Mr Lee Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 In case any of you do not know, you can have unlimited talk to any other Smart phone for 5 days or 30 days. To me talking sure beats texting. 5 days for P100 text talk100 send to 6400 30 days for P500 text talk500 send to 6400 Plans listed HERE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art2ro Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 (edited) I seldom ever use my cellphone to call anybody, unless it's important, it seems that's a U.S. trait, because their service plans are usually unlimited, so most people in the U.S. don't bother with texting, except for most younger kids and teenagers while in school. I just prefer texting and a P500 prepaid load may last me about 45 to 60 days as long as I don't use it to top off my Smart Bro internet plug-in device which I use once in awhile when I use my mini laptop out doors!

Dave Hounddriver Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 I am somewhat of a dinosaur in that I have an intense dislike of phones and, if I MUST use one then I prefer texting to calls about 10 times over. So much so that I don't even leave the ringer turned on on my phone and don't answer calls unless I am expecting an important one.Other than my mental disorder there are reasons. I don't hear too well on the phone so it frustrates me. Phone calls run down the battery on any cheap Philippine cell phone I have ever used, (even when people call and I don't answer it still uses the battery), and I am notorious for not plugging in my phone. It means I have just enough Batt for emergency use and then I get a phone call and phht dead battery. I also find phone calls to be intrusive, as in the caller expects me to drop what I am doing and give them my undivided attention, so I prefer text messages that I can answer at my convenience.Which brings me to my final pet peeve, the unli call plan. The wife likes to phone me on that but the plan only allows for a max call of, I think, 5 minutes so every 5 minutes we are cut off in the middle of the conversation until she phones back, usually to find my battery has died Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
