Im sick of the broken front screen on my Nextel phone and want to replace the phone.

I need an older phone because I have an old plan (cheap plan- $32.99 for 800 minutes) and the new hybrid phones wont work with it and the new plans are $39.99 for 400 minutes.

All I want is a flip phone with caller id on the front. Doesnt have to be a camera phone. Also doesnt need to be in perfect shape, just functional with no broken/scratched screens.

Not looking to spend alot of money on a phone.

Thats the most basic nextel phone. And it used to be super popular. you can probably find one for free.

Ive had 2 730’s, 2 850’s (or was it 860?) and my current phone is a 560.

Nextel sucks but nobody else has a plan that comes close to mine. Everybody else wants more money for half the minutes.

My plan at the time was awseom

Was about 40 bucks for 800 mintues, free long distance, unlimited incomming calls from any number etc…

Nextel tried to charge us like 30 bucks a month more when they started the merge with sprint, we told them to fuck themselves weve had this plan since we got nextel and were going to cancel if they dont give us our original plan… they gave us back the original plan we had and a year later we cancelled with all the issues they were having…

Honestly one of the best plans i think ive ever seen any cell phone company provide… you cant find a plan close to that anymore even with nextel currently… I dont think they offer unlimited incomming calls anymore

I pay $32.99 for 800 minutes but I dont think Ive got free incoming calls.  
I havent actually had a contracted plan in over two years but I just keep getting a bill and service every month for the same price. I never had any issues with them trying to raise my rates.  
Right now their cheapest plan is $39.99 for 450 minutes.

I bought a newer phone a while back and it was a hybrid and I couldnt use it with my plan, so thats why I need an older one.

I see your wife all the time when I pay my bill.  
I checked out the new plans a few months ago and there wasnt one comparable.  
Let me know what you find. Thanks.
