Question

I want to surprise my cousin with a cell phone. Is there anyway to get one in her name?
I dont want to have to do a transfer of liability. I know all about that. I just want to get her a cell phone and sign her up for a plan maybe even put some money toward the first months bill. Any ideas? Any ideas on getting a FREE phone? What about prepaid phones?

Answer

No you cant get a phone on her name, she needs to sing the contract herself, this is done to prevent fraud.brbrThe best you can do is ask if they have quotgift certificatesquot for cell phones OR just invite your cousing to the store and tell her she can pick up anyone she likes, this is the easier way to go. brbrAlso make sure she really want this a call phone is a responsability that can ruin her credit if she cant pay the bills.
