Most unlimited phone services such as Cricket and MetroPCS charge cheap unlimited service with a bad coverage. Most areas are select where coverage is available and the rest is roaming for $.19 to $.59. There are also the unlimited service with a good coverage but very expensive. For the unlimited plan with Verizon, the prices start at $99 and up. Same as AT&T’s contract service.

Now, the prepaid market is booming because Straight Talk is owned by Verizon and Tracfone. Their phones are sold at Wal-Mart and the Unlimited Plan is $45 or you can get the $30 All You Need Plan for 1,000 minutes and text, free 411 and 30MB of data. They do not support Night & Weekends, so I suggest the Unimited Plan unless your not a big talker. They offer the Verizon coverage without roaming.

Also, Boost Mobile, offers all of their services unlimited including walkie-talkie for $50. They also offer a $1 a day plan for Night and Weekends and Mobile-to-Mobile with anytime being $.10 a minute. Their phones are sold at Wal-Mart starting at $40 and up. Boost Mobile offers an Nationwide iDen Coverage from Nextel and CDMA coverage from Sprint without roaming.
