do you have to be 18 or older to buy one? i want to get a cingular one, but i just want to pay once with cash, without it deducting from my bank account or sending bills to my house. i also would want to refill the minutes after im done. any advice?

If it's prepaid no you don't have to be 18, my 14 yr old son has already gone thru 2 of them! When you purchase the prepaid phone there are no contracts. I suggest a Virgin Mobile but Cingular can be good too. Each time you need to re-up your minutes just purchase a prepaid airtime card, enter it's pin into your phone and you're on your way. It's pretty simple. If anything step into a local cell phone store in your area and they would be able to explain it more for you.

You dont have to be 18 I dont think. I recommend Simple Freedom. You buy your prepaid minutes and thats all you pay for. I had Virgin mobile and I had a monthly plan that would deduct 1.60 a day from my account whether I used the phone or not. With Simple Freedom, its a flat .15/minute and .08/text messages. I bought a $70.00 Kyocera candid with a camera and all the bells and whistles. Best 70 bucks I ever spent. And I canpick up anywhere. My virgin phone, I had to stand out in the middle of my yard to use it. Good luck!!! p.s. Bought my phone at wal-mart and activated online and got 120 free minutes!!!
