Straight talk is great! Now if you rarely use a cell phone, you might better of with a Net talk. Its the same company but your minutes last for up to 90 days. Now most people only have a cell phone and need the minutes. I have had ST for year now and have had no problems with it.
I have a question. Straight Talk never counts down my internet usage or text message usage. I get the $30 card, and at the end of the month, I still have the 30MB of data and 1000 texts, never keeps track. My question is, how are they gonna know if I run out of minutes? It's the last day of my service this month, and I am still able to make calls on it. A couple months ago, I was still able to make calls on the last day. Maybe I never have to refill?
So is it true? Did Tracfone, Straight talk make a deal with Sprint so they can run their new Samsung Galaxy, with the unlimited plan on Sprint's network? If so then happy days.
My brother has the e71. but i was wondering if i could use the nokia e7 with straight talk if it is unlocked. or a windows phone such as a htc hd7 that is unlocked? i have been told i can but what wouldi have to do in order to be able to use it?
@lasalvi509 The nokia e71 is now a straight talk phone. You dont have to "unlock" anything. These practices are largely illegal most of the time. I would advise against it.
Straight Talk Wireless is THE WORST Customer trained rep on the planet. After 4 months of their service, no one can resolve the problem on my web page log in account and my cell phone device. I am only spending my money because its cheap, therefore, you get cheap crappy service.

This video is old but relatively accurate. Many new phones added and now they carry a lot more clout as theyve provided a great service to me for close to a year now.
The selection of phones is actually pretty good. I just upgraded to a Samsung slider with web access and a pretty legit camera. I used to think that the catch with the prepaid plans was that the phones are garbage but this phone is actually an upgrade from what I had with my plan that I was paying a lot more for and was locked into a 2 yr contract with.
I was really surprised to learn that straight talk is national. I had boost mobile for a long time and liked the prepaid idea but whenever I traveled away from NY I had trouble. I switched to straight talk about a year ago now and I am really happy with it. The service is great and for $45 a month for unlimited everything I don’t think there is a better deal
I recently moved from the west coast to the east coast and was hesitant to keep the same service. I couldn't believe how great my service is here in Atlanta. It is just so incredible how I have the unlimited plan and save half the price as all the other major providers!!!
everybody talking about how straight talk is good, but can any bobdy tell me about nationwide coverage, i am a truck driver, i drive all aover in 48 states, so i'd like to have good advise, right now i have verizon, please !!!!!!! ??????????????????
@usdsyr ST is great if u want good coverage get the ST phones that are labeled CDMA they work off Verizon towers which seems to cover rural areas like where I live. It's the only network that works in BFE where I live. I do hope that ST will come out with an android phone that works of Verizon network, still looking for talks on that subject. The new Android from ST is thru Sprint network, won't work for me in my neck of the woods...Good luck!
This Straightalk video insert is useful for many people. This youngster interviewer makes a goo job of it. He isn't like some others who just ram the info down your throat. This guy comes across as sincere, and that's what straighttalk is all about
Straight Talk's network coverage is better than most people would expect. I travel a lot for work, from Boston to Florida, and I have never had a call dropped. I pay just $31 and can send 1000 text and use 1000 minutes a month, which is perfect for my job. I am always able to keep in contact with my business partners and stay in touch with friends and family.
When finding the straight talk service I was paying close to $100 for my cell phone bill now I pay only $45 a month for unlimited service which gives me extra money in my pocket. Not only do I save money I also get to enjoy great service. I have no drop calls and have service practically everywhere. I have traveled across the whole country and my straight talk service has never failed me.
i am considering getting Straight Talk and browsing phones on their web site...the Samsung R810C looks like an iPhone, anyone have it???... I am not willing to pay for verizon and at&t's service plans but am willing to spring for a great phone knowing i am only going to pay $45/month for unlimited everything....woo hoO!!!
as long as it gets good coverage , its the best deal , $45 dollars for unlimited web and everything else sounds to good to be true but Ive heard enough good reviews to try it.
I BOUGHT A SAMSUNG r451 AND ONLY HAD IT FOR ABOUT A MONTH. MY PHONE JUST LOST SERVICE WHEN I ADDED THE NEXT PHONE CARD. I CALLED CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY DIDNT HELP ME. THEY JUST TOLD ME TO TYPE IN ALL KINDS OF CODES AND WAIT 48 HRS. THEY TOLD ME THAT ALL 5 TIMES I CALLED. I TOLD THEM I WANT MY PHONE REPLACED SINCE IT WAS BRAND NEW BUT THEY JUST SAID WAIT 48 HRS AGAIN AND AGAIN. THEY SAID IF I HAVE ANY MORE QUESTION TO CALL AGAIN. THAT IS WHEN I HUNG UP THE PHONE KNOWING THIS COMPANY SUCKS!!!
this is an interesting video that it helps first time cellphone buyers to understand the phones that they buy. Most people always read the leaflets then throw them away. This is better
Eventhough the video is outdated you can see the many positive comments it has. Is all said in the video and now they have smartphones like blackberry's and similar phones that are top of the line with minimal monthly fee. I pay $45 a month unlimited and I can't ask for more. Visit Wal-mart and you will find your perfect cellphone in Straight Talk. I saved, don't you.
Straight Talk have improved their phone selection. You can now get really good phones such as the Nokia E71 which is exactly like a blackberry and at half the price. The coverage in my experience is excellent. I have yet to have a problem anywhere with reception.
if u dont mind dealing with all the B.S. and problems u will have with customer service and their phones messing up on u then straight talk is great for u
Good video! Also, I discovered that the best way to get Straight Talk customer service is to go thru Facebook., Crazy but true! They have a FB fan page and you get support thru there. Straight Talk is a great deal and this makes it better!

