    Why do MMS messages take days to receive? (H20 Wireless)

    My plan is with H2O and it takes anywhere from 1-7 days to receive group MMS messages. I use chomp for sms/mms. Most of my friends have iPhone's so I wonder if it has anything to do with iMessage? Maybe there's a way to get MMS messages to work better through wifi? What's App group texts are...

    No-contract plans in the U.S. for your Nexus 5

    H20 Wireless just announced a $30/month unlimited talk/text, 500 mb plan. Not sure how reliable they are, but willing to consider a test run.

    Nexus 5 on MetroPCS

    I made the switch to metropcs from Verizon. So far it's been good. I live in NYC and the calls sound really good, and texting works normally.

    I wonder if Amazon will sell it at the same price as the Play store?

    Subsidizing your N5

    Awesome, thanks for clarifying. I'm debating between MetroPCS (40/month) and GoPhone (60/month..less with discounted refills). GoPhone sounds like a solid deal, although it's quite possible that ATT throttles data for gophone during peak hours in big cities.

    Subsidizing your N5

    GoPhone sounds like a great deal. So when you refill a Gophone account with a $100 refill on the $60/month plan, the remainder is credited to your account??
