Oh no, he's right. Sprint does have lousy coverage in LA. If you look at the map, the 3G is spotty at best. I'm sure the map was offered to him when he signed up, so it's his own fault for not looking at it. But you're just flat out lying with your 100k in a 'major metro area'.

Actually I am not but that is OK that you don't believe me as I am more than happy with my current provider now. I wish I would have saved some of the speed tests from the phone as they were very amusing to look at.
And just curious why would I lie about the speeds that I was getting? I have nothing to gain out of it. I have no hard feelings from the time I was on Sprint as I did have fun with the devices that I had. The only thing they did wrong to me was take away my corporate discount on phones 3, 4 and 5. I was not mad about it as they let me out of my contract after 6 months due to this change.
I also will be the first to say that if I had to live with AT&T's edge network, I would be very disappointed with the service. I am lucky and rarely travel out of the 3G coverage and onto the Edge network.

Nope, I signed up online. And, like an idjit, I assumed that Sprint was like Verizon, if you had good voice, you had good data. Boy did I ever cock that up! Oh, the map looks all green and all....but you try to get decent speed...LOL

Just got this added to my family unlimited texting plan. I'm surprised they let it be added to my grandfathered voice package (the two big drawbacks of it are the lack of free att mobile to att mobile minutes and that roaming isn't free and this takes care of one). The rep had to ask me to wait several times, but no great difficulties in getting this done. We have a ton of rollover minutes anyway, but it's still nice to have this be unlimited. If I had to guess I'd say this will cover 85-90% of the calls we make.
Thanks for the heads up!
So, when you look Apples to Apples, with Sprint raising the prices, are they catching up with the other providers prices, or have they passed them, I know what I pay and have EVERYTHING as far as I know.
I apparently spoke too soon this morning. Rather than adding unlimited mobile to universal mobile to my text plan, the ATT rep just managed to remove all texting from all the phones on the account. (so all sent/received texts lost for the day) I call back and am told that my grandfathered package does not qualify. This is what I expected when I called in this morning, so not a surprise. But, since I specifically asked during the call this am and was told that would not be a problem it left me ticked off. Especially the part about removing existing service. Long story short, you have to have one of their current plans to get in on this.
