educate yourself....

Guys, just pull em out and end the none sense.

I had AT&T for years and didn't really have any issues (at least not enough to switch). However now I have Verizon (because we could get a discount through gf job) and don't really have any issues with them either.

Yep.

Because if it's on the internet, it must be true.

I would take AT&T over Verizon any day.

I'm on the phone quite often and need to pull up an email, maps, etc. Especially when I'm on hold when I'm calling customer service for anything (insurance, TWC, whatever).

I'm not sure how T-Mobile works, but I haven't seen anyone with VRZ or Sprint being able to use data while calling (CMDA vs GSM right?)

Nope, no data while using voice. I thought this would be a huge issue for me, but honestly I don't ever really need it. Most of the stuff I need to look up while on a call is local stuff like emails, contacts etc.

However if I did have to look up stuff online I can see how that would be a big issue.

For my work, I tend to be on hold for a fair amount of time here and there… so it's great being able to go on IG, FB, Reddit, forums etc.

Couldn't do that with VRZ or Sprint.

I also tend to talk to my gf about where we should eat, so I'm on the phone and checking yelp at the same time. I used close to 10GB of data a month +2k mins so safe to say I'm on it enough where I would benefit from having data+calling work at the same time

I'm on Sprint and can easily talk, text, surf, social media etc at the same time no question. And it is truly unlimited. I have had Pandora and TuneIn radio running all day on many occasions. Never got throttled or overcharged.
