new phone for college - 18/f
I asked a similar question about about buying a laptop for college haha now I need to find a phone too. I've had a prepaid virgin mobile phone for as long as I can remember. I rarely ever have minutes, I mostly just text. Well now since I'm going away to college, my parents need to keep in touch with me so they're going to buy me my first 'real phone' haha. I'm looking for a cheap plan that would give me a good monthly deal for texting/talk. I heard cricket has some good plans? Someone once told me about a phone service that will give you unlimited text/talk for $35 but I can't remember what service it was? I'm used to only paying $20/month for texting so I really want to keep this cheap. The only functions I would need would be the capability to text/talk, a QWERTY keyboard and a camera (if possible). Any recomendations? Thanks.

Maybe give some free advice about: Computers?
cricket is pretty much the only company that would give you that good of a deal. you dont sign a contract with them so that's nice, but you do have to pay full price for the phones (since other companies usually give you free/cheap phones because you sign a 2 year contract). Just make sure you check cricket's coverage area (ie does it cover the area your college is in etc.) because I used to have cricket and the coverage was pretty bad.
the next best thing would probably be virgin mobile and then sprint, but i dont think either of them go as low as 35/month.
