20% CB at b e f r u g a l. In for a year's service. multiple orders of $30 each for $50 unlimited plan. All I need is a new phone now.
So, you are going to get a year of service with $100 credit for $48. Why not get 3 X $40 plans for $48 and get $120 credit and a year of service?

As I understand it, you have to apply these within 60 days of purchase, so stocking-up to pay multiple months may not work.

They are valid for 1 Year after you apply them. you can apply them immediately so that they'd be taken month after the another. Also, I am not sure about that 60 day thing. Reps told me 1 year.

I need data heavily (office emails all the time). So I have to choose $50 plan.

The expiration changed from 60 days to 1 year (as of December), so this is a good time to stock-up. Thanks for the correction.

What carrier are you coming from? Ptel runs off of the tmobile network so basically the same thing with some missing features but if you have good tmobile signal then you should have the same thing for ptel. I jump the pre-paid world a few years ago and I haven't turned back...saves tons of money.

I think the person said to stack up because you are getting $40 worth for $20...So basically you get a pin that you can apply to your account.

I just tried cutting the sim card to use in Nexus 4 and it worked! What I did was, I ordered a free micro Sim from tmobile a couple of weeks ago...(The deal was also good 2 days ago). Then I simply took the ptel sim card and taped it to the tmobile micro sim card and just cut along the tmobile micro sim card. Worked like a charm.

I just bought a $50 top up card and sim with the code(-$25) I don't see why it wouldn't work.
I will find out next month when my current $10 top up runs out.

Does anyone use PANTECH P9070 BURST on their $40/$50 plan? Will this phone get 4G speed of T-mobile prepaid network? TIA
