 in minutes and I have a phone in my truck... emergencies etc.
I bought an unlocked samsung A13 last winter. I only bought it for the camera. It has no phone service set up (can call 911). All the accounts I found were $$$… couldn’t have my same pay..go plan either. At least not the A13 for some reason. I wasn’t about to pay a monthly bill for a phone that doesn’t work where I spend 90% of my time. I already have a monthly phone bill and a phone with a ‘find’ button on the base!
Does anyone have a current simple phone that works with pay..go plan? I’d be happy with a flip phone. Thoughts?
--------------------------------------
In case anyone needs a simple phone plan, cheap … My pay as go plan is $100 yearly. If I don’t use all the minutes in 12 months they expire… Except! If I buy another $100 in minutes they are added together. I only use about $25 a year.
Twice over the years I’ve built up over $400 in minutes. Once I called att and explained my situation. They rolled my money over to the next year but I didn’t have to buy another $100 worth. They did it to give me a chance to use some of it up. Nice of them…
The other time was my fault. I almost never make calls, go months sometimes. I forgot when my year was up and my minutes expired. 3 months had gone by before I realized I couldn’t make calls. So I had to start over.
Anyway, I like the plan, just have to find a cheap phone I can use.
