Well it depends, if this is your first cell phone I really recomemd a good prepaid carrier that will give you some good benefits, like; text messaging, web access, and easy to customize application.\n\n3 of the best and cheaper prepaid cellular vendors are Net10, LibertyWireless, and Virgin Mobile, their cell phones are high tech, and they offer plans for any budget.\n\nBut if you have a permanent job, you can go for Sprint PCS, they only charge a deposit of no more than $150 if you have poor credit if not you may pay only $25, $50, $75 or more depending on your credit. But they have a good plan that adapt to your calling habits, remember to find a good part time job first so you can keep up with the monthly payments for the 1 or 2 year contract.\n\nTry to get your cell phone online because on the internet you can get better offers than offline, the plans rates don't change but you can get free mobile phones that usually would cost you some money on any offline cell phone store.\n\nHope I help you a little bit on your purchase...\n\nGood luck!\n\nLuis Galarza, Business and Telecommunications Consultant\nI provide free business and marketing tips at http://luisgalarza.blogspot.com and wireless solutions and advice at http://www.cogni360.com

hey. i'm good at this cos i use my moms phone but its actually her phone. but i'm the one who uses it all the time. and she pays the bill. thats nice . try to do that. if not then read on\n\nparents dont wanna buy monile phones fer many reasons. waste of money, kids are glued to smss instead of studying, blah blah. but the key is this. as far as ive seen the kids dont actually have a good reason as to why they want it. tell em that we are living in an era of telecomunication and it has become an essential and not a luxury. tell them that it is needed for safety purposes. like when u go fer a party and this guy is bugging you out then u can call yer dad to come and beat him up.\nand tell them that u are not going to waste their money on messages to your friends.and like someone said play nice. get A's babysit, be nice to yer brother, help grandma take her pills whatever...and then push it slowly. you just might break throug. \n\none more IMPORTANT thing. if u feel that your parents are going through a financially tough time then dont ask. it would be a crime. the above is only applicable in situations where ur parents are financially able to buy u one

Just PROVE to her, and get your own money. Show her the money enough to buy the cell phone and pay for service for the next, say, 4 months. Explain to her that you need it for your own protection and not to take pictures of your friends and cha-cha about your latest crush. Good luck! ^^

You sound real young also.You need to understand that she looks up to you .And you need to be her little friend.And for your cell-phone if you show your parents that you can be trusted and responsible than you'll have a better shot.

ipod nano or iriver clix. or one of those expensive purses. or a pink razr. Those are the things my sisters, which are around the same age as your sister, want.\n\nOh if you feel like spending a little more, a laptop.

I think 11 is appropriate if kids are getting a phone like the firefly from Cingular (no I don't work for them).  It has a button for Mom, Dad, and a phonebook that only Mom and Dad can put numbers into.  It has no keypad.  Otherwise, 13 or 14 works depending on the kid, and probably 14 because they're entering high school and may need to get into contact with parents or other people for rides home after school.    I know it helped me back during those days, but I lost too many things to be responsible with a cellphone before 13.

Start being an adult.  Be respectful, responsile, and mature.  You will enjoy life more.  Okay?  If I was your parent, you wouldn't have a cell phone at all.  Be greatful for what you DO have in life.

a home phone or cell phone. I presume it is cellphone since noone is too stupid to steal a homephone.\n\nContact your service provider and tell them to block anyfrom that phone and (if possible) redirect the phone calls to it to a number you specify (perhaps your new cell phone). And no, noone would buy you a new handphone for you.

well with anything there are good and bad.\nWhat I have for 100. a month\n2000 anytime min-\nFree nights and weekend from 7pm to 7am and free from friday7pm till monday 7am\nvoice mail/call waiting/3 way/text mail\ne-mail/\nand there is no long distance charge It covers the whole USA\nAnd for that price it dont matter If im in Ohio or Califorina There is no romein charge\nSo it aint to bad. Its Cingular Wirless some have better deals some dont.\nAnd some Facts about the Phone\nIt will not make you blow up if you put gas in your gas. \nIt will not give you brain damage\neven though people say this does happen there is not enough to back it up firmly\nAlso with a Cell most are GPS this means Big brother (The goverment ) could find you if they wanted to. Any Gps system Can be found right down to your cell.\nAlso Battery talk time is about 3 to 4Hours Pending on the phone.\nAnd some areas the phone dont work that great.\nBut also alot of people Use there cell and get rid of there home phone. I was spending 120 a month+ on my home Bill I have a construction company. And I switched to the cell and dropped the home phone. I Never have went over my Min- And return Calls after 7. Plus Important calls I dont miss anymore. Alot of People call me and want to talk right there and then. Since I Switched My Company Has made more Money since I didnt lose new customers. \nBut In the end. Home phone and cell phone they both have there ups and downs. \nBut I can say 1 thing for sure. 2 Yrs ago A friend got hurt and We were at a job and I had no other way to call 911 but my cell. In the end I was told By the ER Doc If I would have drove him or waited any longer he would be dead.\nSo Cell Phones Can save your life.\nOh my God I just saw the other answers. \nDONT GET ONE YOU WILL DIE!!!!\nNo you should not use it to have a fight with the wife while drivein your car. DUh \nAnd your boss could call you---- You only give the number out to who you want to have it. \nAs long as you have common sence and im sure you do. You will be ok you will not die. You will not wake up with a tummor the size of Ohio in your head.\nAnd to anyone else who thinks this.\nEvery day we use PC watch Sat-tv listen to the radio. \nPolice use radios/cbs /Wireless net \nIf this happens 24/7 and it affects everyone unless you live in a lead house how much do you think a little cell phone is gonna do.\nAnd the gas pump. Your cell dont have that much juice- If you take your speaker wires off your speaker and touch them together you will get a spark 100 times bigger then your cell. If your car is running there is spark. \nNow I know alot of people have seen the Photo with the car on fire at the gas pump That (WAS) caused ny the cell phone.\nHas anyone ever heard of a computer and a photo program and the word Crop???? I guess what we all see we should all belive NOT

Your best bet would be to go to a store like Kmart or Walmart and purchase a pay as you go cell phone. Since you don't have a bank account or a credit card you probably wouldn't be able to get a contract phone. Before I got my contract, I had a nice motorola cell phone and my phone company was net10 wireless. It's really simple, just 10 cents a minute and 5 cents for texts messages. You can purchase the phone and phone cards in Kmart or Walmart stores. If you want more info here's the website for net10:\n\nhttp://www.net10.com/home_page.jsp?b=i&flash=YES&p=W&task=home_page

I know an 8-year-old whose parents gave him a specially-programmed cell phone for emergencies. It's programmed with only two or three numbers he can call, like the parents and 911. I think that's a good idea with all the predators out there.
