    cell phone service provider

    I am thinking of dumping АТ&Т. what provider do you use, phone, how much you pay for it and how do you like?

    I have Verizon service and a casio exilim. My only complaint is that the battery life isn't that great. Stick with the basic cell phone and your bills shouldn't be too high. I only use it for phone calls and SMS, but it also comes in handy for taking pics because my digital camera is broken.

    that the thing, i have an Iphone now, and am loving it, but service sucks and pricey. I heard good reviews on verizon and T-mobile.

    Iphones and smart phones are great if you can fork out $100+ per month for bills. The only problem with Verizon is that they sometimes suck with the math and make mistakes in the billing, so always check the balances and make sure you're paying the right amount.

    Isn't it prepaid service, though?

    American service providers apparently love to assrape their customers.

    Not prepaid, I have a contract and they send the bill every month.

    I agree judging for what I've seen... you guys get charged for everything, we don't get charged for receiving calls/sms or anything... I wouldn't be surprised they charge you for taking pictures with your phone lol.

    That's how it should be. My plan has unlimited SMS and 200 minutes/month (but if I go over that, my bills can get pretty spendy) My bills usually don't go over $40.

    I'm on Simyo, I got my phone in the UK though, so if it breaks I've got to fix it myself or send it to the UK, which is a pain.
