<p>I’m an international, so I have no idea about phone plans and stuff. I’m coming as a freshman this fall. I need something really cheap. Any suggestions?</p>
<p>Pay-as-you-go is available for those with infrequent cellphone use. </p>
<p>Basically, there is no contract and you pay for as many or few minutes you need. Minutes don’t expire until 3 months.</p>
<p>So I pay every month for the minutes I use per month, or I get a number of minutes that I pay for and use over three months? And what company offers what you suggested?</p>
<p>You get minutes that you pay for up front and use until you run out or they expire. Generally speaking, most major carriers offer some kind of prepaid plan.</p>
