 graysonfPremium,MVM join:1999-07-16 Fort Lauderdale, FL | Refreshing I used to be a MetroPCS customer, but when my usage dropped I couldn't justify the price of an unlimited plan. At the time I was on their $40 plan and with all the BS taxes and fees this was really $50.38 per month.
Nice to see that I can get that same plan back for a total of $40.00 if and when I need to go back to an unlimited plan. I still have the phone they sold me.
That's the next thing this industry needs to do: Have universally usable unlocked phones such that changing carriers doesn't require a new proprietary phone. |

But then the only way they could keep customers is to offer better service or price. Not a chance that will happen. They like the cost of switching involved in your decision. -- Intel Q6600 @3400Mhz/GA-EP35-DS3P/4x 2048Mb G.Skill/WD Raptor 300Gb/3x WD20EADS 2TB/2x PNY GTX 260/Silverstone 850W/Custom water cooler |
