Chris, I've used Tracfone for a while. 1G/$10 is it. The service is good 
as long as you don't have to contact customer support. It is the 
absolute worst that I've ever encountered by far. Last year they 
deactivated my wife's phone for no reason without letting us know until 
I paid for another year. (I don't understand why the phone had been 
working for the rest of the year) Anyway, I found out the phone was 
deactivated after paying for another year. Two sim cards later and hours 
on the phone with support I finally found someone to fix the problem. In 
the meantime all of her rollover minutes and data had disappeared into 
the ozone. Support denied any knowledge of it even though I offered 
proof. I gave up because she rarely uses the phone and doesn't need the 
data.
Now we get to last week when I went to town and couldn't connect to 
email. Turns out all my data had vanished WTF! 2.5gb gone over night. I 
hadn't used a gig in more than a year. Not much of a data user.  After a 
hour going though various levels of support I got cut off. I filed a 
report with the Atty Gen office.
Like I said the service was fine until you needed support. So now I 
looking for another no contract cheap service. Anyone have experience 
with Red Pocket Mobile or Liberty Wireless?
