METRO PCS A T-MOBILE SUBSIDIARY, just put out a flyer that said 4 phone lines for $100, free phones after rebate (Nokia windows and Samsung ) anyway seems an interesting deal, can't find the flyer to see the fine print. I'm currently with Boost and $40 on a Kyocera / Sanyo but not super happy with phone or boost. Any thoughts?
 
we were just talking about phones tonight we want reliability but at low cost under $50.00 a month for unlimited nationwide talk,text pictures and web. I like at+t and do not want anything to do with verizon because when they were the only ones in town they did what they wanted and i refuse to do anything with them.
I have boost because i used to have nextel and they changed i also have at+t because they are reliable.
 
whats your usage?
whats sprint's service in your area?

Ting.com

and republic wireless

both offer very interesting service..

both use sprint's towers

ting will roam voice/text only on verizon if sprint is unavailable.

my ting bill is 46$ for 2 smart phones.
it is tiered and you pay for what you use.
my bill includes 2 phones, 500m,1000txt,1gb, taxes.


republic wireless offers unlimited voice/text for 10$
voice text 3g for 25$

voice text 4g for 40$

Reliable varies widely by location.

IMO, this is significant. Most of the third parties who use Sprint have no roaming, and Sprint's native coverage is really poor in many areas. If you subscribe to Sprint directly you may never notice this problem because for some years now they have had a roaming agreement with big red.
