    How has Sprint service been lately for voice and data?
    I am thinking about their latest promo where they will give me the same plan as I have with Verizon for half price.

    But if service sucks I rather stay with VZW and pay more.

    Of course Sprints sucks. Everything about Sprint sucks. Their voice, data, customer service, ect... How else do you think Tmobile surpassed them?

    You can get Verizon, ATT and Tmobile prepaid plans very cheap.

    That said, there are plenty of areas where Sprint works well. Its hit and miss.

    Sprint sucks. I have Sprint and regret it. Their "LTE" speeds are slower than other carriers' 3G speeds. Don't even get me started on their 3G speeds and spotty coverage.

    I have heard of people getting good speeds in good coverage areas with Sprint, but you have to be where they have Spark service with a Spark smartphone.

    It looks like my home and work address is in the Spark Turbo coverage area

    No it is not worth it. There is a reason why they're offering such a deal and bashing the competition. They suck, they know it, they need money to stay a float.

    Got off Sprint for ATT a couple months ago. I feel like I've stepped out of the dark ages.

    Will never go back to Sprint. They gave me a 600 dollar monthly bill a few years ago and refused to correct the issue. att has been so much better........

    Another vote for no. I had Sprint, but switched to Verizon because of the crappy signals I was getting. Verizon is light years ahead. It's worth the extra money.

    Sprint is a ****ing joke of a network. You're better off with Cricket.

    No seriously, you are. Cricket no longer operates on CDMA, and uses AT&T towers since they are owned by them now.
