Tracphones

You know those phones that claim you have no contract and no hassles. I got one recently and it is just not true. I didn't read all the fine print and it looks like it really isn't that great a deal. It seems that when you buy your minutes they actually force you to buy more with in 3 months or they just take your old minutes away and deactiviate your phone.

What is the purpose of this? If I wanted to waste my minutes I would be better off with a regular cellphone plane because it actually costs a lot less for minutes. For example: I got 400 minutes for a this Trackphone and they cost $80. $80? I can get 400 minutes on a standard plan for like $20-30. OVer 3 months that only costs me $60-90. Wow great deal Trackphone.
