I know this question has been asked a million times so I am going to make it a million and one. I currently have cricket. I like the phone service over all for the price but traveling with a cricket phone is pretty much unreliable. I went to Arkansas last year where I was supposed to have coverage and my phone didn't work. Then It would let me call other carriers but not cricket (my husband was at home and he had a cricket phone as well.) I had to use my sisters phone the whole time. Very annoying. I have been really considering switching to boost before summer hits because I have to go out of town and I need a phone that works anywhere. How do you like Boost Mobile. Would you recommend it. I am not worried about if you feel their phones are not that up to date all I really do is talk and text anyway. I am worried about the actual coverage and quality. Thanks!
