do you still pay the monthly bill? how does it work when you call and have them suspend incoming/outgoing calls?
...
What happens and what you pay depends on why the line is being suspended.
Usually they are suspended for lost stolen reasons, then we add a feature that deactivates the SIM card. The phone is inactive while the feature is in place. You still pay all mrcs and will have no access to voice mail.

Monthly Recurring Charges ie. your montly voide/data plan charges. People may suspend their accounts for any reasons such as hardships or anything of the such.

You might want to go down to the lowest plan with no data options. It's $39.99 a month now. You might compare that to the termination fee.

Suspensions occur for the following reasons:
Non-Payment - Customer has exceeded the threshold for non-payment
Customer Request - Customer has requested that phone be temporarily suspended, which allows customers to reserve their cellular numbers.
Lost/Stolen Phones - Customer's phone has been lost or stolen.
Voluntary - Customer requests temporary suspension, e.g., vacation.
Return Check/Payment - Customer has a dishonored payment.
Returned Mail - Customer's invoice has been returned and the customer cannot be reached for updated information
Activation - Suspension of phone prior to shipment for sales purposes
Military - Customer is deployed to military; monthly charges are not incurred for this type of suspens...
