How to Assess Your Cellular Service Needs

The best way to choose the right cellular service plan is to weigh your needs against the cost of the service. But before you can do that, you must first determine how and when you will use your cell phone. Your answers to the following five questions will help you identify your phone habits and put you on the right track to choosing a plan:

Will I make calls in the evenings and on the weekends?

If you plan to use your wireless phone at night and on the weekends, your carrier may have attractive service options. Many carriers offer inexpensive packages with a generous amount of minutes or unlimited evening and weekend calls. You must first buy a standard service plan to qualify for these off-peak specials.

Will I make long-distance calls?

All wireless carriers include some kind of long-distance plan. Shop to find the one that meets your expected usage.

Will I share my phone minutes with someone else?
