• While we acknowledge the fact that Virgin Mobile provides a cool brand with their prepaid phone plans, it all boils down to how many minutes you get on the phone to connect with your loved ones abroad. Virgin Mobile’s international call rates are not quite easy on the pocket with a flat rate of 40¢ to all the countries their system currently supports.
