On a per minute basis, yes. But, depending on your usage it may represent the best value. I have a pay as you go plan from Cingular. I am required to add $25 to my account every three months. Any balance left over is carried over as long as I add another $25 before the 3 months are up. Its does cost me $.35/min peak and $.10/min offpeak for usage.
But for me this works out the best. As an example, my last renewal was in September. After adding another $25 I had a balance of almost $60. So the service costs me less than $10/month. No other monthly plan comes close to that.
