Is Sprint "pay as you go" a good deal?

Answer by  NGoodson (3395)

Sprint's "pay as you go" is a good deal if you don't frequently use your cell phone. If you don't use it daily or it's just used for emergencies or special circumstances then you will probably save money but if you use your phone a lot you're probably better off going with a contract plan.

It really depends on much you plan on using it. If it's for little use then yes. If you are using it as your only contact phone number then no.

It depends on your usage. Sprints pay-as-you-go plan works differently than most others. One note is that Sprint requires a $150. 00 payment that is returned to you over time.

If you use your cell phone sparingly, pay-as-you-go is an excellent alternative to standard rate plans. If you use your cell phone too much, they are also a good tool to help you cut down on your airtime. Calculate your costs against how much you airtime you anticipate you will need. That will determine whether pay-as-you-go is a good option.

It can be, it all depends on what you want to use it for! If you're just texting, there are probably better deals, but Sprint has good deals for per-minute rates. Always check with each company that offers what you're looking for - there are always new wireless companies popping up that have good deals for pay-as-you-go deals.

No it isn't they actually have hidden charges that they don't tell you about. They are not the best phone company to go to. There are other better ones out there.
