More fool you.

At 8c a call, for the total cost of the call, regardless of how long it lasts,
both national and international, with no fixed monthly charge at all, I wont
be spending anything like $150 and there is no hardware cost whatever either.

I'm switching to Tracfone. Last year, my phone costs were about
$350. I expect to reduce that to about $110 this year.
PagePlus is a much cheaper alternative to prepaid, with better coverage
than Tracfone.

Interesting site. But it depends on your usage patterns.
I use T-Mobile prepaid, and the site overestimates the minimum cost of
that. You don't need to spend $100 for the first year, you could do
it for less than half that, buying $10/30 minute refills (good for 90
days) for $9.30. But after you have put $100 (over whatever period)
into time, you get a discount (more minutes, actually) on future
cards, and time doesn't expire for a year.

True, after $100 you can buy one $10 card per year (for around $9).
Until you reach "Gold" you have to buy one $10 (for around $9) card
every 90 days, so it's around $3/month.
The big rip-off are services like Tracfone and Jitterbug in terms of
minimum monthly cost as well as per minute rates.
On some older phones incoming texting is free. This was also the case
back in the TDMA days. Keep those old phones!
CallingMart sells the 400 minute Tracfone card for $94.09 after an
additional 3% discount with the code "ca3p-1207" (occasionally they have
7% discounts). A 400 minute card doubled to 800 minutes costs $94.09/800
minutes = 11.8¢/minute. If you find a bonus deal, it also brings the
price down. I.e. www.wirelessrefill.com offers 300 bonus minutes on the
$100/400 minute/365 day card, so you get 1100 minutes if you have DB4L
(Double Minutes for Life) which would bring the cost down to
9.1¢/minute, which is less than T-Mobile.
Yes, Tracfone is still cheaper than a monthly plan for light cell phone
users, but if you're really looking to cut your phone costs to the
minimum then Tracfone isn't the best option.
The chart on "http://prepaiduswireless.com/" entitled " How Many Minutes
Per Month Can You Get for Different Monthly Amounts of Money?" is useful
for comparing providers, as is the chart entitled "How Much do Different
Numbers Of Minutes Per Month Cost You on Each Provider?"
The big draw for Tracfone is that the handsets are so cheap, but it's
more expensive than the competition both in per month costs and per
minute costs.

I use the free access untimed plan.

Guess which pathetic little prat has just got egg all over is pathetic little face, as always ?
Change from Net10 to one of the low cost prepaid plans, and you can save
even more.
I expect that he's using Pennytel's Free Access Untimed service which
offers AUD 8¢ untimed calls via VOIP. It's a better deal than Magic Jack
if you'll be doing a lot of international calling to the AUD 8¢
countries and numbers.
Never ever could bullshit its way out of a wet paper bag.
