Re: Choosing a phone company
Well, it was kind of a Christmas present. It was for my wife and if I’m getting myself the top-of-the-line iPhone then if I’m trying to get her off the flip phone I’m gonna try to get the best phone that I could afford.

There are two cons to consider and many pros. The cons: First, support is only available through 24 hour chat on their website or through a smart phone app. No email, no phone number. Second, if service gets congested in your area then your data will be slowed in preference to direct Verizon customers. I have noticed this, especially during these stay at home months, when in a rural area I frequent. But, service in town is very good. The pros: * Their plan provides unlimited calls, unlimited texts and unlimited data, along with hot spot service with no caps, all for one monthly price of $40 or as low as $25. I particularly needed hot spot capability so this feature was a big draw; I have not been disappointed. * That $40 monthly cost will be less if you join a Party Pay group. A Party Pay group can have 2 members for a $5 discount per person each month; 3 members for $10 discount monthly and 4 members for $15 discount monthly, or only $25. No additional fees. There is no catch to joining a Party Pay group. No one shares a bill or any other connection except for getting the group discount. I easily found an open Party Pay group on Reddit and joined within a few minutes. * After two months of paying for service they send a virtual MasterCard worth $100. If you can handle the two minor drawbacks then I think It is a good service option.

Re: Choosing a phone company
I have not used Consumer Cellular. But I have been very pleased with service through Visible.com. I believe they are a wholly-owned company by Verizon and use the Verizon cell network and sell under-used band width. There are two cons to consider and many pros. The cons: First, support is only available through 24 hour chat on their website or through a smart phone app. No email, no phone number. Second, if service gets congested in your area then your data will be slowed in preference to direct Verizon customers. I have noticed this, especially during these stay at home months, when in a rural area I frequent. But, service in town is very good. The pros: * Their plan provides unlimited calls, unlimited texts and unlimited data, along with hot spot service with no caps, all for one monthly price of $40 or as low as $25. I particularly needed hot spot capability so this feature was a big draw; I have not been disappointed. * That $40 monthly cost will be less if you join a Party Pay group. A Party Pay group can have 2 members for a $5 discount per person each month; 3 members for $10 discount monthly and 4 members for $15 discount monthly, or only $25. No additional fees. There is no catch to joining a Party Pay group. No one shares a bill or any other connection except for getting the group discount. I easily found an open Party Pay group on Reddit and joined within a few minutes. * After two months of paying for service they send a virtual MasterCard worth $100. If you can handle the two minor drawbacks then I think It is a good service option.

Re: Choosing a phone company
Hi Carolyn, the unlimited plan that I misspoke about was for three phones with 35 GB shared for $103 which I think is excellent and this amount includes tax. The AT plan that I am on now I pay $150 which includes tax and also includes a 19% discount because I used to be a New York City public school teacher. So, I’ll try it out on my own first and then see if it’s actually worth it.

Re: Choosing a phone company
I’ve dealt with all kinds of customer representatives from AT, Apple, Apple disability, Microsoft accessibility, even one plus, my wife’s phone. They all have customer representatives who are excellence and those Whoborder on the intellectually challenged or those with a very heavy foreign accent. It was very difficult dealing with one plus being that my wife is completely on knowledgeable about android and I don’t know or have it figured out how to turn on talkback on her phone. It took more than a week back-and-forth with the company trying to get them to take the phone to repair it.I think that Iam going to have to buy a cheap android phone just to learn how to use talk back So that I can help my wife. .

RE: Choosing a phone company
When I first had Consumer Cellular and got an SE, we couldn't figure what was draining my battery. The guy there thought it could be Raise to Wake, directed us how to fix that, and it seems like there was something else, well, there was, but I can't remember the problem, but he went to applevis.com and figured what we should do for that solution. The only reason that I left them is that they don't have a store here, and neither my husband nor I felt confident to do all that needed doing to go from one phone to another one. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of kitty hevener Sent: Monday, June 15, 2020 4:41 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Choosing a phone company Yeah, I did find that to be an issue when dealing consumer cellular.

Re: Choosing a phone company
are use a company called straight talk. You can sign up at Walmart, if there’s one near you. A basic plan is $35 a month, and the coverage is excellent. Good luck. Also, their website is very accessible. Straight talk.com, and their tech help is also very good.
