[QUOTE=toddao;1822723]I'm considering a switch from Verizon to Consumer Cellular to save a little money. I currently pay about $130/mo (including taxes and fees) for two phones. It appears I can switch to CS for about $50 - $60 with 10GB of data. Consumer Reports rates them #1.

If you are using Consumer Cellular, how do you like it? Data speed, customer service, voice/text response time, etc.

I was considering CC and didn't get one negative comment from anyone I talked to personally who used the service, including relatives. However, this may not apply to you, but since I was a Comcast customer, friends convinced me I had nothing to loose by trying their free cell service. Of course it's not actually "free", most tell me I could find a cheaper option as a TV supplier, but, while I don't like the bill, I do like the (relative) dependability Comcast has provided for TV and internet. So, I consider their free cell service a real bargain. The two phones, with unlimited talk & text, and some limits to data which has had no effect on us since the phones do have the advantage of automatically connecting to all Xfinity hot-spots (which are literally everywhere in the USA on every corner), so two phones add at most, $11 a month for both, not each, and many months no charge at all. At one time you had to have an Apple phone, no longer, we have Samsung.
