Verizon use to be the number one prepaid I dont know what happened to them they use to have the best plans now there crappy.For seventy dollars you use to get 700 mins with free nights and weekends now they charge 99 cents off the top or 1.99 off the top or even 2.99 of the top thats alot of money to keep a phone on plus it cost u when you talk if verizon customers started to complain I think they would switch it back. Virgin mobile and boost mobile got good deals 60.00 dollars u get 600 mins free after 7:00 pm cant beat that verizon needs to step it up before they start losing customers im on my way out and ive been a customer for a long time.

I had a VZW phone, the 2366i. I bought it on the INPulse plan, VZW's pre-paid plan, becaust it was in my knowledge, cheap. NOT true. The daily activation fee costed me $0.99 A DAY, as well as losing minutes, just for having the phone on. I couldn't even go more than a week without having to pay for more minutes. It ended up costing me a fortune.

The most expensive pre-paid by far. I'd only recommend if: 1) Verizon is the only reliable cell provider in your area 2) You will be specifically speaking with other Verizon wireless customers…where you can take advantage of their free mobile-to-mobile.

5-19-08 I have had many verizon inpulse phones all my friends have verizon so the calling is cool but the think that is really a kick in the balls is when a txt message is sent to your phone whether u open it or not BOOM -10 cents automatically and that happened to me some girl spammed my phone over and over with those stupid forward messages and it took 30$ in 2 days away verizon needs to include unlimited verizon to verizon txt for like 10 bucks a month if they did verizon would rise even higher the service is really cool and such and the thing 10 cents a minute ya gets pricey once u like call voicemail to check ur mail ya thats a big no no im 13 and im paying 40 dollars a month atleast because of the automatic -10 cents a txt if someone sends it to your phone and it dosent make it automatically minus 10 cents like i called my friend once and day before i added 15 my balance was like 7 dollars u know and im like wtf and looked online the culprit forward txt messages so verizon u need to include unlimited verizon to verizon txt or else ull lose customers

I've used Verizon for over 10 years, recently change to the Core plan to be able to send/recieve ringtones and pics. I think the price for the prepay plan is great but would be slightly better if the minutes lasted a little longer as I don't talk much and 90 days or more would be better but as long as you get more minutes before your time is up you don't lose any minutes. I also have to consider that everyone else I know has Verizon so if I even tried to change to another company it would cost all of them a lot more money to talk to me and I think $15 a month for prepay compared to +$30 a month for a contract plan (once taxes,etc are added on) is just not worth it for me.5/19/08 TN.

I have found that Verizon is a mixed bag of pros and cons. Unlike most other services, they don't offer ultra cheap poor performing phones, which in the end is a plus. Coverage is what Verizon is known for, another plus. I also like the announcement of how much time I have for the call when I dial out.

you people like verizon because probably never went with other prepaid. try t-mobile and you will see the differents in your pocket. verizon rates are way out of control. paying a $1 a day if using the phone plus your minutes its crayzy. and expiring after months base on your prepaid no Goldmember like tmobile. after seeing their plans all i can say they are a ripoff. even if the tmobile wont have the service like verizon(i never had problem with tmobile, but some peoples complain)tmobile will be a much BETTER choice

Posted 5/3/08: Verizon's prepay plans are just too expensive so I switched to T-Mobile's Pay By the Day prepay plan. Customers on T-Mobile's Pay By the Day prepay plan get free m2m, free nights that start at 7PM and end at 6:59AM and all their over calls are just 10 cents a minute. T-Mobile charges a $1 a day to use this plan but only on days that the phone is used. I'm so happy that T-Mobile introduced this plan. I was paying an almost $90 a month fee($2.99 a day) just to use Verizon's Power Plus Inpulse plan. Never again!!!

I recently got a Verizon prepaid cell phone at one of the corporate stores. I got the 1.99 daily access fee plan and I am pretty happy with it because I only pay the 1.99 on the days i use it. The only thing I did not like was the $25 dollar activation fee they charge you at the corporate store. People don't get charge this fee when they activate through walt-mart or target. It would be nice if they had some text packages too. What other things do you guys think they should include to make service better??????

