What are “anytime” minutes?
Many plans now offer unlimited calls during nights and weekends but limit calls during peak hours—during the workweek from early morning until late evening. The minutes allotted to be used at no additional cost during these peak times are called anytime minutes. Q: What are considered nights and weekends? A: Nighttime calling usually starts between 7 p.m. and 9 p.m. and ends by 8 a.m. the following day. Weekends usually begin at the start of nighttime minutes on Friday and go through the end of your nighttime minutes on Monday.
Anytime Minutes are typically categorized as minutes that are used between the hours of 7am and 9pm Monday thru Friday. However, as the word implies they are minutes that can be used at any time of the day, any time of the month. For example, if you use up all of your Night and Weekend Minutes, but you still have 150 of your 200 Anytime Minutes left you will be able to use your Anytime Minutes during weekdays, at night or on the weekends.
