I'm looking at switching from AT&T because I have terrible service with them at the house. I'd like to see if anyone is better. I think I can start with me and go right to JKB. Me. AT&T Motorola Tundra phone 0-1 bar. Signal is terrible. JKB.

"Forget pounds and ounces, I'm figuring displacement!" If we accept that: MBG(+)FGSF(=)HBG(F1) And we surmise that: BG(>)HBG(F1) while GSF(<)HBG(F1) Would it hold true that: HBG(F1)(+)AM500(x)q.d.(=)1.5lbGRWT? PB answer: It depends.

Although, it may take several calls and complaints to get it done. If you have multiple people who have the same problem, which you obviously do, you can use that as leverage to have them help...its obviously not just your phone.

Needless to say my phone went dead before 2 in the afternoon and had to be plugged in...It was constantly searching for a signal and flipping back and forth from nothing to 3G or LTE... After charging I switched it to airplane mode and just turned that off when I wanted to check for text or messages..

I save about $100 dollars a month compared to what I spent with Sprint. I have used my phone all over and have had very good results. My only criticism would be that their data is not near as fast as Sprint and I have nothing good to say about their customer service. They recruited from the absolute bottom of the barrel. It is well worth the savings.
