Cell Phones / Service
Please share with me your opinions on your cell phone services... our contract is up and our phones are starting to give us trouble. We'd like to go month to month, because we like our plan but we're looking into other companies and other plans...
What type of plan do you have? What is the estimated cost? What do you like/not like about your plan or your cell phone? Do you get reception of you travel outside the metro area?
Re: Cell Phones / Service
That's funny you mention that. We have t-mobil, the lake is the only place we don't get reception. Dad keeps trying us to get Verizon so we have reception down at the lake!!!!
DH and I just switched from US Cellular to AT&T. We were with US Cellular for about 4 years and were pretty happy with them. They have the free incoming plans, and we really needed something like that with DH's work (he has to use his personal cell phone as a primary work phone). We paid about $130/month for both of our phones to share 1700 (I think) minutes outgoing and free incoming. We did have service in smaller towns (it was actually in smaller towns before they came to St. Louis).
We actually switched because silly DH wanted to go with a company that had SIM cards so that it would be easier to switch phones if need be. I wanted AT&T because I wanted a nifty iPhone. I'm on a plan with my mom, so our bill is just for DH's, it's still around $130 just for his, but he has an unlimited plan for $99, and a data plan for $30. I know AT&T works in little areas, where my s-dad goes ATV riding some weekends, we didn't have service with USC, and my mom and s-dad didn't have service with T-Mobile.
DH was also interested in Sprint because they have an unlimited everything plan (voice, data, and maybe text) for around $100, but I told him to spend a little more and go with AT&T because that's what I was having (since I'm on a plan with my mom) so it wouldn't rack up a big bill on my end, and in reality, when you're spending that much on a phone, it's not that much more. He then wanted to check out Boost or Cricket but I quickly put an end to those companies, I just don't trust them. I don't see how they can offer unlimited for $40/month and be a quality company.
DH and I have iPhones through AT & T. I really don't have problems with reception. We pay around $140/mo for 2 lines and unlimited texting. I think I also get a discount through work. That is, when the bill is actually correct. CS is horrendous! Just for that fact, we may switch. But love the phone and the reception.
