my ex bf lives in RI and im here in Pa and im not suppose to call him. If he calls me on my cell phone will it show up on my bill? will they be able to tell if he called?

They'll be able to tell he called (they record incoming as well as outgoing calls) but I don't know if you'll get charged.

if you have sprint, its free.

but if you dont, and he calls you on ur home phone, u wont get charged. im not sure about cell.

It depends on your service. I know for sure that Tmobile shows ALL your incoming/outgoing calls. I'm not too sure about Cingular, Verizon or Sprint though.

Yeah, it depends on your service. T-Mobile will show all calls, incoming or outgoing.

i have cingular..im on the family plan thing and im not allowed to use it how i really want. I was thinking of going and buying a pre-paid cell phone. Do you have to be 18 to buy one????

do you have to be 18 to buy a pre-paid cell? Like if i go to walmart or something do you have to be 18, or can I get it myself?

well i know tmobile always has the #'s on the bills.

i thought all cell fones show the people you called and the people who have called you.. iono.

*supposed

and yes, it will show what numbers you call/calls you and how long you were on the phone for.

o well since ur w/ cingular it will only show the calls YOU make..n for incoming it juss tells how long u been on the phone, it wont show da #...well it should be like dat since they merged w/ at&t cuz thats how they did it...

^ Oooh wow I never knew that =O


If you called your ex boyfriend in RI, did he call you using a Cingular phone? If so and since you're on the family plan you probably have mobile to mobile or w/e it is, it MIGHT not show up lol.

And in any case, about the prepaid thing. You CAN just buy a regular cell that's on prepaid, then buy the cards, input the number in, and that's about it. It's not connected to your credit card, unless you want it to be. It really depends...

but do i have to be 18 to go buy a pre-paid phone?

well... i know that T-mobile shows up.. .but i use to have SPRINT long time ago.. and bak then it didnt show up.. but its probly changed now.

Depends on your service. You can go check online, there might a possible answer for you question. Oh, and I wouldn't really recommend pre-paid phones. They're much expensive than just regular cell plans. And I don't know about the age for pre-paid phones..

verizon logs all calls, which can be accessed online.

it also logs your actual location (area code wise) where you made the call, has statistics about when you call, etc.

i'm sure other providers would have something of the sort...

My friend bought the AT&T Go Phone.. I don't think you NEED to be 18, since my friend got the GO phone last year. And that phone you have to pay for anyways, which is like 75 bucks for some low-end nokia..

My boyfriend's half-brother owns a cell phone store. He said that all you do is buy a phone and then buy a card which has a certain amount on it, input the number, blah blah blah, and presto you can use it! WHY should it matter if you're younger than 18? It's your choice to buy a prepaid phone, and it's not connected to a credit card, so most likely you don't have to be 18.

i have verizon..doesn't log my calls...just sez min. of use..text..blah blah n das it...when i had at&t now dat crap logged calls n text but didnt show da # from incoming n mobile to mobile calls...

ok thanks..someone told me that you have to be 18 to buy a pre-paid because it will be put in your name or something I dunno but i was told you have to be 18

^ Not that I heard of.. since my boyfriend was going to get me prepaid a while back, but now I've got a plain. Perhaps it depends on wher eyou get the prepaid anyway.

You're not signing a contract.. so I don't think it would matter.

i was gonna go to walmart n get one there they have Virgin Mobile and it's only $50.

yeah, it will call. It shows all outgoing and incoming calls.. Sorry.... there's always letter writing, and getting to the mailbox before your parents.

yeah, i think it's supposed to show the other people's numbers.

I don't think you get charged.
And why do you have to be eighteen to buy a prepaid cellphone?

it depends on the company you have
