Is it possible?
How about one that doesn't require a huge deposit because of bad credit?
Any ideas?

You can get prepaid cell phones now ? Ever thought of those ? I don't know how it works and I'm not if they ask for a deposit ?

You are allowed to have one. If you don't already have one, it may be difficult to get one without a hugh deposit. I would call around the different providers and explain your circumstances and ask if they charge a deposit.Originally posted by cso5@ View Post
If they want too much to open one, then I would look at the pre-paid plans others have talked about.Chapter 13 Filed 4/03/06 :blink: 341 Meeting Complete 5/11/06 :yes2:

If you have it available in your area, get a cricket phone. They are no contract, prepaid - $50 a month gets unlimited everything. The only thing is that their phones aren't any cheaper than $100, (at least on their website.)I'm not a lawyer or legal expert, just offering advice on what I may have gone through and/or have knowledge of. Good luck!

We acquired new service while in our Chap 13. I was expecting them to say no but Cingular took us with no down payment.

Dunno if this applies to your situation, but here goes: First, I'm not a big cell phone person. I don't live on it, I don't text on it, and it doesn't play a big part in my life. I have a prepaid Verizon cell phone, no camera, no internet, no fancy things. I put $15 per month on it, and it suits me. I've never understood people who live on cell phones, but that's just me. Email me and you'll get a MUCH faster response.
Do you NEED to have a normal, $50/month cell phone account? Really? Do you NEED to speak to your wife, kids, friends, etc twelve freakin' times a day?
Seriously, folks... Get over it. It's a tool, NOT a necessity.09/13/06: -- C13 filed with Courts
