I originally had Sprint but dumped them for lack of customer service. Had Verizon now for over 10 years & great coverage & service Might be a bit pricey but works well on my overseas travels. Dwight Giles Jr. 1982 300CD 1990 300D Wickford RI On Sep 12, 2016 8:47 PM, "OK Don via Mercedes"

We have T-Mobile, and it works great in OK. It has been very disappointing in Quincy, MA, the NY finger lakes region, Traverse City, MI, and now in Sparta, IL. All these places seem to use Verizon - so if you travel, don't get T-Mobile. On Mon, Sep 12, 2016 at 8:07 AM, Kaleb C. Striplin via

I had them when I was trying to get the POS SDL home, oh so long ago. There was crap for coverage in OKC and Guthrie, but it did work. SWMBA made me switch to Verizon so calls would not drop when I was so far from home. I no longer travel in the boonies and T Mobile may have become much

Four of the five phones I have on our Verizon contract are purchased or out of contract phones. That makes them cost $15/month on our plan. While you can buy new phones from them with the cost divided up over two years and no interest, why? Buy a previous model used or refurbed and have it