OMG the costumer service is terrible I bought a gift phone for a freind at christmas and still ZERO i mean ZERO service. You got striaght talk beware the customer service. It takes months to get anything done. I have persnoaly been of the phone over 6 hours on a voice mail issue. Straighttalk step up or ur BS post will be overidden by your LOUSY COSTUMER SERVICE !!!!!
@gunnguy12 trying using Straight Talk customer service through Facebook you will be able to get support through there which is amazing. I absolutely love Straight Talks diversity and flexiblity.
Wow old video. New developments in Straight Talk? They have smartphones and they now use BOTh the Verizon and ATT towers since this ad came out. Basically, straight talk has gotten even better.
I have the Samsung R355c from Straight Talk and have not encounter a problem. I read carefully the instructions of "How To" and it helped. ST also transferred my old cell number to them and they did it in half an hour. I have the $30 a month plan with 1000 min. of talk,text,free 411 calls and 30mb of data. Switch and Save today, I did.
@nett5mo have you tried resetting it??? That worked for me. IF not just call their customer service. I know its prob not in america but seriously they hvae helped me out SOOOOOO MUCH. i really have saved with them so dont give up!the prices are soooo good.
in February i am getting the Samsung R451C and unlimited plan!! i am So happy!!! i cant wate for track!! i will text all the time with my friends!! im So happy!!!!!!!
I bought a Samsung r451c for my boyfriends birthday and there is one problem. He has not stopped thanking me for introducing him to your company. He used to spend so much with the contract he had it was becoming a financial problem. Since then, he has saved literally thousands of $'s over a period of two years.
I enjoy buying phones frrom straighttalk. It was this video that introduced me to them. Since then I have bought numerous phones from them. Straightalk is a good name and they live up to their name.
This outdated advert for straighttalk does prove one thing. No other company who competes for clients have been able to beat their prices or service. I continually surf the internet for cellphone bargains and nobody has come close to their deals.
I've been with Straight Talk a year now and I've saved over $1000.00 compared to when I was on a contract! I love not having a bill at the end of the month and not having to worry about running out of airtime! I got the Samsung Finesse and it's so cool being able to access the web from my phone...I'm loving it!
Straighttalk is not such a new service anymore but that doesn't not make them the cheapest. No one has given a better deal than them. Definitely the best since they started!
It didn't long for me to realize that straight talk was one of the best deals out there. With their unlimited plan for only 45 dollars a month, no contracts, and no monthly bills?! That is a great deal, and the 30 dollar a month plan that gives me 1000 minutes, 1000 texts, and 30 mb of data.
All I have to say about Straight Talk is that I have saved over $2000.00 since I joined them and it's the best financial decision I've made in years! My credit card is now paid off which is a huge relief and my other debts will soon go the same way...all thanks to ST!
I cannot understand how people can still choose contract cell phones with all its hidden costs that are not so hidden when you get your bills. Straight Talk is exactly that........straight towards talking/texting/communicating. You get amazing connectivity due to Verizon network service, flexibility to change options monthly according to your budget, cost effective options and RELIABLE!!!
I had no idea that Straighttalk uses the verizon network. No wonder the service is so solid. I have the $45 unlimited plan for about three months now and im very happy i made the move. To me, a phone is a phone as long as the service is good so the fact that i can save $40 a month AND get great service is a no brainer.
Now that I see this map of all the Straight Talk coverage in the US it explains why I've had such great reception considering we've traveled to allot of places in the US and we haven't had any dropped calls or distorted sound. Well done Straight Talk!
@rights4animals2 The coverage is so awesome because they not only use Verizon and AT&T based on what part of the country you are in, but Straight Talk uses the main network rather than secondary networks as other prepaid companies tend to do. Here in Miami, getting go reception is often very difficult and I've had that here and throughout Florida and I'm anxious to give it a try when I go on vacation next month.
I have been on Straighttalk for over a year now. I have saved hundreds of $ and am one very happy customer. In fact I am so happy that I am purchasing a Straight Talk for my young nephew for Xmas to get him connected with his first phone. I am sure that he is really going to be chuffed and I know his parents will be pleased as well because he is alwyas phonejacking their phones.
