I use T-Mobile prepaid. At the time I bought it they had the best deal. I can't tell you if that's still the case though. And by best deal I'm talking about the price of the phone. I wanted a flip phone because I can't stand the candybar style. They also had the best national coverage.

I pay $100 for 1000 minutes that has a one year expiration date. But all the minutes get a new expiration date whenever I add minutes. For example, if I have 400 minutes remaining when they're about to expire I can add another 100 minutes for $10 and all 500 minutes will have a new expiration date a year out.

I've had these phones for about a year and a half. I bought 2 phones for $50 each. I've paid $110 total so far on minutes for my phone (I don't use it much). And paid about $400 for my wife (who uses hers a lot more). So it's cost me about $35/month.

My only complaint is there are no free minutes. Not even for mobile-to-mobile calls. Also, when we're in very out of the way areas (camping, etc) and other carriers like at&t are getting some coverage (even very little) we get nothing, zilch, nadda.