We purchased the verizon prepaid for our daughter and it is the best! You don't pay the daily fee if you don't answer or call off of your phone. All she very does is text message and since we have the INPulse Power plan we only pay 2 cents for each text message and we have NEVER paid a daily fee. It can be costly with V cast and I think the downloadable ringers are little costly, but other than that it isn't bad at all. Evern if you pay the $2.99 fee for a day you get minutes for $.02 and unlimited verizon to verizon. Now days thats pretty good considering almost everybody knows someone with a verizon phone. Not to crazy about the razor phone kinda think it's junk, but the plans are good.

Well, I originally started with the $70 prepay plan that Verizon had. I had 700 minutes, unlimited night and weekend minutes, free mobile to mobile calling, and things like that. I got the plan in 2006. In November of 2007, the plan basically became obsolete. My number had been given away, and basically, there was no way I could even get the plan I had back. I went along with the INpulse b.s. It has been really expensive and a total disappointment. I purchased a card on November 24th, and the same night someone had stolen my pin number. Get this: the card had never been taken from me. It was still in my purse inside the receipt. I called Verizon, and they told me that it was someone who lived in Wisconsin that stole the number. I live in Louisiana, which is 900 and something odd miles away. They couldn't explain it for the life of me. Then, they would not give me credit. Even though, I had the receipt from Walgreens, and I had proof on my credit card statement from when I bought it. I talked to the manager or something, and he said that he would give my claim to the corporate office for further investigation. To this day, I have yet to be called. Another complaint I have is roaming. I can be sitting in my bedroom, and the little roaming triangle flashes. The cost for roaming charges is .69 per minute. That gets quite expensive. Even if the person doesn't pick up, you still pay that much. Every 30 seconds counts as a whole minute. They can improve the plans by putting the $50 and $70 plans back in. It was a lot better. As previously stated, I had no problems. $70 wasn't bad for all that I was getting. Shortly after I got my phone which was in May of 2006, they changed the $50/$70 plans to 3000 night and weekend minutes. Honestly, I would not suggest going with Verizon Wireless INpulse unless they change the plans back to the way they used to be. If you don't you will be shelling out ridiculous amounts of cash on those prepay cards and other miscellaneous experiences. Another flaw is that you cannot use PDAs on the INpulse plans. I currently own a Treo and a Moto Q, but I cannot use either of the 2 for INpulse. They are just sitting in a box because they cannot use the PDA ESNs. The Verizon contract plans are the best. The prepaid plans suck horribly. I forgot to mention how if you don't add money by the expiration date, your account will be suspended and your number will be thrown back into the pool of “new” numbers. That basically means that if you don't add money by “x” date, your number will be taken away from you. Honestly, there are no pros. The .99 cent a day charge is outrageous. Half of the time my phone isn't on, but I'm still being charged. Point blank: DO NOT GET PREPAID SERVICE FROM VERIZON WIRELESS. It will be the worst mistake you will ever make. I'm sorry that I didn't find out sooner.

I really enjoy my phone and my service. The dollar a day is not bad if you know how to manage your minutes. You can't get a basic calling plan for $30.00. If you find one, it will be more after the fees and taxes that are added on.

VERIZON LET A TEXT MESAGE CO. TAKE MONEY OFF MY ACOUNT WITH OUT ME KNOWING OR MY CODES.you can not get Voice mail with out my code but some can take money from my acount. I stopped at verizon store IN ASHLAND OHIO but after it was understood my phone was a perpay I was told we do not do prepay acounts. I was made to feel that becuse I did not have the credit for a plan they could not help me. it was as if my monye has been going to a nother verizon not the same as there verizion in ashland ohio.I MUST ADD THAT ONE VERIZON PERSON DID HELP ME, SHE GAVE ME 5.00 CREDIT TO KEEP MY PHONE ON UNTELL MY NEXT PAYDAY. AS OF THIS I STILL HAVE NOT RECOVERED THE MONEY TOOK FROM MY ACOUNT. SO I AM SAVEING UP FOR DEPOSIT FOR A NONE PRE PAY PHONE WITH A NOTHER SERVICE.PS THIS IS HOW THEY A THERED PARTY GOT THE MONEY OFF MY PHONE THEY SENT ME A PREMEION TEXT AND TO MAKE IT STOP I HAD TO SEND THEM A TEXT TO SAY STOP OR THEY WOOD TAKE $10.95 A MONTH FROM MY PHONE.

