    I'm thinking of getting out of my Metro POS and getting with them.
    They have the new unlimited plan for Flat rate $50
    I'd like some reviews and feedback so i can decide.
    Thanks

    go with page Plus Prepaid.

    Page Plus uses the Verizon Network and is only 39.99 a month for unlimited min and texts and 20 MB of data a month which is plenty for picture messages and light browsing.

    if you have ever seen a coverage map of Verizons network it blows Boost/nextels coverage out of the water as well as Metro PCS

    unless you are looking for the 2 way walkie talkie specifically then page plus is the way to go




    also you can use any verizon phone with Page plus


    my brother has a store in lilburn at the Kroger shopping enter at intersection of lawrenceville hwy and beaver ruin/arcado if you are anywhere near that area stop by and check it out.


    every Boost customer he has had has converted over to page plus (you can port your number to page plus as well) and had no complaints

    sounds nice but i'm a heavy user of the internet so that wouldn't help me if i have to pay as i use the web on the phone. I love the unlimited web.

    ok i may just call them cause i googled it and some claim you have to start with a boost cdma for which is only 3 phones UGH!. Then maybe go with a sprint cdma phone for better features.

    Im w/ Boost, and they do have that 50.00 unlimited texting and calling nationwide. Metro services are probably not as good as Boost and Boosts phone's are better. I have a flip phone w/ walkie talkie access and the loudest ring tones possible. I mean people can hear my tones in the clubs w/ the loud music blasting due to the walkie talkie speakers lol.

    Boost is good. The network is the same as nextels, which isn't amazing, but it is nationwide..
