1. A method for determining a most cost effective wireless service plan for a wireless device implemented at least in part in the wireless device comprising:
tracking, via a wireless device processor, wireless service usage information based on wireless usage by a user of the wireless device, the wireless service usage information being captured in an ongoing manner as used by the wireless device;
transmitting, via the wireless device, the wireless service usage information to a server;
generating, via the server, a simulated wireless service based on the wireless service usage information by searching wireless service plans based on the wireless usage by the user;
determining, via the server, a cost of various wireless service plans based on the simulated wireless service;
determining, via the server, a most cost effective wireless service plan in response to determining the cost of various wireless service plans; and
displaying, via a graphical user interface on a display of the wireless device, the most cost effective wireless service plan information.
