Net 10 Prepaid Cell Phone?

I purchased a $15 dollar Net 10 Cell Phone today and then seperatley I purchased a $50 Unlimited card.

When I activated it, it said I had 500,000 minutes. Every time I send a text, open a text, or talk on the phone my minutes start decreasing.

Why is this? Does this mean it actually isn't unlimited, or will it still work even when my "minutes" run out?

P.S. the reason 500,000 minutes isn't enough is because I fall asleep on the phone with my boyfriend everynight, and if it isn't unlimited that will use the minutes too fast.

Update:

it's 50,000; my bad!

    That's weird go contact net10 and tell them this. When it says unlimited then they should mean unlimited not just 500,000 minutes unless at the bottom or on the back it says in really small print or something that it's just 500,000 minutes.

    Don't worry, it's unlimited. Do the math:

    31 days* 60 min * 24 hours = 44 640 min

    There are 43,200 minutes in 30 days.You have 50,000 minutes to use which is approximately 34 days. It is not possible to go through 50,000 minutes in 30 days. They give you 50,000 minutes so you could still keep track of the minutes that you use if you need to.
