Page Plus Cellular this week launched new, low-cost prepaid rates. The Verizon Wireless MVNO has decided to undergo considerable re-branding and promotional generation this year, in an effort to raise awareness about the mature MVNO.
Page Plus Cellular for years has been popular for users who are more-informed than the average wireless user. Offering attractive airtime rollover rates, combined with very low-cost minutes, Page Plus also touts that they will activate any modern Verizon Wireless phone on their service.
This week Page Plus lowered their rates to new lows for the wireless industry. Page Plus is now offering 83 minutes of airtime for $10, making their lowest-tier start at just $.138/minute. Two midrange tiers are available, $25 for 300 minutes ($.083/minute) and $50 for 700 minutes ($.07/minute). At the high-end, an $80 airtime card offers 1400 minutes ($.057/minute)
Page Plus has re-designed their web site and offered a new trade-out promotion. They will send anyone a free LG VX4400 in exchange for a working phone from any other carrier. Also, Page Plus has plans to continue expansion. The carrier has also indicated that they plan to roll out wireless data in the future, bringing Verizon’s Mobile Web 2.0 and Get it Now services to Page Plus as well.
Not great, not happy. I lost real $$money using them. I sent this request for a refund, and was refused. I tried activating 3 different phones, 1 of them purchased from their website. After asking for a refund, the supervisor I was transfered to was condescending. I hope they lose a lot of business to tmobile (cheapest major prepaid company), and PlatinumTel (cheapest period).
Spoke with Page Plus 1/4/10:
I have spent 397min (over 6.5 hours) with customer service trying to get your phone working since 12/21 and have been unable to use it. (Note: they couldn’t figure it out, and refused to give me money back or EVEN transfer the balance of my account to a new page plus number)
Please send me information on how I can return my phone and get a refund on the phone and the services I have not received totalling $107.32 ($55.90 for a phone, $23.96 for 24 days of 1200/1200 service not received, and $27.46 remaining balance). I ordered a Motorolla E815 from your website that won’t work on your service.
I am a pageplus dealer and there is now a unlimited plan for only $39.95 it includes unlimited talk/text and 20mb data long distance caller id call waiting and voicemail are included. pageplus has come a long ways and they will continue to grow and soon will offer unlimited data. they use verizon network so they are using the largest network in the country. if you want great service for a cheap price go with pageplus. you will be more than happy with the new unlimited plan. i am also a tmobile dealer and their coverage isnt nearly as good as pageplus.
