Alternative cellular services
As many of you know the big 3 mobile phone services (AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile) are looped in with DEI and censorship. I know for fact that Verizon sponsors the ADL.
There's a few networks I been considering, Patriot Mobile, Puretalk and US Mobile.
I want feedback from everyone that has switched to other services. What are the costs, how is the coverage? thank you

Re: Alternative cellular services
Your need to understand that the smaller cell providers you listed are only buying and then reselling their services from one of the big three which actually carry the calls over their networks.

Re: Alternative cellular services
These carriers are MVNOs. For instance, Tello resells T-Mobile and is significantly more affordable.

Re: Alternative cellular services
I have USMobile. pay between $10 -$17 mo for unlimited talk and text and 2Gb data. I don't see the point of mobile data other than a quick looking up a phone number or something. But sometimes I need a hotspot for work while I'm out and about. Our total phone bill for 3 phones is under $40 / mo.RosyPosy wrote: ↑September 10th, 2024, 7:42 am As many of you know the big 3 mobile phone services (AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile) are looped in with DEI and censorship.

they use T-Mobile's network and I think they've recently added options for AT&T and Verizon. it's called "a super carrier", I think.
Look at Redpocket as well.

Re: Alternative cellular services
Boost Mobile uses the networks of AT&T, T-Mobile, and Dish Wireless to provide wireless services. Boost Mobile is a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO), which means it doesn't have its own cellular network, but instead uses other providers' networks.

GCI has cellular service where others have none.
