Thanks OP!

It is not a bad idea to pick up one of these cheap refurb go-phones. They make a great backup if you are already an AT&T customer. Just pop in your sim card and you have a great back up.

reps to you!

Thanks for the reps. I got my wife a cheap go phone from AT&T when her RAZR crapped out. You're right. You just pop in your AT&T sim and start it up. Just make sure not to activate it as a go phone first. Throw out the sim it comes with, unless you want to really use it as a go phone, of course.

Holy Cow! I was just reminded in another thread (thanks yvsaisunder) that AT&T has 35% BCB!!!

Just for the info bing cashback might not work
