Re: Unlimited Data Is Their Draw

Exactly, without unlimited and lower prices I have to ask why I am not on Verizon.

Sprint is not going to freak out their pretty loyal customer base. unless they feel like going out of business.

Sprint actually is NOT cheaper. That's the thing. They charge just as much as the big 2. the only thing they have is unlimited and that really isn't much of a thing anymore when I can get an MVNO with full unlimited that roams now and roaming is included. Sprint doesn't include roaming any longer.

Do they still charge that $10 "why the hell not" fee that allows them to make it look like they charge less? If so, Hesse will likely jack that to $15.

They certainly are when I price shop. AT&T and Verizon are the same price, and Sprint (including their $10 4G fee) and T-Mobile are exactly $10/month less.

How is Sprint not cheaper?

My brother and I pay $120 for two lines with unlimited mobile to (any) mobile. We split 900 minutes, but it is impossible to use them up, as calling any cell phone and half of VoiP phones is free. So our total bill for the two lines comes out to be just under $130 after taxes and fees. Take out 22% discount I get through work and the bill is very good for having excellent coverage here in the North East, even have WiMax (through pretty useless) here in parts of Albany.

We pay around $100 for two lines and go through many gigs of data. My phone is rooted and tether is on all day I am connected with my tablet.

That is cheaper.

I should have jumped on the bandwagon like my father did and lock in VZ when it was unlimmited, because we have great LTE here, but it is also an extra $40/mo with less other features.

At the end of the day even Sprint's coverage is no issue because the phone comfortably roams on Verizon. I dont see much roaming, and I travel for work nearly every week.

BTW My work phone is with Verizon and I do love the 4G coverage, it is very good service, just expensive.

ATT has neither, poor coverage, dropped connections, and high prices. Their only huge advantage is that the are GSM, and I travel globally a lot, so having an unlocked GSM phone is a most.
