AT&T Vs. Verizon
Posted: Wed May 27, 2009 10:36 pm
So which one should I go for? For cost measures, the minutes and such are low (which is why I won't be accepting any higher offers.) If you all can find something with similar specs for a lower price, I'll consider this as well. I also want to be able to text/multimedia message lots, as well as make and answer calls WITHOUT having to pay $3/day for making/answering calls, even ONCE per day, thank you Verizon prepaid. 
As of this posting, I go through at least two $30 prepaid VZW cards every month (give or take), and since all I do is basically text on it (since multimedia messages are 50 cents to send/receive, and again, calls are $3/day to make/receive,) I send and receive about 750 texts a month, at least. The offers are as follows:
AT&T. 450 daytime mins w/ 5k nights/wiikend mins, unlimited mobile-to-mobile and texting, as well as rollover mins, all for $59.99. My mom got a promotion in the mail today for two phones when you open a new account with them, however IIRC you'd have to get a family plan, I'd like to see if you can get a single plan. Bad news is, it'd be in her name.
OR:
Verizon. 450 daytime mins w/ unlimited nights/wiikends/mobile-to-mobile/texting for $59.99. By doing this, I can keep my present phone (which as I've stated before it's a Verizon, so..), not to mention I should be able to put this one in my name.
I should also mention that I live near cincinnati, ohio and would like something that can go nationwide.
thoughts, comments, etc?
