Compatible with your T-Mobile pay-as-you-go or monthly 4G plan, this T-Mobile $50 PREPAI refill card can be redeemed for talk time, text messages and data to help you stay connected on the go.
 

How many minutes of talk time does a $60 prepaid card buy?

I am interested in buying a phone with no contract strictly for talking. How many minutes does $60 buy?
A T-mobile $60 prepaid wireless card buys you 1 hour of "talk time".
Each minute of talk time is $1.

If you use your phone a lot then that 1 hour of "talk time" is not a very good value. Yet, if you use your phone very little, like for emergencies only, then you will have that $60 go quite a long ways.

Hope that helps!

Give the gift of airtime with this $10 card that features 30 minutes of talk time.
 

I would like to buy the t-mobile refill card but I want it to send the PIN through email for fast transaction, can it be possible? thank you

I advise you to dial *611 from your t-mobile cell phone. It is free phone call at no cost to t-mobile customer service. You should then ask the customer representative your question as to whether or not the PIN can be activated via email.
