I just switched to Mint Mobile. $15/mo and that price continues if you pay by the year. I get 4-5 bars on my phone where I used to only get 1-2 bars with Straight Talk who uses Verizon towers. You can bring your own phone (if compatible & unlocked) and keep your old phone number. I was able to do all of that; keep the same phone & the same phone number. They have really great customer service that help with the changeover.
