With cell phones.
My mom and I share a cell phone plan. We get 1000 minutes with free nights and weekends, with T-mobile. The signal is well...okay. Sometimes you get a full signal, sometimes you've got no signal. Lately we've been talking about switching and getting a different plan. Well, there's lots of choices... Alltel, Centennial, At&t (Cingular), Verizon, Sprint...how do you choose?
We don't need 1000 minutes. We don't even come close to using all those minutes between the 2 of us. We would be okay with 500 minutes. Does anyone reading have any thoughts about what services they use and what they like? ? ? I might not even get a share plan. I might get something separate, something cheap. A lot of companies have the pay as you go phones, but I'm not so sure about those. I think I would rather just pay 40 bucks a month, and KNOW that I have minutes plus free nights/weekends.
Does anyone have any input? Any Ideas? Or Any Suggestions?
I'd really appreciate it!
Please, give me some feedback, anything!!!

    We use Sprint and we have loved it for 6 years!! (Ryan used them for a few years before I joined his plan too!) We don't have a house phone, so we live on our cell phones. I don't know a whole lot about their plans pricewise... (Ryan does all that stuff. I *think* we pay $90 a month, but that's both our phones, plus my mom's phone. I don't know how many minutes we have, but we have unlimited nights -starting at 7pm- and weekends and even with all three of us using our minutes, and us having no other home phone, we never run out of time.)... but we have never had any problem with service or reception. I have had some problems with my phone itself, but Sprint was always quick to replace it for me.

    What I like about them is it's the same no matter where you're calling to or calling from... you don't have to be in your own area and you have no long distance anywhere in the U.S. and surrounding territories. Even calling Guam (which is where our Sister and Brother-in-law are living right now) is free for us. All of our family always had to use our cell phones to call them... unless they wanted to spend an arm and a leg on long distance to Guam!

    HAHA, not that you'd probably be needing to call Guam all that often, but we have been really happy with Sprint. Plus it's always free minutes to talk to any one else who uses Sprint... not just people on your plan.

    I am not sure if they have any plans that you would like, but I've been using Verizon for a couple years and they have been dependable.
    I have always had a good signal where I live, not sure if they have good coverage where you live though, I would think so but you never know!
    Anyway, just thought I would give you an idea :)