Verizon is the only thing that has service where I live, and the service is better than anywhere around here, but the .99 a day is crazy! Plus, you can't txt at all unless you want to add money everyday! They should make a prepaid plan where you pay maybe 10 or 15 dollars a month for unlimited texting, and don't charge you on days you don't use your phone. If they did that, it would be great, but the way it is right now is way too expensive!

my friend works at verizon and he said you get charged the .99 ONLY if you use the phone. you can make as many calls as you want on that particular day for .99. if you don't use the phone then you do not get charge. it says it right above under data plans.

This service is really a rip off! I would not recommend this to anyone. THe customer service sucks as you only get stock with a computer and never a live person.

Since two days before Christmas I have been trying and still have not been able to contact a live person to complete the phone number porting to TMobile (this time a regular contract).”

I had the Verizon Inpulse Plan that deducted 99 cents from your account each day, including days when you don't use the phone. I was thinking of switching to T-Mobile ToGo b'cuz the 99 cent a day charge on the Verizon Inpulse Plan was leaving me broke. Thank God that I've found this site before I switched to T-Mobile ToGo. Verizon now offers FOUR Inpulse PrePay plans!!! There's the Inpulse plan we're all used to (the plan that deducts 99 cents a day for your account even on days when you don't use the phone), there's the Inpulse Core Plan (all calls are 10 cent all day long and there's a 99 cent fee-this fee is deducted from your account ONLY on days you use the phone, the same as AT&T's Go Phone Prepaid plan), there's the Inpulse Plus plan (a $1.99 fee is deducted from your account ONLY on days you use the phone. This plan also includes 5 cent texting, m2m, night minutes and all other call are 5 cents a minute), and the Inpulse Power Plan (this plan includes night minutes, m2m, 2 cent texting and all other calls are 2 cents a minute. There's a $2.99 access fee deducted from your account but ONLY on days when you use the phone). I've just signed up for the Inpulse Plus Plan this morning and I'm happy I did. You won't find this information on Verizon's website. You'll have to call customer service for details. Drop the old Inpulse Plan and switch to 1 of Verizon's new Inpulse plans. You'll be happy you did and you'll save money.

Great Coverage, Never dropped a call. I've been on both sides of the playing field (inpulse and easypay). Easypay is so much better, and cheaper. Verizon just came out with Power Inpulse for 2.99 a day, only on days you use it, 2 cent calls to everyone with the ever popular m2m and nights after 9. You have 2 talk 2 someone @ verizon 2 get this plan!!

The eay pay monthly is good u have 2 put money on ur phone once a month or u lose ur monthly minutes. Verizon has just came out with 3 new impulse plans, it is not advertized as of yet on the web site. call and ask about them. i know the Core impulse is .99c on the days u use the phone, but u don't get unlimited at 9pm.

I'm a #1 fan of verizon wireless. i read the reviews in here and most are hung up on the (INpulse) pay as you go's $0.99 a day service charge. If you are not happy with the $0.99 charge a day on the INpulse plan then switch to verizon wireless pay as you go plan called (EASY PAY). There is no daily chage for the plan and its much more simple and just as reliable service as the INpulse or contract plans just less expensive. I kicked my brother off my plan becouse he ran my contract cell through verizon over $550 dollars in one month. So i set him up with the EASY PAY plan for $70 a month for 700 min with unlimmited in calling and all the reg jazz. He used his old verizon phone from my contract plan for the easy pay. $78.00 was all the cost was to get him going. They also offer a $50.00 a mo. plan for 350 min. I't was painless and simple and verizon is the most reliable. I agree I WOULD NEVER PAY $0.99 monthly charge for the INpulse plan. GO WITH THE EASY PAY much cheaper and just as reliable.

Ok I like to text! && it charges me like 10 cents per message recieved and sent! They should have unlimited text like cricket and pay $5.00 a month! That would be better. I like the unlimited calling after 9 but still texting is a better option because people tend to text people more often!

