Visible would cost you $125 for 5 lines.

Agreed, but T-Mobile used to be.

I'm the same way, but instead of spending my extra money on cell phone service, I take it out to the front yard every month and burn it in front of my neighbors so they can see how well off I am.

Visible for almost 2 years, $25 a month unlimited. No issues.

Visible runs specials, $20 a month unlimited.

I'm not going back to Verizon.

I’ve been using Visible for several months now. $29 per month. Runs on Verizon’s network. I’ve had no issues whatsoever.


Same, for almost two years and works great. $30/mo. and that includes cellular service for my Apple Watch.

Give me some discount plans with unlimited, or at least 50GB of HIGH SPEED data.

My current carrier has "unlimited data," but only 25GB of high speed, after high speed data is gone, the phone is on good for calls and short texts.

I pay $216 a month for Verizon for two phone lines, watch, and iPad. I’m so tired of the wizard shite with the trade in and credits it makes my head hurt.

I can never understand the trade in credit shite and would rather buy my phone outright and get a credit for my phone but they wouldn’t let me do it last time.

Switched to Consumer Cellular about six months ago. On the AARP price of $55 for two lines all unlimited and must say great so far. Their customer support is fantastic and is all US based. Saving about $60 a month so yep, like the commercial says, save about $600 a year.

My concern was the T-Mobile coverage, but my buddy Tommy says they don't suck anymore.

But he's getting back with his slutty ex-wife so his judgment is questionable. She does have some tig ol bitties, so there's that.

Visible for about 5 years, $25 a month per phone, never had a single issue, why pay any more?

I left my discount carrier. When the traffic is heavy, the majors that own the equipment put their customers first. Now my signal is strong and uninterrupted.

Was paying the same price with PT, but when I had to re-boot my debit card cause of some un-authorized usage got my bill down to 33.00 with em. unlimited. Give em a call and see where your usage is.
