1000 mobile to mobile home minutes. The cost for this Alltel plan ranges between
$39.99 and $299.99 a month depending on the amount of anytime minutes you choose.

large cities with coverage. However, subscribers in smaller cities and rural areas
or making calls to these places may incur unexpected charges. The benefit, however,
is more anytime minutes in the same price range as in the Total Freedom Plan. For
