5.0 out of 5 stars Easy prepaid, September 30, 2003

The top-up card is pretty easy to use: you buy it, you go to Virgin Mobile USA's website, and you "top up" using the PIN code on the card. There's no expiration date on the card so you can use it to refill your Virgin Mobile minutes whenever. This also means if you see a discounted card somewhere, get a bunch and save.

Unfortuantely you cannot use the top-up card from your VM phone; you must go through the website.

You need to top up every 90 days (not 3 months). If you fail to do so, you can't use the phone, but you get a 60-day grace period (and keep the unused balance). If you still don't top up after the grace, your number will be deactivated, at which point you need to reactivate it. Good thing is, activation is totally free.

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't Need a Stink'n Contract, June 13, 2005

I shopped around before deciding to go with Virgin Mobile. I was a previous Sprint PCS customer so I knew the Virgin Mobile Network would be adequate (they use the Sprint Network). The Virgin Mobile plan is simple and there are no hidden fees. Here is the breakdown...$0.25 a minute for the first 10 minutes of the day and $0.10 a minute after that. Or, $0.35 a day and $0.10 a minute. Text messaging is free to receive and $0.10 to send.

You have to top-off your Virgin Mobile phone at least $20.00 every 90 days. If you don't use your phone much, but enjoy the convenience of having it, it will only cost $6.66 a month to operate.

5.0 out of 5 stars Virgin Mobile Is The Way To Go For Prepaid Cell Phones!!!, March 10, 2005

Virgin Mobile is the best prepaid service provider. TracFone is just HORRIBLE (minutes go as high as $.50 a minute and text messages are $.30 each and I think you have to pay to receive text messages with TracFone. With Virgin Mobile, its $.25 a minutes for the first ten minutes of the day and $.10 a minute after that. Text messages are $.10 to send and free to receive. A lot of content is available at virginmobileusa.com for putting on your phone (ringtones, celebrity voicemail greetings, MTV and Comedy Central Content, and a lot more). You only have to play $20 every three month which is A LOT cheaper than most cell phone service providers. And best of all, NO CONTRACTS!!! Virgin Mobile is the way to go for prepaid phone service.
