SIM Kit is just for activation. $4.99 at best Buy or 99 cents at T-Mobile.com from time to time. Normally they will charge $15 for the same exact kit.

Then, airtime must be bought at a minimum of $10, but the service is $3/month so you are basically covering for 3 months.

Can you change the phone number and still keep the minutes.

I already have a gsm phone. So If I complete the following order, I'll have a new number, 30 minutes, and 3 months of service?: (also checked tmobile your right. I could get 3 sims for $2.97 :D )

That is correct. Plus, using a real phone numbers solves all of the silly issues you run into testing VoIP phone numbers. I use phone numbers not only for EB, but other marketplaces including Cra.gsL.ist and any other thing I'm involved in or testing that needs real numbers. Messing with all these silly VoIP services that fail 99% of the time is just money lost and extra unneeded frustration.

HMmmm, ok, the free number change possibility makes this even more intriguing and i think i will see if i can pull it off through chat.

Simple Mobile runs on T-Mob. But, this is just something you will have to experiment with on your own. That's all I have ever done. I have other cell providers in my stable, but for various reasons and each have their own benefit. Another one, which runs on AT&T, is H20 which you can get almost anywhere and has been recommended by a few users here. I have not used it myself, but it's readily available and cheap and I see some of their cheap phones in gas stations.

You just have to look around to see what fits you best. And as I have said previously, there are different prepaid services all over the USA who are region specific. So, you may be able to find a good one that no one else can use.

Gotcha. Still a bit expensive when you need even less than that. I'm using a prepaid cell provider that's about 6 bucks for a month, for one phone number. The thing is that I usually know how to get limits, sometimes higher than 10/1000 about 60% of the time with tracfone so far. Sometimes tracfone gives you the 10/1000.

The thing is with this simple mob is that the max I have gotten so far is 10/1000, and one I got 5/500! A new low. But I only tried 3 phone numbers with simple mob.

Maybe tmobile would be more like tracfone.

I use tossibledigits for about 20 phone numbers around $30 a month. I have had same numbers for years and can change them anytime.

yes, i know this now. but, you have also been hard for people to contact and I don't care about a few measly dollars. time is money for me so when i need things, i need them immediately.
