[QUOTE="Rut2much, post: 449287, member: 413"] Sprint and Verizon run off cdma technology which is pretty outdated and non-global like GSM technology is (at&t & t-mobile and pretty much the rest of the world are all gsm). All these smaller companies have lease agreements with the big 4 to use their network/towers. Buy unlocked phones and use the smaller companies if you don't wana pay out of your ass every month. Verizon has always worked in nodak because theyve been here for ages and could roam off alltel towers pre 2011 before alltel got purchased by AT&T and switched all those towers over to GSM. Now at&t and tmobile have quickly caught up since. Customers that just simply switched carriers before doing their homework to save money were a nightmare if they couldn't get service, 95% of time in rural areas. Ask to Test a loner phone out or ask around before taking that plunge, but all carriers have come a long damn ways in the last 10-15 years! Putting phone installments/payments on a plan along with 17% taxes/fees and the insurance they hold a gun to your head at time of purchase is straight up hwy robbery. Ask me how I know. [/QUOTE]
