Cell Phone Plans for Seniors: PureTalk USA Unlimited Plan

We featured the PureTalk USA Flex Plan as a possible cell phone plan for seniors last April. It's about time to look at another senior-friendly plan from this provider. Let's discuss the PureTalk USA Unlimited Plan and see if it can be of some use to seniors.

As its name suggest, the PureTalk USA Unlimited Plan offers unlimited features. This means that there are no daily, weekly or monthly limits for the subscribers.

But what about the price? Well, this unlimited plan offers $39.95/month but it has no limits so it might be a great deal for some users.

Here are the advantages of getting this senior-friendly plan:

• all taxes and fees are included
• no contracts
• no long distance/roaming fees
• free voicemail
• unlimited text and calls
• unlimited, day or night, weekends and weekdays

So is this a suitable plan for seniors? Well, it's affordable as far as unlimited plans are concerned. However, it all depends on usage. A senior who only makes calls occasionally would be better off with a cheaper plan with far less minutes. But a senior who needs to be in constant touch with family and friends should be able to enjoy the PureTalk USA Unlimited Plan.

That's it for this week. Stay tuned as we feature more plans and cell phones for senior citizens.

Cell Phone Plans for Seniors: PureTalk USA Flex Plan

I was browsing the Snapfon website when I checked out the section for their cell phone plans for seniors. This company offers the Snapfon ez One, one of the mobile phone for seniors I featured in the past.

Without further ado, let's look at the PureTalk USA Flex Plan for the Snapfon ez One.

The company pairs the mobile phone for senior citizens with the offerings of PureTalkUSA, a nationwide provider of low cost rate plans. Why is this plan ideal for senior users? Well, it starts at $10/month for 101 minutes with no contract, no restrictions, and no extra fees.

The PureTalk USA Flex Plan also allows users to adjust the plan to fit their needs and budget (hence the name FLEX, from flexible). Subscribers can select from 101 minutes to 1000 minutes depending on their needs.

There's another useful feature from this senior-friendly cell phone plan. The PureTalk USA Flex Plan offer rollover minutes so the elderly can have the freedom to carry unused minutes over into another month. They never expire so here's no need to worry.

Snapfon Ez One Cell Phone for Seniors at CTIA

I have to say that I'm pleased to see cell phones for seniors being displayed at major wireless shows like CTIA. Emporia phones were showcased at MWC and Doro phones got some action at CES so I hope this trend will continue.

This the time the Snapfon Ez One cell phone for senior citizens was showcased at CTIA Wireless 2010 in Las Vegas. This handset looks very similar to the ZTE S302 and the iNO CP09. I guess it's the same model under different names. The device is being sold for $99.99.

Here's the video captured by the folks at Butterscotch.com:



The Ez One cell phone for seniors is an ideal device for senior users. Like other senior-friendly handsets, it has big and bright keypad buttons, large fonts, and a built-in SOS button.

This handset also has some interesting bonus features such as the LED flashlight, built-in digital FM tuner, and included Hi Fi headset.

I hope you enjoyed the video. I think it will tell you much moe about the Ez One than any text I cn add.
