VoIP has been named by a financial advice resource as one of the top ways to slash smart phone costs.

Another tip to cut mobile device charges is to go for a pre-paid agreement, the article continued, due to the competitiveness of this market at present.

Nokia 6030 To-Go with postpaid account
I love T-Mobile but I am a little confused about what to do next. I had a T-Mobile To-Go account for about a year before deciding to get a post paid contract. I finally chose T-Mobile over at&t and VZW. My pre-paid phone was the Nokia 6030. At work I was given as a gift the Dash. I used the Dash for the remainder of my pre-paid minutes, but I kept the 6030 as a backup / spare phone. When I signed up for a year postpaid contract, I kept my pre-paid number as my post-paid number. So, for several months I have been using my Dash post-paid with no problems. Yesterday I put my SIM card into the 6030 and it asked for a security pin code. I entered the default and it still would not let me in. I thought the 6030 would recognize my post-paid account! I called T-Mobile and they said I would have to get the phone unlocked. ?!? Today I received an email stating that I have to be in a contract for at least 3 months. I understand this for unlocking a phone in general, but for using a T-Mobile phone on a T-Mobile account? What am I missing here?
