I was never allowed to have a phone with a plan until recently, I always had prepaid phones such as tracfone, boost mobile etc.. I finally got a sidekick (T-Mobile) which enables a special plan that allows me to have unlimited texting, internet, email, and instant messaging all for $30.00. However, if I use the phone as in speaking to someone, it's $.20/min. I love it and haven't had many problems with it, the only problem was that I had a $56.79 bill pop up on my last bill, I rarely use the phone so I know it couldn't have been that. What I didn't know was that if I downloaded pictures sent from friends, that it is considered a bandwidth usage charge. I had no idea about being charged for downloading images. What's your favorite plan/service and why? Have you had problems with any other services?

I'll definitely have to say Verizon gets my vote! This weekend, my one daughter and I went to on a few hour trip to visit the other daughter. All have cell phones with other providers, and I have Verizon. Half the time my one daughter couldn't reach her hubby to check on things at home, and let him know we got there safe, etc... Lucky I get free weekend minutes lol, my cell phone was the only one that had enough bars to get calls done; they only had one (or none) and I had almost full. I think maybe that's because Verizon has so many more cell towers than some of the other providers. At least we're thinking that must be it... I also love that I can call anybody anywhere during the weekend, and weekday evenings after 9pm. I've had NO problems with my phone since I've had it :-)
