    going into training for CDL end of August, and my contract is up and I want to switch to prepaid and save if it makes sense. Any recommendations?

    It's not the cheapest but Alltel straight talk. I tried all of them and t mobile is ok but for the best coverage straight talk auto fill for at just over $40 a month for 5 gig high speed. I go with the $55 for 10 gig.

    I think it depends on the area you'll be in...I dropped my verizon plan when I moved to S.TX from North Dakota & chose an A T & T prepaid purely as a trial thing to see if I got better service then verizon & I did & my service was good enough I decided not to be bound by another contract & stayed prepaid now almost 4 yrs & I love it my bill is always the same every month unlike a contract where EVERY months I was calling trying to find out what certain charges were for uggg I hated it..I now actually have AT&T & Verizon prepaid & use which ever is catching signal

    Had the verizon $30 pre-paid flip phone. Worked surprisingly well in the western 11.
    Had to change cause I needed access to google maps since then company GPS was sometimes not good.
    Have the $45 pre-paid straight talk. Works well.
    Good luck.

    I've always had Alltel until Verizon bought them then it went down the drain.

    I'm testing cricket and I find it to be very good. Specifically because it also works in canada.
