Sprint Service Or AT&T - Page 3

I also live in one of those ""iffy"" neighborhoods (mountains). I have a phone that will grab onto either AT&T or T-Mobile.

I'd ask people who live in your area. My husband finally got mad enough at AT&T that we left them and went to sprint (it was over our home internet, really horrible). Anyway, our friends/neighbors told us we shouldn't and they were right. Texts that don't go through, missed calls when my phone doesn't even ring, randomly checking voicemail and seeing missed calls I didn't know I had and drum roll please... we got up one morning and went to check whatever on our phones but couldn't connect to the network. Couldn't figure out why and went round & round with the settings. Finally called sprint, on hold, waited awhile then were finally told to reboot our phones. They had supposedly been doing work on the tower near us and we were kicked off. Lol They've trained me now, whenever I send a text I wait for confirmation that it actually sent.

Oh yea, except for right before Christmas and all the last minute rushing around and coordinating with family, I had sent several texts to different people and didn't realize that none of them had sent. A little bit later I heard my phone make its sound it makes when it sends a text and was like, wtheck? I sent that like 20 minutes ago. I looked and only one had gone through.

In more than 10 years with AT&T we never ever had issues like that. We'll be going back as soon as our contract is up.

We never had a plan or real company before. Just bought cheap phones and used Net10 prepaid minutes because my husband was always losing his phone. But this last time we went with Sprint. He bought a iPhone 5s outright full price from them and pays 60 a month no contract. 30 for unlimited talk/text and 30 for unlimited data. Oh, and he gets a 10% $3 discount for belonging to a credit union. It's working out fine. He's doing so much more on it now. And it syncs up to his new truck. And I can Facetime with him.

I too bought my 5S outright from Apple. I pay ATT non-contract monthly $60 with no added taxes, fees, etc. just the flat $60 for 3GB of data at 4G speeds, unlimited data at a lower speed after the 3GB, and unlimited talk and text. Not as cheap as T-Mobile or Straight Talk, but better consistent coverage, which is worth the little extra to me. I wouldn't even consider Sprint no matter how cheap they get. They just don't have decent coverage anywhere I am in a large urban area.

Thank you all for posting we went with AT&T since we had old cell phones we just reactivated them we got unlimited talk and text and the cheapest data plan for $60 no contract. I have a smartphone hubby does not.

We both had Tracfones but hubby was using his minutes up fast calling me every few minutes about things Tracfone was not working out for us.
