the only people that cal me from missouri have t-mobile so we get free mobile to mobile but i just have had the exact same number for 6 years and dont want to change my area code... i know about the long distance charges, is that the only difference?

t-mobile doesnt charge long distance fees, they give you a set amount of minutes and that is nationwide, the only people that will get charged long distance is the people who call from a land line that isnt 660 or people that dont have a nationwide cell phone plan

and t-mobile doesnt have roaming, i think sprint and nextel are the only ones that still have that old feature and charge you more

You will need to contact Tmobile customer service. Since there is free roaming on tmobile if your using more than 50% of your calls in another area code than you currently has your service setup then you will have your contract canceled after a few months more than likely. That happened to me. They can give you a new phone number and since all your friends and family have tmobile then it still wont cost them extra to call you. Call them asap. Cust Serv # is 800-937-8997

If its not included as a part of your package, you will pay long distance fees for any calls not coming or going to 660.

It all depends on your plan your going to have to contact the tmoble customer service to find out. If you have a National plan more than likely you won't be charged.

Yes. When you meet new friends in California it will be long distance for them to call you and vice versa.

You will pay long distance to use it locally or check your voicemail.
