Re: Can anyone suggest a good cell phone plan?

I have Tmobile and I love them. Everyone on here says they s*ck but IMO they don't! I had At&t and I had more problems with them. My DH has Verizon and cant wait to switch to Tmobile. Plus Tmobile has the coolest phones Chat Icon

I pay 34.95 a month Never go over my minutes I think I have like 600 or something. The main reason I went with Tmobile was becasue of their texting plan. I text message A LOT!! My bill in one month has close to 2000 messages. I pay 10.00 a month and I get unlimited Texted and buddy to buddy (so I can call anyone with Tmobile for free)

I have NEVER had a dropped call with them. I had an old phone that I had some problems with but with my new phone that I have for a year no problems.

This is my phone

Quite the oppositte for me. I recently switched from Nextel to Verizon and I am really dissappointed. I lose so many calls with VerizonChat Icon and that rarely if not NEVER happened with Nextel. The bill was the same amount of $$.

Same here!! I have t-mobile and love them. I had AT&T too and they stunk. I had a plan with them almost 7 years ago when I was a youngin and they screwed me, never sending me a reminder my contract was up, and sending me an $800 ohone bill. They just sent me a letter last month saying I owe them money still from 7 years ago, which is a crock!!

My mom has Singular and loves them!!

Re: Can anyone suggest a good cell phone plan?

Mike has Verizon and hes always asking me "do you have service cause I don't"

Plus they are so much more money then Tmobile. They charge you like crazy dumb prices. Like the first time he got his phone bill they charged him 5.00 for multiple pages Chat Icon

Re: Can anyone suggest a good cell phone plan?

I had T-Mobile and LOVED them
Same bill every month
Never dropped calls...great reception

Switched to Nextel b.c DH wanted to..It was MORE $$...Not as good...But still OK.

Now we switched to Cingular because we thought our Nextel bill was too high( 2 phones, no house phone, about $150 a month)

WE HATE cingular. I have about 4 dropped calls a DAY! And our first bills were $300, $650, $350, $225 ..
I cant wait to switch again!

and every month since, my bill is a total of 2 pages, never go over my minutes, I have 600min unusual for me to use 400. with my 1000text message plan my bill usually comes out to 66bucks a month Chat Icon for service that i can not even use everywhere cant wait to switch Chat Icon. I cant even begin to tell you how many times we will be in a store i will have 1 bar or no service ask kristin and she will have full service. them being one of the best wireless providers is a crock of sh it, they are definatly paying someone big bucks to promote their service as such.

also with verizon you sign a 2yr contract, must other providers only make you sign for a yearChat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon my contract would be over with anyother provider now i have another 10months

The bottons on mine look different but its the same phone just older. But still a great phone and I love it. I liked it cause it was a little "rubbery" and I can bounce it off the floor a few times with out it busting into a billion pieces Chat Icon

Re: Can anyone suggest a good cell phone plan?

I have tried both AT&T and T-Mobile. I hated both of them. In my opinion, T-Mobile is better than ATT, but nowhere near as good as Verizon which is what we have now. We have no, and I mean none, dropped calls and we have no service problems.

Good luck in your search!

Good luck trying to decide now with all these different answers! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon
Where do you live? That will also make a difference since every carrier has more towers in some areas than others. It also depends onthe phone. DH and and I are both on Verizon. I have been a loyal customer (no, I don't work for them!!) for many years now and have never had a problem at all. I always have service even when other people with Verizon don't. It really depends on the phone in addition to the service.