i really liked this plan from this video because i find it far cheaper than my old contract too, with far beta coverage and every thing is simple and you can choose a cheap and simple phone instead of loosing something you cant use any way because itsso complicated for not as a much of a tech person like myself.
If anyone who knows about cellphone companies hasn't heard about straighttalk they must be living on mars. With the deals they put on the market they are a cut above any other company. Since discovering them I have saved literally thousands of $ss!
Being in control of your expenses is a great thing, especially in this tough economy. Switching to StraightTalk allows me to do that. I now pay less for my cell phone, has unlimited minute and better coverage!
Yes, Straight Talk's deal of $30 for 30 days of service and 1,000 minutes of calls, 1,000 texts and 30 MB of web access is great. But that's not enough for most of us, so why settle for that when just another $15 a month will get you unlimited calls, texts, and web access! It's just a better deal.
I'm using the Straight Talk unlimited plan in NY for about three months now and so far i haven't had any disruption or problems whatsoever. Idk if its just my area or whatever but i think the service is solid i mean when im in the elevator of my building its a little weak but thats about it. I kept my same number too, my friends never knew i moved or anything.
I have been on Straighttalk for more than a year now (the video is a bit dated) and all I can say is that what straighttalk has offered me has only been good and I am very happy with the service that I have had. Well done Straighttalk
@papinomontelli it is really great i know the video is a bit outdated. Due to the success of this video i will cover more details. Idk why the person below u is saying its a scam. Both my sister and i used to use it. (just wasnt for us), my brother uses it, and i have a few friends that use it as well. Straight talk really is great.
@papinomontelli Agreed, they need to upload some more videos on here because I think more people need to know about the fact that unlimited talk/text/411/web/everything plans don't need to cost 100 bucks a month in order to work at a high level like Straight Talk.
@papinomontelli I know hey, old video but still up there with the best deals. Paying $45 a month for UNLIMITED everything has served me so well. I feel like I have saved a lot of money thanks to these packages!
@papinomontelli Pretty cool that the network is national and im thinking about making the move to straight talk, specifically the unlimited plan for $45 but im concerned about giving up my blackberry. Does anyone have the Samsung R355c? It looks like is has all the features that my bb has but still, its not a BB! Obv no BBM but im more concerned about the keyboard.
Straight Talk is a bullshit company with shady business practices. THEY ARE A SCAM. I've had one for the last several months. My phone number changes every few days without my authorization, preventing me from receiving calls. Outgoing calls only work about half the time, and "unlimited minutes" for 30 days really amounts to about half a month before they claim you are out of minutes.
I totally believe that straightttalk has done my entire workforce a favor because 25 of our workers are now on the $45 unlimited plan, saving our company a fotune. What a pleasure--no contracts to pay!!
Everyone in our family is getting a Straight Talk phone phone for Christmas as we've done the math and it pays us to buy out of our family plan contract and we can be rid of the dreaded cell phone bill for ever!! We're going to love having unlimited talk, text and data and we'll save a bundle as well!
@annbyls i know straight talk is really great. I used to have it myself but I rarely use it myself so i switched back to a prepaid company that allows pay by the minuite. My brother uses it and my sister used to but switched because she liked the evo 4g and it was 5 bucks more a month. Overall for most people you can't beat that especially if you like doing all the things your phone can do.
Straighttalk is so much less expensive to have than a contract. I have the $30 plan which gives me 1000minutes of talk and text for 30days. I don't even use 1000 minutes so this is perfectly adequate for me and it is good for my pocket as well
I've been a Straight Customer for a while and let me tell you I love it so much. I love it so that I'm thinking that'a also the perfect gift for the holidays. My mom has a pretty bad phone she wants to get rid off and I'm thinking Straight Talk would not only be an amazing upgrade it will also save her lots of money in the long run. Merry xmas!
