Question Net10 Wireless?

http://www.net10wireless.com/home_pa...task=home_page

Virgin Mobile sucks as a pay as you go phone so I was considering going with a phone plan. Then I found this site and I was wondering has anyone heard of this company? I did some basic math figuring and found out that with most contracts unless you talk an assload of weekend and night minutes you come out to paying around 12 cents a minute unless you go with a really big plan. So I was wondering has anyone heard of net10 or know anything about their service?

Thanks

looks like coverage area blows goats, it's sprint (same as virgin mobile)plus it's $.10 a minute from what I read virgin has been fine for me (oither than coverage area)cingular has the best coverage area

Sounds like a decent deal, never heard of them though. All my friends use sprint so it works great to talk to them with the whole free sprint to sprint thing.

verizon sucks I had to sue them when my phone got stolen because they didn't shut it off when reported tried charging me for the calls the thief made from St Louis(I lived in Atlanta at the time) and it was in the hours with a few overseas calls

Arch you may be happy paying $0.25 minute but I'm not.
