|  Thanks, Sprint
I pay ~33 dollars a month for this plan.
My service across the country has worked flawlessly and reliably in both rural and urban areas. Even during football games.
I have many free java applications on my phone from GPS to weather maps to gmail. My only additional expense on my plan is $2/month for wireless backup of my phone contacts in real-time to a sprint website. It's peace of mind in case I ever lose my phone - I won't lose my numbers.
I don't ever worry about going over any text, internet, or roaming limits because my only limit is 500 minute talk time per month. But anything after 6pm or weekends is unlimited. Sprint-sprint is unlimited. And voice roaming and digital data roaming is unlimited. I rarely spike 300 of my 500 minutes in a given month since most of my long calls occur at the end of my day. Either way, I tend to turn roaming off since it increases my battery life. No issues.
I know people like to give Sprint a hard time. I'm not denying the many bad experiences with customer service or billing - I've definitely had a few issues too. But when I'm nice and polite to the often overworked CS rep, they tend to reciprocate and leave me with even more respect for such a large company. The fact that the new CEO is taking all the right steps to turn this company around really makes me smile too. I would much rather prefer a 'terrible company' trying to improve rather than a 'terrible company' go bankrupt with the top executives lining their pockets.
Overall, I have to say my personal experience has been great. In fact, it's been fantastic. Even after 20 months of having this plan, I have yet to find any other US carrier come close to having all the features I have at a price like this with a strong signal everywhere I go.
Thanks, Sprint.  |
