[QUOTE="skeeter, post: 62993, member: 439"] talk to people in your area. Find out what the better service is - not all phones work well with all towers. In our case, we have our cells through our local home phone service. NO CONTRACT - however, they have never raised the price of our service unless we change things. You can also get the "deal" on a new phone if yours is a year or more old. Our service is 4 phones - shared minutes: 2000 peak minutes 1000 mobile to mobile minutes unlimited other time minutes (after 9pm weeknights and all day Saturday and Sunday) unlimited text message (in or out) some amount of internet (never used it, so I don't know how much) No long distance and no roaming You can also call and stop coverage if the phone is lost, and you have up to 30 days to reinstate it WITH NO CHARGE if the phone is found (I know this from experience!). We all have Nokia phones of one type or another because we've found the work best in our area, and we've had coverage in other areas where no one else does. None of us have every had trouble with our phones. Our cost (without taxes) is $115 for this. With one away in the Navy (he's the one that uses most of those peak minutes!) it's definately worth it. We also have a deal because we have our local phone and broad band on the same bill (and I'm looking to cancel cable and also add satellite to this). [/QUOTE]
