AT&T's GoPhone allows you to skip the hassles of long-term contracts by choosing to either purchase pre-paid phone cards or pay for your intended amount of usage directly from your credit or debit card or checking account. As a result of these types of plans, you will sometimes need to check your GoPhone balance. In that case, you have several options.