I've had Straight Talk now for about a year and I couldnt be more happier. I love the unlimited texts, calls and web deal. The service is also great. I dont think I'm ever getting another service!
Straighttalk has amazing reception which is clear and since I got my straighttalk unlimited for $45 I haven't dropped a call yet - they use the verizon towers so the coverage is nationwide and more
I got the straighttalk phone and it is amazing for $45 you get unlimited talk, text and data for a month. What is really great news is that this black friday Straighttalk are running a special of a Samsung T55 plus and unlimited card worth $45 and for both you will only pay $45 - really cool deal
Straighttalk is fabulous and very convenient to me. I have the $45 unlimited plan which really is an asset to my business. I am just starting out and my office is my car and cellphone. For $45 I have unlimited use of the phone in talking texting and data - This is a really good deal for me
Straight Talk unlimited at $45 a month is a really good deal. There are now much better phones available on their website. I don't know why they ask for your zip code on their website. Perhaps there are different types of phones available in different parts of the country.
great video! People I have an annoucement! you happy straight talk customers like me, get in line at walmart this black friday and make a friend or relative happy this xmas! They are having a sale on ST, a samsung for 45 with a 45 dollar air card! It's going to be awesome!
Man, now that straight talk have included smart phones in their line-up, and the added benefit of the cheapest unlimited plan in the nation, makes this service quite unbeatable.
Straight Talk is soooooo awesome. I've had it for a couple of months now. When I switched over to them, I started saving $40 a month and their phone selection now is just great!
With the recession I have had to watch every cent. This has been where straighttalk has been a life saviour. I have been taking the $30 plan which gives me 1000minutes and texts which has enabled me to keep in touch at a realistic cost. There have been no extra charges or hidden costs and I have found $30 to be manageable to my budget
Great video. Straight talk really did save me over 40 dollars a month. It really does add up throughout the year. I am extremely satisfied with the service and the unlimited everything plan for just 45 dollars a month is fantastic!
Personally the thing I love about straight talk is the awesomness of the service. I mean we all know verizon has the best coverage. So I go to school in upstate michigan.... they told us that cell phones were going to be an isssue and we HAD to get verizon. WELL!!! I decided to cut my costs in half and I got straight talk.. and what do you know.. it works perfectly!!! My roomate has basically the same phone and she pays 100 bucks a month. . JUSt those little savings add up!
Great video. I liked how he walked viewers through Straight Talk's website. And the coverage area comparison was a real eye-opener too. I have to say, I've been very pleased with the signal strength of my Straight Talk cell, especially as compared to the network I had with my Sprint phone. And the monthly price is a real bargain as well. Straight Talk is tough to beat.
Thanks to all the info I found online about Straight Talk I was able to make an informed desicion and bought a Nokia 6790, its a smart phone and I'm really pleased with the features, of course! and the service, it included a 30 card with the purchase with unlimited web, voice andn text and after that for only $45 a month I get all the phone I need. I'm really pleased with my new phone.
super video, lots of info,love it. i have recently switched to straight talk, as more and more friend were telling me about the savings i could make. so i went to walmart to check it all out, and got myself the $45 a month straight talk plan with unlimited talk, text and web access. and saving i am. thanks to verizon i no longer have any dropped calls. and the fact that i do no longer have to pay extra for long distance calls helps me keep up with my friends out of state. great deal. thank you
Thanks for the really informative video...I think the Straight Talk deal of unlimited calling, texting and data connection for $45.00 per month has to be the budget saver of the year as I've saved at least $200.00 so far compared to when I had a contract and the year isn't over yet!
This is a great video with lots of info, very helpful.
I switched to Straight Talk after doing a lot of online research. All the reviews and this kind of info videos where very important in my decision making process,.
I have a Samsung now; it's a great phone with camera and pm3 player (awesome) with a $30 dollar 30 day card that gives me 1000 minutes and 1000 text. I think this is the best value in the market, unbeatable.
Very helpful video. I have now decided that straight talk is the way for me. UNLIMITED usage is just the way that I need to go as I have a passion for having long phone calls. All this for just $45 is a gift to me. Thank you straight talk
