They also offer the samsung code which is a smartphone on the $50.00 a month plan. Their phone selection is limited, yes, but you can't beat their low monthly rates.

Coverage isn't as bad as others have stated. Although metropcs is better suited for an individual line rather then family plans.

Posting your cell phone number on an internet forum is probably not the smartest thing to do.

LOL, No I don't work for Metro PCS, just stating my experience which you find hard to believe. Wherever
you switch to don't go to Verizon Wireless unless you
want to get ripped off big time, good luck.

belive me when i say i have had all the major carriers at one time or another and they nickel and dime you intill you get tired of beening nickeled and dimed to death over the smallest thing..

the reason i went with metro pcs was over the whole smart phone set up i wanted ..i had AT&T with my iphone and they droped calls left and right and i was tired over beening nickeled and dime to death on the bill about anything and everything on the bill each month .. when the plan i had i would only use about 600.mins a month for a 900 min plan and i had the socalled early evening starting at 7.pm instead of 9pm and it got to be a hassle with them allmost every month fighting over the bill about calling after 7.pm

so i droped them and went with metro pcs and not looked back

Anybody who switches to Metro PCS will save hundreds of dollars in the first year of the switch alone. If you want to
save money it's a no brainer. I wish we had something like this for our cable TV service.....

After about 3 years of being a metro customer I have to say I am close to being on my way out. It's not a service issue for me, I am happy with the service and their plans are awesome. My beef is that they simply don't offer enough phones. The phone that I currently have, LG optimus M, is a buggy POS. None of their current roster of phones appeal to me. With the Iphone coming to Virgin by late this month and Boost by September I am looking at either of those or possibly Sprint or T-Mobile.
