im thinking about getting a prepaid phone and i was just wondering how internet access works with that. is it just the same as regular minutes or what? im thinking about going with a major company. i was hoping to find something with unlimited texts and internet, or something relatively close

Currently i'm using prepaid mobile phone which also support HSDPA mobile internet broadband access. I have two kinds of option for it. One is volume based and another one is time based. I can say if my volume based mobile broadband internet can give me faster speed than the time based access. But of course it is because my volume based mobile broadband is much expensive than the time based internet. So if your mobile phone service provider also providing such option, you should make a test drive first before deciding to use which one. I don't want to spend my time waiting for sites loading, so that's why i prefer to use my volume based mobile broadband. The speed is claimed up to 3.6 Mbps while the time based is only 256 Kbps. ALthough practically it's impossible to reach that speed for both option, but however my volume based can give me speed up to 1 Mbps. I'm quite satisfy with such speed because i can load many pages just in seconds. Good luck and have a nice day. Happy mylotting.

Hey,

I don't really know how internet access works on prepaid phones, I don't have Internet access, sorry. Hopefully someone else will be able to answer your question better than I have done, in a really good way so you can actually benefit from it. Make sure you have a good day, God bless and Happy Lotting!!happy

I have a prepaid mobile phone with internet connection feature. So far it is nice and I can easily connect the web, but the rate is a little bit too high. In the Philippines, it costs P10.00 per 30 minutes and you should maintain a peso balance while using this service.

prepaid service charge is quite higher and also take into consideration the continuity of internet access. see what's your need to internet connection, if on demand basis only i think you can just stay on using the net via prepaid phone service (which is ideal if you are on the go) or through a dial-up connection if you are just at home. If you require higher speed, consider using broadband or DSL connection (but it depends on your budget also).