The more calls & texts you make on your amazing $45 prepaid Straight Talk plan the better value you get for your money. Unlimited talk, text nationwide & data & 30 days service never cost so little as with Straight Talk. Not to mention the costs you save by phoning loved ones in other states at the same price as a local call, well distance no longer can keep you apart thanks to Straight Talk.
good video.lots of info. the Straigth Talk plan for $45 works for me. nationwide coverage , no dropped connections thanks to verizon.unlimited talk and web access.i travel a lot and used to have to pay a fortune for long distance calls to keep up with my familiy. now i have peace of mind.
@babuschka42 I know exactly what you're talking about, I basically work off of my Nokia 6790 and I really save on my business expenses because it's completely ulimited mobile web for 45 bucks a month.
@babuschka42 Yeah I was shocked when I learned that Straight Talk uses the Verizon network, I know it's the largest in the entire United States and I didn't think that prepaid wireless got such classy service.
Great guide around their website. I've just made the switch to Straight Talk and so far, so good. Great to see I won't be having a problem with coverage and it was so weird knowing I'm now paid up for the month and don't have to be keeping track of anything with this unlimited plan!
Informative, thanks. Straight Talk unlimited really is an ideal option for small businesses...no extra charges for long distance calls when you travel a lot and you can be relatively certain you'll have coverage. You also don't have to deal with monthly reimbursements or contract terminations when employees leave. Not to mention the obvious...its unlimited everything!
A most helpful video...I was torn between Net10 and Straight Talk but I will now go with Straight Talk as the coverage with Verizon is so good and I love the $45.00 per month unlimited usage plan!
As you say $45.00 bucks a month is just so cheap for unlimited usage in calling, texting and data use and their choice of phones is really good! The Verizon network is so good and you get a signal anywhere in the States!
Right now I am paying like $70 dollars a month for my wireless cell phone and it doesn't even have unlimited minutes. This is a great deal and I am definitely going to check it out.
good tutorial on finding info for different Straight Talk services on their website. Their Unlimited plan has got to be one of the best deals out there, good coverage and unlimited everything for $45 a month, pretty great.
if your a business person this service works really well, i was using a contract for over $100/m, that was insane, they really ripped me off, so i found straight talk at walmart, and i found it to be far less hassel, and that scores points with me because any body who can provide a service like that to their customers rocks
I have the R355C and I love it. The phone has a great battery life, MP3 player, and 1.3 mega pixel camera. I only spend $30 a month for the basic plan because I only use the phone for short calls and a few texts. What I mostly use the phone for is the MP3 player. Everyone always thinks that my phone is a blackberry lol.
READ THE FINE PRINT AND WHATEVER YOU DO, DO NOT REFILL COVERAGE UNTIL YOU HAVE USED YOUR COVERAGE COMPLETELY. THEIR SYSTEM IS DESIGNED TO SCREW THEIR CUSTOMERS. WHY ELSE ERASE ANY REMAINING COVERAGE YOU HAVE WHEN YOU ADD A NEW REFILL CARD? THIS IS A SIMPLE QUESTION THAT NO ONE AT STRAIGHT TALKS CUSTOMER SERVICE DEPARTMENT CAN ANSWER.
straight talk really has got 2 perfect prepaid cell phone packages. 1) the $45 unlimited text, talk nationwide and unlimited mobile web access & 2) the $30 one for 30 days service, 1000 talk minutes nationwide, 1000 text or picture messages and 30MB mobile web access & free calls to 411. This $30 package is very cheap & you get 33 minutes of talk / 33 texts / 10 MB of data (10 web pages) a day if divided equally over the month - this is a comfortable amount for a moderate user,no frugality.
Hey techtube central amigo,I got the Samsung R355c and I love it.This sh** works and very well.Thank you for the review.Could have done a better job,but you probably had your dick in your hand at the time.PEACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@crva6724 sorry this video was so bad. At the time I had no idea this video would take off and straight talk wasnt in business yet. I later realized that this was for a long time the only video about straight talk. So this wasn't really a review just an imformative video. Months after this video was uploaded i got straight talk myself. I just got a new video camera on saturday so I will be doing a real review soon. Sorry again this video sucked so bad
