While visiting California recently ,I used an AT&T Pay As You Go

each reduced my credit by $0.25
A true pain in the bum.

I think that almost all cellphone spam is based on simply dialing
numbers in sequence on an exchange known to belong to cellphones,
rather than being directed to you specifically.

Since it's already illegal to use machine dialers to call cellphones,
adding your number to a don't call list certainly won't mean much to
the caller.

On the other hand, I've had a Verizon account with two lines for about
10 years, and have been carrying a T-Mobile pre-paid phone for about a
year and have never, ever received any unwanted phone calls or text
messages.

I agree with the above except my wording would be "never, ever received any
unwanted phone calls or text messages, except from Verizon itself." I get
plenty of those.
