Maybe, it's time to check in on the major pre-paid cell services again to see what if anything has changed. It's nice to see some competition in this space. Mike: Thanks for the heads up.

So a long distance call goes from 45 cent/min to 24 cent/min. This was decisive for me, as I often drive long distances and make call from outside the local service area, though not often enough to make a plan worth my money.

For example, telus offers the ability to maintain a $0.29 per minute service for an automated payment of $10 each 30 days. There is no need to keep trqack of your expiries, either. Other plans may have similar options, so dig into the information on their websites a bit & find out! One of the advantages of all of these plans is that you avoid paying the network access fees of about $7 per month. For occasional users, they are the best option.
