I was allowed to get prepaid for my iPhone, but is that because it was unlocked? I was switching back from T-Mobile. They said the data would be available on 6/21. Also for the $25/month prepaid, do the 250 minutes include nights and weekends?

Alright, well 250 is probably enough for most months, but would Google voice also work if I need additional minutes? From reading the description of the app, it still uses the minutes of my phone plan.

I switched to the 250 minute go phone plan, but now I can only by the 50 MB data package? Why? edit: I guess I can just buy two of them (100 MB is more than I need anyway), but I still don't get it. actionjackson fucked around with this message at 20:53 on Jun 28, 2013 |

booshi posted:Because that's how phone plans work? That is the cheapest go phone plan for a smart phone, so of course it's going to offer crappy data plans, so you buy a better plan. Well okay, but it was pretty funny how you couldn't buy 100 MB for $10, but you could buy 50 MB for $5 each twice.

I use pretty minimal data, I just buy one or two 50 MB blocks a month. Why is it when I utilize data out of town the same processes use so much more? For example I was just in SF, and after just accessing a few webpages it told me I had used something like 15 MB of data, which is insane. I have roaming turned off, so I'm not sure what's going on.

Well it was SF so probably, but I think I turned off my wi-fi in the hotel because their's was very expensive.

It looks like I was using a lot of background data on several apps (Play Store, NYTimes, FB). I'll disable that, for some reason it was utilized much more when I was out of town.

I have a go phone plan with 250 minutes. I just got disconnected on a call because it said I ran out. Then I got a message saying that I ran out of minutes, and any more minutes I use will be charged at the normal rate. However I'm not able to make calls at all (I get the message saying I have none left), so I'm confused - shouldn't it let me call at a by the minute rate for now, just like it says?

Hey! I have an unlocked smartphone with a gophone plan (the $40 one). I ran out of minutes, and got a message saying every additional minute would be 10 cents. However when I try to make a call it says I need to refill. Why won't it let me make calls at the additional charge?

I'm going to the UK in a couple weeks. I currently have an unlocked Nexus 4 that I use the $40 gophone monthly plan on. If I try to use this phone to either call or text another US number, will I be charged roaming fees while overseas?

Hey I had a quick question, I have a Moto X unlocked that I use with AT&T's GoPhone. I bought it 13 days ago and am actually returning it today or tomorrow because I bought a version with more capacity that was on sale directly through Motorola. My question is can I take the sim in my current phone and simply put it in the new phone, or will that not work? Otherwise I can just bring both in and have them switch it over.

I returned the phone I had just bought. That was no problem and they even helped me blog on my screen protector. I got home and the display wouldn't come on after making a call. Eventually I realized the proximity sensor was blocked because he had put the protector on upside down!

Question about GoPhone plans - I'm going to be in Europe next month so I don't get any phone service when I'm there. What happens if someone tries to call me? Will they get my voicemail or nothing?

Duckman2008 posted:I guess it would go to voicemail since it just wouldn't work? The reason I ask is because I'm looking for a new job and I want to change my voice-mail during that time to instruct any recruiters to contact me by email during that time. Hence I want to make sure they will at least get my voice-mail

Duckman2008 posted:I may have a better solution for you: Create a google voice account, give that number to everyone, and you can check voicemails and call over wifi from overseas. So if I get a google voice account, I can port my mobile number to that, then use the hangouts dialer to make and receive calls over wi-fi when I'm overseas?
