You can yes but not in the same way that you can for a pay monthly. With pay monthly phones you can get a very accurate breakdown of the calls made each month by requesting itemized billing. This basically means that each month when a bill is received, it will have details of every call which has been made. These details will include date and time of phone call, the phone number and length of call. This allows people to check their bill is correct, work out where their money is being spent and, if necessary, inform the telephone company of any discrepancies or problems.
With a prepaid phone, on the other hand, you are not able to have itemized bills sent to you but you can still check call history; although it is far less accurate (especially if it is not your phone). All that can be done to check the call history of a prepaid phone is to use the inbuilt call system; the reason this is less accurate, is that call information can be deleted. This method, however, also has its more positive factors when compared with the itemized bill; for example, call history can be examined for incoming calls and missed calls as well as the dialled numbers shown in itemized bills. Most phones will provide details of when the calls were made/ received as well as information about call length.
Obviously all phones are different and so it is difficult to give instruction on how to work this feature. In general, there will be a 'calls' or 'phone' option on the main menu screen; click on this to go to the sub menu relating to calls. From here, the choice can be made as to whether incoming, outgoing or missed calls are viewed. So in summary, it is possible to check call history on prepaid phones however, the details on this list can be deleted, intentionally or accidentally, and so it is never 100% accurate.
