How much will 500 minutes a month cost me?
Since most cell phone customers use about 450 minutes per month, we chose 500 minutes per month as an amount that an average cell phone user might require. Many cell phone companies offer plans around the 500 minute level, but there is still quite a bit of variation among plans. For example Kajeet offers a 300 minute card and the next highest amount of minutes they offer is an unlimited card.