@techtubecentral Dude, don't apologize. I saw this video like MONTHS ago and eventually switched to Straight Talk myself. Have been saving big bucks off my cell expenses since then. I owe you a beer for telling us about this great service. Straight Talk is unbeaten even now, almost a year later.
ST works very well.I just wish you would have given me the information on the traffic phone.I do not understand why you would want to keep that to yourself.Pass on all the good information you find out.I do not believe you could be that selfish.
Where can I get this "traffic" phone?Are they cheaper than ST?I did a search on the "traffic" phone and I could not find any information.Are you messing with me?Are you funning me boy?
@Thegamereveiwer1 u have two options the first is to go to the store every month and buy a card. The second option is to go online and turn on auto refill. All you do is type in your credit card number and it automatically charges $30 to your credit card every 30 days or when you run out of time
@Thegamereveiwer1 HI! No no bills and you buy your card when you need to. It's awesome! I got a Samsung slider, super cool with lots of minutes and text! I love my cell phone! you should try ;)
Are there any extra sur charges or taxes if you purchase the $45 dollar unlimited calling card with Straight Talk, or is it just the tax on the calling card? Are there any hidden charges like with other cell companies for calling 411 information service. How does Straight talk charge you for calling information if your contract expires at the end of the month? Can anybody give me advice on the Straight talk service. My contract is up with verizon, so I'm thinkin about getting this.
@techtubecentral i wanna get their new touch phone but its wayy to overpriced. but yea the service sounds great . will be buying a phone very soon : dont know which one though
I like Straight Talk but when I signed up for auto-refill it took my debit card info but then didn't give me a choice of plans... so now I'm not sure if I'm actually signed up or not (nor do I know what plan they gave me), then when I called their 800 number I keep getting a recording that says "we are busy call back later". They also don't have any email or webform to contact them, just a snale mail address.
I hate this phone company. they are hard to get a hold of in case of an emergency. and i had a straight talk phone but they lost my mobile number. so i am now phone less. yes!! its cheap but it's hard to get a hold of them. so it's basically up to you if you want to buy it.
BUYER BEWARE!!! I ordered 2 phones, 2 unlimited cards AND overnight shipping on 02/03/2010. It is now 02/10/2010 SEVEN days later and I don't have my phones, don't have my shipping info. The customer service is a JOKE, and completely un-helpful! SEVEN DAYS LATER and I have NOTHING but a reciept for where they TOOK ME for $800.33!!!!!!
After all this time this is still the best service! Some of the other prepaid companies have lowered their prices but their coverage sux! Straight Talk is the ONLY one who provides excellent coverage.
BTW in the vid you say available online only but they are, like all over Walmart now...
I got myself a Straight Talk phone. I couldn't believe that not only is the Unlimited package so affordable at $45 monthly but it is prepaid with no contracts. This video is great.. can you believe a prepaid phone has better coverage than the big companies. Straight Talk just got a few new phones.. I got the Samsung Finesse. Great phone and a fantastic deal with brilliant service. I like!
Thats great that straight talk is working for you. I still cant get over their service and rates either. Even Though the Fineese is $300 is it worth it or did you buy it somewhere else. Thanks for watching and if you like what you see please rate, and subscribe
ay bro... i have lg 220c with straght talk... but i can't seem to erase voicemail messages... customer service could not tell what to do, all they did was deactivate the voice mail and and reactivate to completely erase everything... can u help?
hi.. what you could actually do is to listen to your voicemail and after that you will be given an option to delete it or to save it. hope this helped..
@geoleesachina ... yea... i friend of mine helped me out wit that... she just said all i had to do was go on a landline, listen to my voicemail, and press 7 directly after the message finished... why couldn't the operator just tell me that, or have it written in the manual?
@whitekid3 sorry I did not know thats what you ment. Odds are you will have trouble sooner or later with that no matter what network your on. ALL networks delete messages by pushing 7 when the message is being played
Straight talk is great! Now if you rarely use a cell phone, you might better of with a Net talk. Its the same company but your minutes last for up to 90 days. Now most people only have a cell phone and need the minutes. I have had ST for year now and have had no problems with it.

