Default I've decided to leave Sprint for Verizon...any reason why I shouldn't?

on Sunday, I'm planning on heading to the VZ store and port over my Sprint to take advantage of the unlimited data before they go to tier-data on July 7th...I've been wanting to switch over to VZ for awhile now because of the better reception and cellular quality, but I've just been waiting for them to release a new Blackberry....in any case, I don't care about the difference in the prices for the plans between the 2 companies (if anything they're about the same), I just want better service and I just hated being somewhere with my friends with VZ, while they had full bars, I had to step outside to barely catch a signal...I don't see them getting better than VZ anytime soon, thus I will be jumping ship...unless if there's something I don't know about in the near future...?.?.?

sprint gives you better rates esp with smart phones and will stay unlimited. Unless the coverage in your area is bad, sprint will be cheaper

Sprint works fine for most people....except on the forums where people are uber geeks and cell hop carriers to whoever is the flavor of the month, and right now that's Verizon with their 30megs down empty LTE pipes, but once that fills up and Verizon LTE starts slowing down, and people are tired of being wallet raped, then Sprint will look like heaven again...

Sprint was really garbage like most of the Verizon Troll claim it is, Sprint wouldn't be adding subs and its churn rate would'nt be coming down..and it would have the same satisfaction rates of customers as Verizon.

Take those Verizon Cheerleaders with a grain of salt

Its all cyclical....choose what works for you.

Yep otherwise lube up with a lot of KY jelly and spread those cheeks because Verizon is ready to do a serious Wallet Rape.

Thank GOD for Sprint

Sprint works very well where I live and the number one reason I am staying with them is because of my 25% employer discount I get and my bill runs $58.21 with tax every month... No other provider can match that for me.. Except if I get a bb on prepaid that will be the only way.. So sprint has my buisness as long as I have my discount.. Price is number one for me... Then plan and coverage!

I dont think You would be saying price first IF you were averaging 2-4 dropped calls a day. I still get 25% through att as did i with sprint. With Sprints 10.00 dollar smart phone fee its almost a wash.

I have metro pcs which is hooked up with verizon towers. Before this I had verizon a [b][/b][b][/b][b][/b][b][/b]ty free phone but if I could afford a blackberry with verizon I would do it in heart beat!!! With verizon I had service in sullivan county in middle woods. I love verizon and swear its the best phone company by far. They have great service, great customer service!! You will not be sorry, I had att hated it as well.
