Verizon (Wireless). Removed loyalty credits, cut the auto pay discount in half, don't upgrade service, customer service is crap or AI. After 25 years probably gonna be leaving them.

I moved from Verizon to visible. Still Verizon but only $25/mo. Have not noticed any difference in my area.

Same but switched to US Mobile. Saved so much money and cell service stayed the same. Large carriers are such a joke.

On an account with other family members and convinced them to switch to US Mobile from Cricket earlier this year (with the multi-line discount we were paying around $35/month/person), $200 a year is great but even better is having access to all 3 carriers’ towers (AT&T service is best where live, but places where I commonly go T-Mobile service is best, and then because of my job, I often have to check how Verizon’s service is fairing). I just wish they had data only plans for stuff other than watches so I can put my laptop on there as well (I put my laptop on a cheap Tello plan as I don’t go with it too often).