I love verizon. I had a plan with my family and i loved it!!!! But they took my phone so i was thinking of getting a pre-paid one. I'm a text-aholic tho and in prepaid u get ripped off because of that. If only verizon got a plan for texts, then i'd love them. For now, i'll check on alltel or t-mobile. 🙁

If you are the world`s biggest sucker than you will buy a verizon prepaid. first of all, the selection of phones is very limited,and the features on those phones hardly have anything desirable for the price (except for the razr) and why do most of their phones have the same clamshell design? on top of that, they charge $.99 per day EVEN IF YOU DO NOT USE IT!!! so that means if you buy a $15.00 top up card, you will run out of minutes in fifteen days, and thats assuming you dont talk on it AT ALL during those fifteen days. AT&T go phone (previously cingular) doesn`t charge you $1.00 a day if you do not use it, so basically, dont buy verizon prepaid or tracfone, unless you want to get ripped off.

I like verizon but they are expensive it would be ok if they had a text pagkege like tmobile is 1cent per text or 1000 text for 10.00 month but verizon knows teens are going to come to them because you can choose any phone in store for prepaid and other plans you cant

I have the old pre-paid plan where you just add $15.00 per month and no roaming fees. However, My phone recently got damaged so now I don't know if I have to get the new prepaid plan.

verizon is a joke compared to other phone companies…. they nickel and dime your wallet and service areas suck.. and remember that you cant add 3 lines to one name unless $400 dollars falls out of your butt

I've had Verizon Prepaid for over a year now and I always have service. The only thing that i don't like about verizon is the daily fee.

I believe Verizon is the worse at prepay. They do have good service, but the amount one has to pay a month to keep up their account is rediculus. They charge $0.99/day wether or not you use the phone. A 15 dollar card will last at a maximum of 15 days. Altell only charges $0.75/day and allows you to choose your account options. You get to choose two from: free nights and weekends, free texting, free mobile to mobile, and free favorite number. If you are looking for a plan that is cheaper on the money, and yet good on the overall plan, Altell is the way to go. Before I would pay over $45 dollars for one month of Verizon. $45 on Altell gives you TWO months! Now, which one sounds better?

I hate the fact that they charge .99 cents per day! I don't even use it sometimes, and I am still .99 cents shorter every day. I hate the fact that by 15 your phone is out of minutes. Which means you are spending about $30-$45 every month. If I were to spend that much I'd be better of with a contrat.

I think they get you with the daily fee, they are making more money off you to further develop the monthly plans. What marketing strategy. They take the daily rip-off fee from prepaid and put it into regular monthly plans.What suckers we are???????

I did get one for my teenage son, but realized he wasn't using it every day and it wasn't worth it. A lot of Boys just don't talk alot on cell phones.. just quick calls to friends. I got out of it quickly….Cellular one had a better deal…no daily charge and we could choose any phone in the store (mind we paid for it) but it was so much cheaper than have a cell contract and we come out ahead!! Do the math if your teenager can use the regular phone at home..and use the phone texting and calling at school and out once in awhile. It was cheaper for us to let him use the home phone and just have prepaid for running around!!

Verizon 99cents/day, even when not using the phone, plus minutes is the greediest prepaid plan. And they charge you big bucks for roaming” in areas not charged their other plans. Switched to T-Mobile $100 prepaid plan.”

I just got it today, and I love it! The pricing isnt that bad. For 100 min, unlimited nights and weekends and unlimited in-calling, its 40 dollars a month. I mean, you could probably get 5 times the min with a real plan, but not all of us could get a real plan. Im 18, and have zero credit. Sprint wanted a 500 dollar deposit. So, this is not a bad alternative. Plus you have access to Verizons large online services. I have the razr, and I really do like it. I would reccommend this prepaid company. I would only steer elderly peple away, the people who will use it once a month, not take advantage of the services. Its a good alterntive to a contract. But all you have to give them is your zip code!!!!

I love verizon wireless from the bottom of my heart. They are the greatest network in the world. If they just stop dropping my calls then we won't have a problem. The service does make me mad sometimes but u can't go wrong with verizon. They are great. I have a plan with them but when my plan is over, I'm going to prepaid. Love the phones, just tired of paying that bill every month.

I have the old Verizon prepaid plan (circa 2003). I like that I can refill via the web at the $15.00 minimum. The per call and per text messaging can be a bit pricey though. I recommend looking on eBay or craigslist for an old Verizon prepaid phone (pre-InPulse plan)
