Pay-as-you-go plan???

[nomad005]

Is there anyway I can get a pay-as-you-go-plan with any provider. This is bull**** that they make you buy a phone, that no less cannot be transferred to another phone. Some one help me out... I wish we have providers like Europe does. I hope you all know you're are getting screwed in the ass with your plans.

my plan is amazing. i have 4 lines, 3 unlimited dataplans with 4 smartphones, unlimited texts and talking, and half off any at&t-store-sold phone accessory. all for $140.

my plan is perfectly fine because i'm a post-paid customer, just like 90% of the rest of the people in the US who own smartphones. this isn't europe. our businesses aren't regulated by the same laws, and so our phones are not all unlocked. we deal with it. if we don't like it, i've never, -ever- had a problem with AT&T giving me an unlock code. if you took the time to sign up for an actual contracted plan you would have zero of the headaches you keep making posts about. in the US, prepaid phones are made and marketed for those who can't afford the credit liability of a post-paid plan. their first intention is not for international people coming in and using them; and at that, they would probably expect those people to have their own phones to bring in if they don't like the ****ty pre-paid selection here (since yours are all unlocked anyway).

not all people are situated in one place. maybe when i've gotten a steady job and have settled, you bitting criticism will have merit.

and maybe when you do, your bitter criticism of our phone plans will have merit as well.

pretty butthurt about you phone plan are you?

The contract exists solely for the subsidized phone price. I'm sure you could find a way to pay full retail and have a "pay as you go" type plan if you really want to.

Americans love buying on credit, our phone plans surprise you?
