Cell Phone No Contract Plans
There are basically two types of cell phone no contract plan available – the prepaid plan and the “pay as you go” plan. If you opt for a prepaid plan, you will pay for your monthly usage before you start. This gives you the advantage of being able to change your needs in a month’s time. This kind of plan offers considerable flexibility and can be a great solution for you if you’re on a budget or in a transitional phase of your life. A starter phone is included within this plan and a number of additional benefits could also be available.
If you choose to “pay as you go”, then you will not need to pay anything in advance and will not require a credit card for payment. Phone cards are easily available in convenience stores, shopping malls or gas stations and you simply need to purchase a certain amount each month to keep the account active. Other than that, there are no commitments, no contracts, no credit card requirements, no credit checks and no deposits.
