Does anyone remember back in the day when there were cheap Prim-co cell phones? I remember because that was my very first mobile phone ever!! But then here came all the new technology and all these high tech cell phones and wireless providers came about. Sprint, Nextel, T-Mobile, Verizon, At&T...Well, I ended up going with Sprint. I stayed with Sprint up until about...a week ago. They had good service and mostly they had the hottest phones! They really had me with the palm Treo. I had the 650 then moved up to 700, then to 800...upgrade after up grade. But, after about 5 or more years of being with them I realized that I was paying waaay too much for a cell phone bill! I'm talking over $100 a month! I changed plan after plan to keep from going over on my minutes. Always got my service interrupted because I exceeded my spending limit. Went through horrible customer service. I put up with it because I didn't want to break my contract and I loved having the palm treo because I could text message with the full keypad, and I could use the Internet where ever I went. Not to mention they were the in style phones and I wanted a nice phone like everyone else! Then I started realizing that what I thought was important, was not that important to be struggling with paying my phone bill.

I had been wanting to change cell phone companies for a while now but never did, until about a week or s ago. My mom used to be with Sprint and then went to Cricket Mobile. Her bill is $40 a month! I have a friend who had been with Boost Mobile for a while. He has two cell phones and pays $100 a month, which I was paying that for one phone with Sprint! So it sparked me to go ahead and change my wireless provider to Boost Mobile.I was skeptical, though, because you hear so many things, good and bad, about these little phone companies. How calls are lost. The service wont work if you go out of town, etc. And that may be true. But I have lost quite a few phone calls with Sprint also..I don't travel right now so Im not too concerned about it not working out of town. The main thing I wanted to do was have a cheaper bill, and still have a full keypad for fast texting. Not to mention good service and unlimited minutes, web use, and texting. Well I got that PLUS I get to use the walkie-talkie feature on my new Boost Mobile phone! I paid all together $180 to start this service. $50 a month Unlimited Everything Plan and $130 on a Motorola walkie-talkie phone with a full keypad! I say that's not bad at all! This is not to down Sprint, I was with them for quite a while, but in today's times some expenses have to be cut if possible. That was an expense that I was able to cut in half. It hasn't been that long but so far I am enjoying my Boost phone and I am so happy about having a $50 bill every month, and not have to worry about overage fees! I suggest to any one that is in need of a cheaper cell phone bill to give Boost Mobile a try...
