    Cell phone company?

    Are you happy with your cell and/or landline telephone provider? 
    What kind of services do you receive and, if you don't mind, about how much do you pay per month?  What is the contract duration, or are you month-to-month?  Do you have to renew your contract when you upgrade a phone and how much does it cost you to activate the new phone?
      Is there any other information you can give me about your cell/land service that would help me decide whether or not to switch from Sprint?
    My three sons have $30/month each plans on my account.  Add that to my plan of 1500 SHARED minutes, free cell-cell, nights and weekends, and an extra 200 anytime minutes ($5/month), along with unlimited text and data usage for all four of us.   My bill is around $200/month AND I am getting an "employee" discount for MY number. It took 5 calls to get Sprint to properly UNblock a number from my son's phone.  The amount of time, frustration, and inconvenience, accompanied by the extension of the contract at any upgrade, plus the $35 activation fee for a change in phone has me thinking I need to go elsewhere. 

    AS ALWAYS, Thanks for your help!

    Greed greed greed, I've been with my TV,broadband, landline phone provider for more than 15 years, I'm seriously thinking of changing now as their charges are increasing twice per year now, I see all the other offers advertised that look great, but when you actually get into the details it's not much cheaper (or even more expensive in some cases) "ROCK, HARD PLACE", PfffffTTTTTTTTT!!!

    You are right, Roy. Those "great deals" are for an intro period of as little as 3 months, then the "real" price kicks in and is as much or more than what you're trying to avoid. :(

    Try "Talk Talk" Dougal, OK for 6 months then they start charging their real prices.

    whatever you do, please don't try AT&T, I have spent at least 80 hours on the phone with that company in the past 8 years.  And the coverage isn't as good as Straight Talk either....I'm paying $200.00 for 2 cell phones and that is ridiculous.  Especially when 1/2 of the year I am in an area that they do not have tower coverage.