I have a question. Straight Talk never counts down my internet usage or text message usage. I get the $30 card, and at the end of the month, I still have the 30MB of data and 1000 texts, never keeps track. My question is, how are they gonna know if I run out of minutes? It's the last day of my service this month, and I am still able to make calls on it. A couple months ago, I was still able to make calls on the last day. Maybe I never have to refill?

So is it true? Did Tracfone, Straight talk make a deal with Sprint so they can run their new Samsung Galaxy, with the unlimited plan on Sprint's network? If so then happy days.

My brother has the e71. but i was wondering if i could use the nokia e7 with straight talk if it is unlocked. or a windows phone such as a htc hd7 that is unlocked? i have been told i can but what wouldi have to do in order to be able to use it?
lasalvi509 8 months ago
@lasalvi509 The nokia e71 is now a straight talk phone. You dont have to "unlock" anything. These practices are largely illegal most of the time. I would advise against it.

Straight Talk Wireless is THE WORST Customer trained rep on the planet. After 4 months of their service, no one can resolve the problem on my web page log in account and my cell phone device. I am only spending my money because its cheap, therefore, you get cheap crappy service.

The selection of phones is actually pretty good. I just upgraded to a Samsung slider with web access and a pretty legit camera. I used to think that the catch with the prepaid plans was that the phones are garbage but this phone is actually an upgrade from what I had with my plan that I was paying a lot more for and was locked into a 2 yr contract with.

I was really surprised to learn that straight talk is national. I had boost mobile for a long time and liked the prepaid idea but whenever I traveled away from NY I had trouble. I switched to straight talk about a year ago now and I am really happy with it. The service is great and for $45 a month for unlimited everything I don’t think there is a better deal

@usdsyr ST is great if u want good coverage get the ST phones that are labeled CDMA they work off Verizon towers which seems to cover rural areas like where I live. It's the only network that works in BFE where I live. I do hope that ST will come out with an android phone that works of Verizon network, still looking for talks on that subject. The new Android from ST is thru Sprint network, won't work for me in my neck of the woods...Good luck!

Straight Talk's network coverage is better than most people would expect. I travel a lot for work, from Boston to Florida, and I have never had a call dropped. I pay just $31 and can send 1000 text and use 1000 minutes a month, which is perfect for my job. I am always able to keep in contact with my business partners and stay in touch with friends and family.

When finding the straight talk service I was paying close to $100 for my cell phone bill now I pay only $45 a month for unlimited service which gives me extra money in my pocket. Not only do I save money I also get to enjoy great service. I have no drop calls and have service practically everywhere. I have traveled across the whole country and my straight talk service has never failed me.

