I switched from Sprint to AT&T last year. I get much better reception everywhere now, even compared to T-Mobile. AT&T isn't fast but it always works everywhere.

Spirit was fine while it lasted. Although I definitely won't miss them.

    I have no positive feelings for Sprint. I hated them.

    My Sprint phones
    Sanyo SCP-5500 (Feb 2004 - Feb 2006)
    LG G5 (Feb 2017 - Mar 2017)

    The reason I don't have any fond memories of them was their network was terrible. Reception would get pretty bad when I drive to a certain area, LTE would slow down, and I would get hidden fees onto my bill. It's also a hassle when you wanted to use your phone on a different carrier because so many incompatible band issues.

    I moved to T-Mobile in March 2017 and never looked back since. I don't see myself moving away from them. I tried Verizon briefly and it seems their network has gotten worse. They used to be the best to me. I dug CDMA because I could get signal in office buildings. Verizon also never has the best pricing. I miss my T-Mobile $50 prepaid plan. Will get it back next year once the Razr 5G is paid off in Sept 2023.

                Just look at how ended gas and Petrol prices from Russia.
                They asking more than 2 eur per litre here in Slovakia.

                        Goodbye Sprint, it was nice knowing you.

                        Usualy the smaller carriers gives better deals and bonnuses compared to large ons.
                        For exaple Tesco mobile here by Tesco that food network gives 3 times of what you buy credit.
                        For example if you top up for 10 you get 30 for calls, messages and data.

                            Lots of good memories working for Sprint back in the day, my monthly bonus checks used to be more than my buddies salaries, boy that was a sweet gig while it lasted. RIP Sprint!

                              Hopefully they decontaminate the FAIL from the towers before reusing them. My experience with Sprint was constantly calling them about dead towers and my dead Galaxy S2, and them laughing it off because I had a contract and a carrier-locked phone.
