There is another new cell phone service out there now. At least new to me. They have a one page ad in the September/October issue of AARP magazine. Their not very forth coming with info about their services. But it looks like it would cost $14.99 a month plus taxes and what ever else they can figure out to charge you for, but it does not say what you would get in return for your money. O'yeah there is a charge for the phone which they seem to want to keep a secret until you are well hooked and also a $35 set up fee.
Has anyone tried this out or can come up with more info about the service. From the coverage map they put out it looks like they have the midwest and east pretty well covered but it looks a might skimpy for the west.

I replied once and it got lost so I'll try again altho I wont remember what I said the first time.
We have a Jitterbug and have used it for years and are happy with it. It doesn't take pictures or access the internet. It's just a phone. yes we had to buy it for I think about $150 but I only pay $10 per month. I used to have AT&T and paid about $40 per month so I've more than paid for the phone by now. We have the cheapest plan and pay 35cents per minute but only when we use it which is seldom. They do offer other plans that have a certain number of minutes available. you should call them and see what they have that might fit your needs, it's not a scam. Very reputable and dependable. We traveled to main and back to CA. and never wanted for service. It works for us.
