cell phone service
 

Alright...this can be like arguing religions, but im looking for feedback on cell phone service. Currently I have ATT, and have had them for a few years, but since I moved to flagstaff, their service hasnt been that great. I have since upgraded the sim card in my RAZR (shouldbe called a POS), and it seems to have improved. However, I am off contract and month to month right now, so I am a free agent. I have been comparing ATT, Verizon, Tmobile, and Sprint. I tend to talk aroun 500 min/month and text between 200-300 / month. my synopses:

ATT - really good prices on phones, especially since I am a returning customer, but their texting plans suck, unless you are a total junkie. Rate plansor ok. Moving up night and weekends is expensive. Service ok it seems.

Verizon - Expensive phones, decent rate plans, early night and weekends not too bad. Texting plans better than ATT it seems. Service supposedly pretty good in my area.

Tmobile - Cheap rate plans, very cheap texting. Phones about avg price. Service unknown. Have heard bad things about the service.

Sprint - Avg rate plans, early night and weekends inc. Text plans reasonable as well. Phone prices a little steep. Service quality unknown in my area.

your input?

I have sprint and ihave hated it for the 4 years that ive been iwth them. I havent bothered to change because i dont really use my phone. My mom and sister have tmobil and they hate it, id ont really know why there still with it. I havent heard anything but good things about verizon. Then again im in NY so our coverage may be a little different.

I can't really recommend any of those because the only service that is worth a crap here in Mississippi is Cellular South. I get service anywhere. It's a crapshoot if you will get any service with the other providers. My plan is unlimited nationwide free anytime calls for $59.99 plus unlimited text messaging for $7 extra.I added another line with the same things for my wife for $29.99. So for about $100/month I don't ever have to worry about using up my minutes, roaming, or long distance calls. Plus I can text all I want. That could just be something to compare to. I think it is so funny when those big companies advertize some "new" service that Cellular South has been offering for years.

Hi, Ive had both TMobile..4rs with TMobile last 2yrs was a fight with mystery charges..Sprint plan sucks mystery charges,POOR customer service,and WAY to many dropped calls....I now have Pre Pay with NET10..NO troubles what so ever!!! I pay $30 for 300mins n serves me fine..I bought the cell (Nokia) for $43 or so with 300 mins right off the bat...:)

RE: cell phone service

RE: cell phone service

RE: cell phone service
 

go with verizon,, they run specials at times when you can get phone real cheap..
Go online on their home site and look around for specials ..

I have US Cellular. Not many complaints. Just remember that the service isnt always the satellite..it may be the phone.

Oh and btw, when we get cell phones my mom always refuses to pay the activation fee. Guess what? She always gets it free. They arent going to lose comission/ a customer over a $30 charge. Trust me it works! They'll be like well...you have to and after awhile they will eventually call headquarters and youll save some dough!
