    I always said that i'd never get a cell phone, well now i'm starting to realize why people even get them. So i went ahead and got one today. But i have some questions about my plan (i know that i should've consulted the alltel guy about this while i was there, but i feel less stupid asking about it online :p )

    I believe that i got the MyCircle1 National Freedom 500 plan that comes with these features:
    Does anyone know if i can add a Canadian number to my circle and still have it free?

    also a friend of mine has alltel, but their credit sucked. They had to get a prepaid plan, and it cost them minutes everytime they check their voice mail. Since i get Basic Voicemail Free in my plan, would it cost me minutes to listen to them? Even if they are on the same network?

    thanks

    I know this probably as helpful as you would like it to be, but if you are this unfamiliar with cellphone plans... I would really suggest you either go in and talk to someone, or call their 1.800 number.

    I use Rogers Wireless (Unfortunately), and I know for me... It costs minutes to check your voicemail. You "Voicemail Free", is just the ACTUAL voice mail OPTION. As for longdistance, usually your "circle" is only local.
