I have two cells.
One with tracfone service, the other is not activated, just charged.

I can call 911 on the inactive phone, but nothing else.

And there is NO monthly fee on a tracfone! It's all pre-paid and you can
control the costs based on how much you use the phone's air time.

After it's activated etc. and you pay for the initiation (which is not
expensive) they end up running you around 10 cents per minute nation
wide.
