Switching service providers

[Josh Hudson]

Hi everyone,

I have been with Sprint for about 2 years now and i have not been too impressed. With my contract expiring, i will lose 4G since their LTE isnt wide spread yet. I am thinking of moving to Verizon. What are everyones thoughts, i will be getting a Galaxy and the Wife an Iphone 5. Right now we have 1500 min unlimited text and data. We are lucky if we use 800 min, average 1500 messages, and about 2 GB data 3G and 4G combined. I expect that number to go up with LTE and the iphone5. Any input is appreciated, I am in Delaware btw.

As you probably know, Verizon has a tiered data plan where you pay more depending on how much data you use. However, you can now pool voice and data between lines. Verizon tends to be more expensive than Sprint and T-mobile, but more reliable, and has a larger 4g network at the moment.

I have been comparing and the unlimited talk and text 4GB data is pretty close to what IM paying for sprint now. And I'm tired of having dropped calls

Verizon Wireless and AT&T are both great coverage wise. Sprint and T-Mobile are better with the pricing. If you can afford it, I'd probably go with Verizon Wireless. If you'd like to access their network at a lesser cost, you might be interested in Page Plus Cellular. You can't use the latest 4G phones with Page Plus Cellular though.

If you can afford Verizon then I'd go with Verizon. I've never had AT&T, but know people that have, and they've kept it for years. But from personal experience and driving half-way across the country without an interruption in coverage, Verizon is solid. (though you'll dig markedly deeper into your pocket). Consequently, I know people that swear by Sprint also. I don't know your situation, but I read an article last week that said that Metro PCs actually is ahead of the curve when it comes to LTE as they were the first carrier to offer it. Moreover, they said they would be open to unlocked iPhone 5 phones on their network.

I'd probably choose Verizon also, but I don't want to put out the money for it when there are cheaper alternatives. If I had access to unlimited funds, I'd most likely go with Verizon.

Verizon is really awesome.
