Calling Rates

STi prepaid cell phones plans are broken down into three types:

• STi Plan 1: Pay 10 cents per day for network access, and then each minute is just 10 cents, regardless of time of day. These minutes never expire and are available for nationwide calling at no additional cost. Pay as you go, only buy the minutes you need.
• STi Plan 2: This cell phone calling plan is very similar to the first one, except you pay 25 cents for each day of network access. In exchange, the rate drops to 7.9 cents per minute, so this option will likely be better for people who talk on their cell phones a little more. If you use more than eight minutes per day on average, Plan 2 will save you money in the long run.
• STi Plan 3: For the heaviest talkers, this STi prepaid cell phones plan offers unlimited nights and weekends and 1000 anytime minutes. Instead of paying on a per minute basis, you pay $49.99 per month. Any additional minutes are 10 cents each.

All three STi prepaid cell phones plans come with "great international rates", but you'll have to check with your local retailer for any further details.
