Default Sprint wireless

Anybody living in TV use Sprint for their cell service? Is the reception quality good in the area? We are getting ready to change and Sprint is quite a bet less than AT&T and Verizon.

I have Sprint and live south of 466A. The service has been very good. However, Comcast is going to be offering a new cell phone service within the next few weeks, which will use the Verizon network, and, if you are a triple play Comcast customer, you will be able to get unlimited data for about $45 per month. I am considering switching to the Comcast service.

Sprint is less because you get less. I would never get sprint. Dropped calls, terrible customer service!

Why not consider Cricket Wireless - uses AT&T towers. Talk to the folks at their store in LaPlaza Grande next to Spanish Springs. Taxes and fees included in monthly cost! Hubs and I use it with no probs between Maine and FL.

Get 5 close friends or family members together and get 5 cricket lines for $100 total. That's $20 each tax included. Great coverage.

We have been here 4 years and use our Sprint cell phones all over the Villages and have never lost a call or had bad service.

I think some of the people citing bad things about Sprint don't have or never had Sprint in the Villages. They have great plans and unlimited data.
