Coverage, as in the only thing that works in my remote area, is why I've been with them for 10 years...

But I've been doing some experimenting... You may not be as stuck as you think!

PM me, and whatever we do, let's NOT talk about this openly on the forum.

you're very welcome... perhaps this will get me into the Trusted Cool Kids Club, if you deem it valuable help? :-) Again, thanks for all you do! I love this forum...

Hi Julie.... just tried to PM you but it shows my message being stuck in the "outbox" for some reason and not sent. Just a heads up in case you don't see it. Thanks!

Yes! There's a lot of that going around lately... :-) I created a post to address this. Catwoman answered me and told me that the messages are actually sent, but until the recipient reads them they will show in your out-box... :-) I did see yours and I did just respond to you

Yes, most of them do, but results have been disappointing... Straight Talk is an example. They use Verizon towers (as evidenced by the fact that I can get a signal at home, and the only tower near me is a Verizon tower), however they are data throttled to approx 5Mbps down / 2.5-3 Mbps upload. Absolutely dismal. Also, when you go with any of those mvno's you mostly lose things like wifi calling, video calling from the call screen (a big one for me) and visual voicemail. T-Mobile will send me a signal booster for the home, but as soon as I leave I have no signal... AT&T I'm trying out this week, but initial testing has pretty lousy data speeds, too. But I'm still trying others, because I really want to leave Verizon! :evil:

If it wasn't for the throttling of data, it would make leaving verizon too easy.
