I am planning to buy this phone 3 weeks from now. And I wanted to know if I can buy one of those Virgin mobile cards to use to activate the phone? And is there a activation fee and if there is one, how much is it? Thanks!

You can use a card, it only needs to be the amount of your bill. There is no activation fee.

I agree with euphan. The phone is currently on sale for $240 through the Virgin Mobile website or $229 at Radioshack either at the store or on their website. If you plan on getting the phone now would be the time if possible.

Try to beg or borrow the money, after this back to school promotion you're probably going to have to wait until Black Friday. I mean for $ 60 to $ 70 off I would definitely go for it now if at all possible.

I am very poor, I am the only one in my house hold, who has a job. I have been supporting my family. So there is "no" borrowing money.

Yeah I hear you, this economy really sucks. I would try holding off until Black Friday then. With the money that you save you could pay for your first 2 months service. Good luck dude, I think that you'll enjoy it. While the phone has a couple of issues that are readily fixed, this is by far the best phone on Virgin. I paid almost as much for the Intercept and then the Triumph and this phone has been a much more pleasurable experience.
 
That would be great! But with my luck I doubt it lol I am glad you can use those cards. And I can't wait to get rid of Huawei Ascend.