@rights4animals2 The coverage is so awesome because they not only use Verizon and AT&T based on what part of the country you are in, but Straight Talk uses the main network rather than secondary networks as other prepaid companies tend to do. Here in Miami, getting go reception is often very difficult and I've had that here and throughout Florida and I'm anxious to give it a try when I go on vacation next month.

Yes, Straight Talk's deal of $30 for 30 days of service and 1,000 minutes of calls, 1,000 texts and 30 MB of web access is great. But that's not enough for most of us, so why settle for that when just another $15 a month will get you unlimited calls, texts, and web access! It's just a better deal.

Straight Talk is a bullshit company with shady business practices. THEY ARE A SCAM. I've had one for the last several months. My phone number changes every few days without my authorization, preventing me from receiving calls. Outgoing calls only work about half the time, and "unlimited minutes" for 30 days really amounts to about half a month before they claim you are out of minutes.

The more calls & texts you make on your amazing $45 prepaid Straight Talk plan the better value you get for your money.

straight talk really has got 2 perfect prepaid cell phone packages. 1) the $45 unlimited text, talk nationwide and unlimited mobile web access & 2) the $30 one for 30 days service, 1000 talk minutes nationwide, 1000 text or picture messages and 30MB mobile web access & free calls to 411. This $30 package is very cheap & you get 33 minutes of talk / 33 texts / 10 MB of data (10 web pages) a day if divided equally over the month - this is a comfortable amount for a moderate user,no frugality.

@Thegamereveiwer1 u have two options the first is to go to the store every month and buy a card. The second option is to go online and turn on auto refill. All you do is type in your credit card number and it automatically charges $30 to your credit card every 30 days or when you run out of time

Are there any extra sur charges or taxes if you purchase the $45 dollar unlimited calling card with Straight Talk, or is it just the tax on the calling card? Are there any hidden charges like with other cell companies for calling 411 information service. How does Straight talk charge you for calling information if your contract expires at the end of the month? Can anybody give me advice on the Straight talk service. My contract is up with verizon, so I'm thinkin about getting this.

Do these phones work with a SIM card? I have an unlocked smartphone I bought and I use it with AT&T, but I'd like to switch to straight talk.

I like Straight Talk but when I signed up for auto-refill it took my debit card info but then didn't give me a choice of plans... so now I'm not sure if I'm actually signed up or not (nor do I know what plan they gave me), then when I called their 800 number I keep getting a recording that says "we are busy call back later". They also don't have any email or webform to contact them, just a snale mail address.

I hate this phone company. they are hard to get a hold of in case of an emergency. and i had a straight talk phone but they lost my mobile number. so i am now phone less. yes!! its cheap but it's hard to get a hold of them. so it's basically up to you if you want to buy it.

After all this time this is still the best service! Some of the other prepaid companies have lowered their prices but their coverage sux! Straight Talk is the ONLY one who provides excellent coverage.
BTW in the vid you say available online only but they are, like all over Walmart now...

I got myself a Straight Talk phone. I couldn't believe that not only is the Unlimited package so affordable at $45 monthly but it is prepaid with no contracts. This video is great.. can you believe a prepaid phone has better coverage than the big companies. Straight Talk just got a few new phones.. I got the Samsung Finesse. Great phone and a fantastic deal with brilliant service. I like!
winnersluck1 2 years ago
Thats great that straight talk is working for you. I still cant get over their service and rates either. Even Though the Fineese is $300 is it worth it or did you buy it somewhere else. Thanks for watching and if you like what you see please rate, and subscribe

ay bro... i have lg 220c with straght talk... but i can't seem to erase voicemail messages... customer service could not tell what to do, all they did was deactivate the voice mail and and reactivate to completely erase everything... can u help?

hi.. what you could actually do is to listen to your voicemail and after that you will be given an option to delete it or to save it. hope this helped..
geoleesachina 2 years ago
@geoleesachina ... yea... i friend of mine helped me out wit that... she just said all i had to do was go on a landline, listen to my voicemail, and press 7 directly after the message finished... why couldn't the operator just tell me that, or have it written in the manual?
whitekid3 2 years ago
@whitekid3 sorry I did not know thats what you ment. Odds are you will have trouble sooner or later with that no matter what network your on. ALL networks delete messages by pushing 7 when the message is being played
