Thinking of moving from Sprint to Verizon...

Been with Sprint since 1993, and obviously don't like change. But, I'm seriously considering moving to Verizon with our 4 lines.

Some reasons for the switch...
- We've had to use an Airave for several years now as the signal near home is terrible. We're getting it free, but lately it needs rebooting on a regular basis (already replaced one unit).
- If we roam domestically, we're limited to 300MB per line of data per billing period, which gets used quickly if you aren't careful and have no Wifi available. I don't think that is an issue with Verizon from what they tell me...
- Can't use Voice and Data at the same time since the S5, I think. I use my phone (currently the S7) for work, and having that ability again would be a plus.

Some reasons to stay put...
- My S7 is leased, and I've got 18 payments to go. I really thought I put the phone on the installment plan originally. And another 2 of the 4 lines have termination fees. All but about $250 of the Sprint charges would be covered by Verizon's payments.
- We're on an unlimited data plan. Although the heavy users haven't yet exceeded 6GB in a billing period, YET.
- If we switch, I'd have to replace my S7 and one of the iPhones, always a hassle.

What to do??
 
I have been with Verizon for 16 years excluding one year with Cingular (ATT) Customer service has always been top notch and IMHO their coverage works for me 98% of the places I have traveled in the US. However, I don't like dealing with their pushy salesman in the stores. I always order online or over the phone.
 
I have been with Verizon for the last 10 years, leaving once to give Project Fi a try. I was quickly back with Big Red. You pay more, but in my area (NJ), there is nothing that comes close as far as coverage goes.
