Cell Service

[sgtcoffey]

Has anyone switched from Verizon to Straight Talk (On the Verizon Network) and seen any service issues with just Cellular service. We would only be using it for phone, maps and probably some Facebook surfing? So tired of paying so much just for cell phones!!!! THXS

We have used Stright Talk for 10 years and love it, especially the price. Their customer service was an issue but has improved over the years.

We are always careful to get a phone using Verizon towers, much better than the At&T phones on our area. May be different for you.

As someone stated you cannot use ST phones to connect other devices as you can with some.

They will sometimes notify you if you go over 2g data in a month, but we have and it keeps working and no notice of speed slow down.

We use a hotspot for data on long trips. Have been using ST but looking at a Verizon HS for future.

For just phone service, it works just as well.
Data is limited by StraightTalk according to the plan you select.
'They DO NOT allow tethering your phone to other devices, for data sharing. (unless there is a recent change)

Have heard good things about straight talk, but what fits your needs is probably different from many others. Some are good just in local areas, some have various service depending on where you are, and if you travel much.
