What exactly is a prepaid cell phone?
I had a prepaid for a while. Yes, they are nice if you never really use them..otherwise..I wouldn't bother. It's nice also because there is no contract really. I would recommend them only if you are not going to use it that much. I think mine was about .28 cents a min. or so. It was pretty expensive. But if you don't want a lingering contract, then a prepaid is the way to go.

If you're being harassed, etc you can. If they purchased a prepaid plan, then the cell company - or the store where they bought it - should have their information on record. Have you called the person and asked who it is? Tell them you keep finding their number on your caller ID or something.
What are the best prepaid cell phone deals in the US?
Many of the options are MVNO's (Mobile Network Virtual Operators) which use a big 4 networks coverage. At Walmart you have the option of Straight Talk which you can pop in their SIM card, or you can look out for a Cricket Wireless store. Make sure the phone you have is GSM, I don't know about any of the other services but those two will run you $45 a month. You might look into a blackberry knockoff if you don't care about apps, some of those phones are relatively cheap and cost less a month, I hope that helps.
Can prepaid cell phones be tracked or traced?
Sure, it can be tracked if it is much of an interest to someone that want to have it tracked. It doesn’t matter if it is a prepaid or post-paid cell phone. That is just related to the services offered to a subscriber.Each cell phone has a unique identity number called the IMEI. It’s normally a 15 digit code and is used by service providers to identify valid devices on their network. If GSM service providers can block a reported stolen phone to be used on their network, it means they can also track the location of the stolen phone. There are other ways cell phones can be tracked even if it’s not connected to a service provider’s network.
Do u prefer postpaid or prepaid cell phones?
I prefer postpaid. Prepaid phones are for people who really don't use their phones they offer limited call times and and lack of variety in phone choices. Subscription phones cost more monthly but you get what you pay for the extended talk time and range of many different types of phones and services.
