Ultramobile $3/month, unlimited name changes

[speshpresh]

I found an inexpensive phone service!
I walked into T-Mobile with an old iphone. I paid for Pay Go (also called Ultramobile). It's a prepaid phone service. I get 30 texts/minutes every 30 days for $3. To get started, it cost $10 to activate my old iphone. I paid $28 for 6 months of service ($10+$18). They put a SIM card into my iphone and activated it on the spot.
When I logged into ultramobile.com, I can change the personal info as much as I want. So I put in my stealth name. If paypal ever wants to match the phone number to my stealth name....it should verify.
Changing the number in the future shouldn't be a problem. Not sure if they would charge $ for that though.

My tracfone just arrived, but im wondering if this is a better option for me. Do they allow you to change your number? How do I check if my old phone is compatible?

This is also what I use on one of my accounts.. One of the cheaper real phone options out there.

This does sound very good. Let us know how changing the number goes.
