New at cell phones

[booperq]

I just signed up for my first cell phone Verizon Wireless G'zOne Boulder™ Black & Silver and love it. I have the NATIONWIDE BASIC 450 $39.99 with the $0.45 peak , $0.45 off-peak! I know that I use my minutes between a certain time of 6:00am-9:00pm but do I use my minute up if people call me?

Yes. The 450 minute allowance is for non-mobile-to-mobile calls made and received from 6am to 9pm, Monday through Friday. Nights and weekends are unlimited (calls made or received).

If you use your phone a lot during that time period and the people you call or that call you are not mobile-to-mobile, you might want to go to a higher plan. If you do, you would be eligible for the Friends and Family 5 feature, which would allow you to receive and make calls to those 5 specific numbers regardless whether they're land line, mobile, or otherwise (US numbers only though). The next plan up is the 900 anytime minute basic $59.99 plan.
