So i see that for non-smartphones AT&T offers unlimited data and texting for 30 a month which is on top of the voice plan too. Isn't that almost the same thing as Verizon who used to offer the connect plan to customers? Seems about the same to me. Are AT&Ts plans perhaps some way cheaper than Verizon??

AT&T data plans for *NON* smart phone is cheaper than smart phone

AT&T
- 450 Talk, Text, Internet $70 DUMB phone
- 450 Talk, Text, Internet $90 SMART phone

Verizon
- 450 Talk, Text, Internet $90 DUMB phone
- 450 Talk, Text, Internet $90 SMART phone

Other than Roll over minutes, AT&T is *CHEAPER* for unlimited data on dumb-phones.

For phones without data, AT&T and Verizon are the same. For Smart-phones, AT&T and Verizon are the same.

For mid-range phones, AT&T and Verizon have different requirements and different prices for unlimited data.

Plus roll-over minutes, Talk & Internet at same time, and other minor differences as well.

As long as you are on a single plan. Once you go to a family plan, Verizon's unlimited data and text is much more.

For non-smart phones, AT&T is generally cheaper since thier unlimited plans for DUMB phones is $15/month without texting OR $30/month WITH texting ($10 after $20/month texting).

Family plans the gap widens because $10/$15 less per phone adds up.

For non-data phones, and for smart-phones, Verizon and AT&T are virtually identical... but for Mid-Range phones AT&T is normally cheaper, family OR single lines.

But with the A-list, that barely even matters anymore.

Has decent coverage... and free roaming on #1 network.

I've yet to have issues with Sprint Customer service personally. Either thru the business end via work, or personal end when I was a Sprint customer.

My personal experience, yours may vary.

That's because Sprint is terrible. We have tons of customers switching over every day because there's no service anywhere with Sprint- apparently. Their customer service is awful from what our switchers say.

For non-smart phones, AT&T offers unlimited data for $15/month... OR $10/month if included with $20/month texting.

Verizon is $30/month unlimited data for *ANY* phone. Not including texting.

So for unlimited data, Verizon will cost $15/month more (data vs data) or $20/month more (data+text vs data+text)... for mid-range phones.
