Summary: Amazon can sell you invalid cards and there is no refund!
Comment: Be warned. I found the hard way! Purchased $25 T-Mobile Refill Card a month ago. Tried to use it today, T-Mobile rep says the card is void. A call to Amazon rep and here is the response: Prepaid cards are non-returnable, non-replaceable, non-refundable. Amazon will take your money and has no obligation to show anything for it. Consider yourself warned. I am not buying any cards from Amazon again. Full me once, shame on you....

Summary: T-Mobile To Go-Best prepaid plan out there.
Comment: I've been with T-Mobile To Go for 2 years or so now. Started carrying one when I started cycling with my daughter. The coverage in the Atlanta area is great, and I've had few problems when traveling. On the rare occasions I've had to visit a T-Mobile store, they've been most helpful, even to the point of directing me to other merchants for cheaper products!
Most amazing thing about To Go? Free "T-Zones." This service lets you browse select web sites (CNN, ABC News, ESPN) AT NO CHARGE! As a Red Sox/Patriots fan living in Georgia, it's a great way to keep up with scores, etc.
If you are a casual user like me, with the odd two minute call here and again, this is a great service. No daily fees. No roaming. Like the ad says: straight up prepaid.
My little secret for affordability? I have an Amazon Visa card that gives me $25 gift certificates as rewards. I use these to buy refill cards. End result-free air time.
If you do go w/ To Go, do yourself a favor, and load up $100 worth of minutes immediately. This puts you in the GOLD level, all your minutes are now a flat $0.10 per, and they don't expire for a year. From that point forward, it doesn't matter what denomination card you buy, the rate's the same.
I've had such good luck with T Mobile to Go, I got one for my daughter (11 years old). You can find basic To Go starter kits ultra cheap at various big box retailers. If you want a phone with more features, Amazon has them at good prices.
FAIR WARNING: If you're a heavy texter/talker, stay away. Texting used to be free (to receive), but now it's $0.10 to send, $0.05 to receive. And obviously, if you talk a lot, you'll burn through minutes like kindling.
However, If you're a disciplined occasional user, it's tough to top T Mobile To Go.

Summary: Don't do business with T-Mobile
Comment: I switched to a T-Mobile prepaid account with this phone in January. First off, the coverage is horrible. Secondly (and most significantly), I cancelled my original plan at the time I signed up. Or so I thought. After spending about 5 hours on the phone in January, March, and April, I was told that they have no record I meant to cancel original plan, ALTHOUGH MY OTHER PHONES HAVE NOT BEEN USED FOR TWO MONTHS. In other words, I was still getting charged for crappy service and coverage despite the fact the plan had been cancelled in January. Fortunately, I finally noticed my credit card was still being charged. Don't ever, ever sign up with these guys. If you do, make sure to tape record your conversations.

Summary: GOOD WAY TO PUECHASE REFILL-CARD FROM JAPAN
Comment: This is a good way to purchase the refill card from Japan. To using network-phone "SKYPE",I can re-charge a balance.
