Is the iPhone 4 8GB on Virgin Mobile a good deal?

Their site is telling me I can get 300 anytime minutes per month, with unlimited access to data and messaging.

This seems too good to be true, does it not? I know you need to pay for the phone itself, but what's the catch? Does Virgin Mobile's coverage suck or something? Haha.

Added (1). For $35 per month they say

Yeah you have to pay full price for the phone, but they do offer it $100 less than from Apple.
They do offer unlimited data and messaging, but their coverage sucks and their data is slow. You'll be better off with a reliable carrier.

I'm 100 PERCENT SURE THERE's NO UNLIMITED DATA ON VIRGIN, NOR ANY OF THE BIG 3 CARRIERS OR FIDO ASWELL. NOT EVEN KOODO. ONLY LIKE WIND (LOVING WIND) OR MOBILICITY (EHH) HAVE UNLIMITED DATA. All of them except for wind and mobilicity have a limit like 100 mb or like 2gb or 3 or 5 but not unlimited. So yeah you should double check

IPhone on Virgin sucks for it's unreliable service and uneven coverage. But $35/month is good and it's only because of that.

  • Would the iphone 4s 8gb be good on virgin mobile? I'm thinking about getting the 4s on virgin but i'm wondering if battery life is good, and is browsing good considering its 3g. I live in Dallas Tx so I don't know how good service would be. All I need is fast or at least descent web connectivity and enough memory for my apps and music.
  • Virgin Mobile iphone 4s: Does it work on T-mobile? If I purchased the unlocked iphone 4s from Virigin mobile would I be able to use it on T-mobile? Does anybody know if the virigin mobile iphone has a spot for a sim card like the ones T-mobile uses?
  • Virgin Mobile Canada to virgin mobile USA? So I bought an iPhone 4S that is locked to bell which they say is compatible with virgin mobile Canada carrier, but I'm moving back to United States soon if I unlock it I can use it in united states on the usa Virgin mobile carrier right?
  • Is Virgin Mobile a good choice for my first iPhone? I was thinking to buy the iPhone 4s for Virgin Mobile (USA) and was looking at the $35 plan, and wanted to know if Virgin's service is good? My aunt told me that if I switch Virgin they can also charge me whatever they wanted because I have no contract with them, is this true?
