We used the Verizon network since cell service originally began (until last year.)
Even with the retired employee discount, it was just too expensive.

North of Rt. 44 all the way to New England, with the exception of between some mountains a few times, Consumer Cellular is working great for us at about 60% of the cost.
The big four network providers are Sprint, AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon. There are lots of companies that provide cell phone plans, but most, if not all of them use one of the 4 network providers to deliver service. I think the most popular service that uses the Verizon network is Straight Talk sold by Walmart. There is also Total Wireless. I use Xfinity Mobile and have been paying only 12 dollars per month because I limit my mobile data use to less than 1 GB per month. But, I do have unlimited talk and text, which uses no mobile data. You can also get an unlimited plan for about 45 dollars per month or pay 12 dollars per GB per month. However, Xfinity Mobile requires you to have internet service with Xfinity.
