Does anyone use this? It seems like such a cheap deal, why doesn't everyone use it? :confused:

$50 a month for unlimited everything Obviously you have to pay full price for the phone, but it would still save in the long run.

What type of coverage do they have? Do they use the same towers ATT or verizon use or what?

Yep, it's different for different areas, but for my area it's T-Mobile and ATT.

and they have all the latest phones? how much does the S3 cost?

No, you bring your own phone, basically. They sell phones, but not ones I'd want. That's why I said you'd have to pay full price for your phone, but still seems worth it because I pay over twice that per month for service now.

If the reviews are good and you can find a deal somewhere on a good phone I guess I dont see a bad reason to switch.

I don't think there's any "deal" on a phone. It's $550. I love the idea of not having a contract, but get nervous about being with any carrier less reputable than the big names. :dunno:

just did a quick search and the reviews on service are so so. then again so are ATT and Verizon.

not sure i would spend $500 something on a phone only to find out the service sucks with the new carrier.

i guess you could always take your phone and switch back though.

Go Verizon. Most 4G LTE coverage in the US. AT&T is 2-3 years behind Verizon in terms of there 4G. You pay more but as the saying goes you get what you pay for. Go to a diamond wireless Verizon outlet or inline store. they can give better deals than a corporate store.

AT&T is trying to catch up to Verizon but they wont. THey invested their money on the iphone deal back in the day and Verizon said no thanks and invested in more towers and 4G LTE development.

I know it has 4G LTE. But you will not come close to verizons coverage and speed. Even the CEO of at&t admitted it.

AT&T CEO: Our 4G LTE network is 2-3 years behind Verizon’s [updated] | BGR

Funny how he thinks verizon will stop developing their 4g network and let them catch up. They wont.

Sorry to hear you will continue with shitty service, slow internet and dropped calls :p :weights:

I have been with ATT for two years and can honestly say I have NEVER had a dropped call, ever. Internet is fast, service is great, I can't complain about anything except for the guys at the ATT store that I didn't like. :panic:
