Verizon today announced two monthly pre-paid plans. Like plans already offered by Cingular and Virgin Mobile, Verizon's plans offer a set number of minutes per month plus additional benefits. Verizon offers free night and weekend and in-network calling on both plans. They will cost $50 for 350 minutes per month and $70 for 700 minutes per month. Text messages cost an additional 10 cents each to send or receive.

😁 Yup. The bastards knew they're crappy pre-paid plans weren't doing good especially when Cingular was offering GoPhone. IMO the best pre-paid service. Almost like post-paid really but slightly higher. Much better than Virgin or Verizon's or T-Mobile rip-off pre paid plans. Come on, unlimited nights and weekends - a no-brainer!
Why do they come out with this so late !! After struggleing to get Verizon they come out with pre-paid !! If they had it around like a year ago it would've been a lot easyier for me to get a phone with them !! BUT oh well i already have my own plan an...
