RE: Sprint launches LTE+ service

2015-11-20 Thread M. Taylor
Thank you for posting this, Scott.  

I know some people who will definitely be checking this new offer out as they 
are in the market for a new cell provider.

I am so happy that Sprint is fighting for new customers.  Nothing like 
competition to keep the prices down and the standard for new technology, up.

Mark

Re: Sprint launches LTE+ service

2015-11-20 Thread Kawal Gucukoglu
Just wish to know, can’t you get a good pay as you go service from US if you 
can’t afford contract?

I have a Pay as you go plan but once I have put the credit on it, I can spend 
the same credit to get an all you eat data add on with excellent voice calling 
minutes which last for 30 days.  However, I rarely use the voice calling 
minutes as everyone I know has an I phone so I take advantage of I message and 
Audio Face time both is free and all you can eat data unlimited when I’m out 
and about.  Of course I use wireless at home so no cost at all.

Just interested to know.

Thanks.

Hello Scott.

I have 4G. I think you can get various kinds of speed is here, but I'm not sure.

I am on three, so I am familiar with their network. 4G comes at no additional 
cost.

It is very fast!

I forgot to add one more thing.

With 3, I can for example go to the USA and use my network and only get charged 
as if I was calling from the UK.  3 has agreements with certain countries that 
you can go there and get charged the same as if you were calling from your 
country of origin.

Kawal, there are all sorts of options in the states now which is a real 
improvement over how things were.  You can buy pre and post paid services from 
the big carriers here now, T-Mobile has a very flexible set of plans and then 
there are the resellers / rebranded services that have even lower cost and pay 
as you go options.
For example here in the states my plan is $100 US monthly which I think 
is about 65 British Pounds.  I get two lines each fully unlimited including 
unlimited operation in several countries, unlimited 4G data and unlimited 
messaging.  I could get away with a lot less but I like not having to worry 
about usage, I can’t go over any set levels.  But yes you can find a plan to 
fit what ever payment model you want.  How are your speeds on the network there 
across the pond?  My carrier is in the middle of a huge upgrade and has blazing 
speeds for the US available in more areas now even rural.  In the middle of a 
large city speeds of over 100 megabits per second are quite common.  Rural 
areas or deep inside large buildings you can average 25 or so.  What are your 
services like there?
