Any info is appreciated! inkedchick 10-01-2007, 09:07 PM i don't do collect calls, he does the prepaid calls from his inmate account, if he calls long distance it is .23 per minute, but if you get a 2nd cell phone line with your cell company (usually 9.99 per month for a "family plan") and get a local number to TH it's .06 per minute...our calls are less than $20 per month as opposed to $69 before the phone number change.

Im trying to see what's the cheaper route to take. nursema 03-10-2008, 07:56 PM Hey, inked, how did you get a local TH number? I tried to do that with my phone company and they told me no way. I would love to save us some money on the phone...it is killing me. I pay a fortune for my cell phones here and he still pays a bundle to call me. Let me know your secrets. * As for collect calls, I am sure it is a lot! It is much cheaper to pay for his minutes and you will have 300 a month. It is a better way to go. I am sure they will take you for a ride if you accept collect calls. I don't even know if they can do that from there?? Good luck!

Jayzwife 03-11-2008, 01:33 PM Are the minutes free that they give them if not how much does it cost? I have another line added to my cell plan that is a local number so he can call that number instead of my illinois number. the1stMrsSMith 03-12-2008, 05:35 PM i have two cells on one plan. one with my hometown area code and the other with a local to fci terre haute. i have sprint and it was nothing to have it done took less than an 1/2 hour to do it. just call you cell company and ask. windygirl 03-16-2008, 08:17 PM Hi nursema I have tollfreeforwarding that i use i get a local number and his phone calls get forwarded to me any country I am in. |
