Minutes expire really fast, one day per dollar. So you spend five dollars, if you don't use the minutes they expire after five days, and so on.
That's ridiculous.
I wish there was a provider that charges credit cards based on minutes actually used. Personally I much rather pay a high per minute fee than get screwed prepaying for minutes which then expire.

This would be great for back-up phones (or you know, that phone you give to your mom for emergencies, which she never uses).

Man there I thought Cricket had a winner. ]]>Oct 11th 2008 6:20AMhttp://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2008/10/11/leaps-cricket-unveils-unique-per-day-paygo-prepaid-service/http://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2008/10/11/leaps-cricket-unveils-unique-per-day-paygo-prepaid-service/Oct 11th 2008 9:56AMhttp://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2008/10/11/leaps-cricket-unveils-unique-per-day-paygo-prepaid-service/http://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2008/10/11/leaps-cricket-unveils-unique-per-day-paygo-prepaid-service/Oct 11th 2008 11:10AM
