How to Keep Track of Your Cell Phone Minutes

Keeping up with your cell phone minutes can be kind of tricky, if you don't keep track of your minutes. You can go over your limit, and your cell phone company will charge you extra for the extra minutes you used during the month. Some cell phone companies offer you roll over minutes, which means you can use the extra minutes you didn't get to used during the month, you can use them for the following month. This plan sounds very convenience, but not all companies have this great offer.

Things You'll Need

• Cell Phone
• Special Calling Number
• Paper and Pen/Pencil
• Refrigerator Magnet
• Refrigerator

Instructions

1. Find out the number of minutes you've got with your cell phone company, the date your minutes starts counting each month, and the date the minutes end.

2. Get your cell phone company special telephone number for keeping track of your cell phone minutes. Insert the number on your cell phone address book, check the speed dial number and have it ready, so you can check your minutes daily. You can check it once or twice a day depending of the number of times you want to check your minutes.

3. Check your minutes by calling the special number to check your minutes, no one will answer, you will just get a message showing you the number of minutes, the time, and the date, you have been using for the month. What you do with that information write the number of minutes you have used so far, down on a piece of paper, and save that piece of paper with a magnet on your refrigerator. Every time you call this special number you will add more minutes that you have used the next day.

4. On this paper write down the month, number of the day, time, and the number of minutes you've used. Keep up with this work until the end of the month. Keeping up with this plan, will keep you on track with your minutes used monthly.

5. Do this every month after month, so you can keep track of your minutes used, without ever going over your limit. This way the cell phone company will not charge you any extra for the minutes you used, which can be very costly.
