    I have Sprint unlimited on my phone
    but also have a Verizon jetpack because I want internet for my laptop and Verizon gets signal nearly everywhere but it's expensive though.

    I thought about changing carriers but when I signed up with ATT 14 years ago my friend was working for them and put a 25% discount every month on my account. I'm only paying $75 a month for unlimited data and text and 450 minutes a month talk time. She is no longer with ATT. If I switch carriers I will lose this sweet deal.

    I pay $60 for unlimited data talk and text with Sprint.. you don't have much of a "sweat deal" lol.

    MetroPCS is unlimited everything including 4g LTE for $40 taxes included, I use to have that but their service was crap all over the country as I travel.

    Verizon with 30G, which my wife and I max out or close to max out each month. My wife watches a LOT of videos at home (we don't have separate hard wired internet). I watch SOME videos and use a fair amount of data with weather apps, Google maps, etc. while on the road.

    When I was otr I used verizon for my data needs. My bill was very expensive but it was my phone, Internet and TV so it was worth it to me.

    ATT totally suck in my opinion. Never had Sprint. Can't go wrong with verizon.
