I have been with sprint for about 5 years now and am really at a crossroad. About a month or two ago I strongly considered going to vzw but decided to wait. Well my contract is now up w/sprint and I have a awesone GS3 (bought off con) which is pretty much useless because of the sprint network vision project and the dismal 3g network. I understand things take time but I went from pretty good service to bottom of the barrel. Constant daily dropped calls, sms text failures, mms failures, literally I would have to text 8-10 times for a successful text in some areas, horrid 3g speeds, waiting 3-5 mins for a page or fb to open or getting a network communication error msg and the page just closing :banghead:
To add insult to injury my wife has a GS3 on vzw and in the house avgs 20-25 mbps dwn on 4g and 800-1100kbps dwn on 3g which simply embarrasses sprint and me. We were out the other night trying to find a local rest and my phone wouldnt even open yelp, just kept loading and loading. Well here is my dilema. I can join her on vzw, be added to her share plan which would cost total of 180$$ for 2 lines, unl mins & txts and 6 gigs of data to split. Considering she uses about 2 gigs a mnth and I average about 3 this could work. My bill on sprint now is about 70 w/disc.
Yes I would be giving up unl data but whats the point if I cant use it when and where I need it, and Im not that heavy a user. Is it worth staying with sprint continue waiting knowing this will continue for several more months and when they deploy the 4g in my area (DC Metro) the 4g may not be as good as vzw/att because of the spectrum issue and spectrum its on, or say my goodbyes, leave now and switch?? And then there is the issue of what I would do what my phone ugh!
