I've been using Tracfone for many years. I rarely need a cell phone but it does come in handy now and then. Such as, making the rare cell call It's also a good safety item to have.

Even spending the least I can for the call/data/text "packages" available they keep adding up...
5.26 GB DATA, REMAINING
6258 TEXT REMAINING
8012 MINUTES REMAINING

It's around $10 a month to keep it active. I finally just this year just purchased a year at a time card/plan. Not sure what to call it, maybe a "bucket of minutes" lol.

I can also use it for map/voice guided driving directions from my phone, again rarely needed. It was really handy navigating to a dental office in a much larger city than I live in. I may upgrade my iPhone, which is a lot easier without an expensive service fee. But, if you did make a ton of calls a different service may be better. Price then out.

If I was not interested in tracfone I'd go "consumer cellular."

Disclosure, once upon a time I worked for years as a call service rep for Nextel/Sprint. Probably why I don't really like cell phones in general.

I saw your question. You could purchase a "minutes" track phone card and keep it in your car/whatever and activate the minutes when you do need to make a call. Probably don't keep your same number though. I'm fairly confident that tracphone is probably the least expensive way to keep an active phone.
