DC Cell phone Bill Blues....

Why?
5. They function as GPS based tracking devices for the government and law enforcement(so they know where you are at all times)

Jusy go to garage sales and get old but semi decent cell phones for REALLY cheap and load the prepaid minutes onto them. The government dosnt even know you are using that number (I could be wrong).

I think you can only use phones that enable prepaid cards to be used

A cell phone that has no contract can only dial 2 numbers: 911 for emergenies and 611 to sign up a contract.

I donate my old phones to charity for tax purposes, they are worth a fixed $189 each.

Good to know that.

Aren't prepaid phones "unlocked" phones? If you swap the sim chip from an prepaid phone to another phone with a contract would it make the contract phone an unlocked phone?

BTW, does anyone know the when number portability takes effect? I feel a need to agitate my provider for a better deal, since my current phone is looking busted and tired.

Don't feel bad, I got hit with a $150 bill, although Vegas was supposed to be a local area for me. AT&T conviently "changed" my plan when they bought out Suncom, and neglected to notify me. After 2 hours of attempting to get out of it, I realized my efforts were futile. Fuck them, I paid it and ditching AT&T.. bastards.
