National Plans

Are there any national rate plans with 2500 minutes? I really don't want to pay for 3000 minutes when I'm constantly around 2400-2500 per month.

I've been a customer for 10+ years and really don't want to go with another carrier but others have plans that match my usage....

I know there are no advertised plans of 2500 anything available less know about?

Thanks for any and all suggestions....

Before you leave Cingular due to this, please make sure that the VZW phones will be able to perform all of the tasks you would require of your phone. I only say this because I just came to Cingular from Verizon because of that exact reason. VZW does not always allow all features to be fully utilized. And I am not only speaking of the bluetooth issues.

Does it not matter to you that Cingular offers Rollover minutes? So what if you only use 2400-2500 minutes/month. What if you have a busy month and need those other 500 minutes - or more. Rollover is a great feature to have and Verizon doesn't have it. Besides, I checked Verizon's website and they only have 2000 or 3000 minute plans. Just like Cingular (same price too). Wouldn't you rather keep Cingular and have Rollover and your TRUE nationwide calling with M2M and N&W?

thanks but all I do with "rollover minutes" is watch them expire!

You could go with the 3000 minute plan and accumulate a good amount of rollover minutes and then cut your plan back to the 2000 minute plan for a while to save some money.

You could upgrade to the 3000 min plan for like 4 months then drop down to the 2000 and you will have at least 2000 rollover to eat up for the next like 4-6 months how does that sound to you?

Aren't rollover minutes nulled when you change plans?

I'm assuming you still have to be within a contract then. I don't think Cingular will let you keep your minutes if you're out of contract and switched lets say from a regional plan to a nation plan.

No what you gain through rollover stays with you until it expires. Whether there is a contract or not. You keep what you pay for.

My other question for you is what plan are you looking at with VzW because all I see is a 2000 and 3000 minute plan. Which, coincedentally, are the same prices as ours. And I also believe like many others on here that to pay for the 3000 minute plan for 6 months then jump down to the 2000 minute plan until you eat through their rollover minutes are done is a great idea for money saving. 🙂
I hope this helps some.
