Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Just got this phone for when my mom-in-law is visiting from Taiwan.
Looks like a good basic phone. Voice quality during test calls in our house was decent.
My main issue is with the included $15 Airtime Credit. There was no Pay As You Go card included, after activation I could not make any calls, and AT&T's web site claimed "Need Initial Refill," so I "refilled" my phone account via credit card with $15. About *two hours* after activation, I received an SMS that the original $15 Airtime Credit was added to my account. Had I known, I would not have "refilled" my account.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What services will trigger the daily charge on the $2 Unlimited Daily Talk & Text plan? A: Services that trigger the charge are: a voice call (including calls to voice mailbox), using IM, sending a text, picture/video/sound message. The use of data (Pay Per Use or Package), does not trigger the daily charge.
Q: May I add a data feature package to the 30-day $60 Unlimited Talk & Text or $75 Unlimited Talk & Text Plus 200MB Data rate plans? A: No. The only options for these two plans is the Pay-Per-Use data rate of $.01/KB included in the plans. Once a customer on the $75 Unlimited Talk & Text Plus 200MB Data Plan exhausts their 200MB, they will revert to the Pay-Per-Use data rate of $.01/KB included in the plans.
Q: What if I don't use all of my data on the $75 Unlimited Talk & Text Plus 200 MB rate plan within 30 days? A: You begin each 30 day period with a new allocation of 200 MB to use; there is no 'rollover' of unused data.
