what i like about SO is it's so straight forward
buy the card, activate it and start talking
but iit might not b worth it for me

Petro Canada, Rogers, Bell and Telus all offer prepaid service. SpeakOut's best feature is the long expiry dates on the refills ($25 is good for 365 days). However, these plans are only good deals if you use your phone relatively little. If you use hundreds of minutes per month, a standard post-paid plan will save you money.

There are so many variables. Like Jamesey said, if you use the phone alot, a prepaid plan might not be the one to go with. It comes down to choice of phones, the network it's on, top-up options etc.

I think that you don't need a credit card with most if not all of the prepaid companies.

I believe all the prepaid providers come with Free Voicemail.

All the prepaids have top up cards available at retailers.
