My phone contract is up with Sprint, I went to store and it is outrageous! Question is of the prepaid carriers Boost, metro pcs and cricket which one is best in your area, example does any work at Eldora, oakshade, atomic, Portsmouth, Florence. looking for input, thanks in advance!

I use a verizon pre paid... $45/month unlimited talk/text but only 4gigs of data and that's if you have auto pay. That Wally World deal is hard to beat.

I'm on Boost. It is owned by Sprint and uses their network. It was pretty bad at Eldora though.

Walmart has been a GREAT deal for me. Currently at 5 gig per month for 48$ but going to bump it up to the 10 gig for 55$ per month...I have had just a couple of coverage issues but nothing worth the big dollar 2 year contract BS.

I'm on Verizon and I had no trouble at Eldora anytime i tried to use it. A guy I was with had Sprint and I never could get him on the phone and it would take him forever to get out when he tried to call out.

Track phone, $19.99 for 60 minutes and 90 days. No contract, good coverage, the minutes roll over and I currently have some 900 minutes built up which shows how much I use the darn thing.

I've been on straight talk for probably close to 10yrs. Make sure you get Verizon coverage phone or if do the byop, Verizon Sim card. From here to southern point of Texas and California it worked excellent. One large dead spot is west of fort Wayne. You'll have 4g and internet will work as will text but roaming for calling. Eldora is tough spot no matter carrier but Florence no problems as well Attica, Fremontz and the shade. I've heard the Walmart deal works same and little cheaper as well. Most all our friends have switched to straight talk after seeing our use and price. Keep in mind you can pay think 500 for whole year service and essentially paying for only 11 months but getting 12. Downside is customer service being all foreigners but over the years they've gotten much better

The boys are right. Had Verizon and thought the grass was greener and switched to at@t for this big a$s iPhone 6plus and it was a mistake. Verizon had 2 bars at Tyler county of that tells you anything! Can't go wrong with Verizon

Verizon is the way to go in the Midwest. Eldora signal was great for the World 100.
