harvardvark Posted November 17 Report Share Posted November 17 My last Nextel Bill was like $200 when I'm on a $50 plan. Not to mention I'm not too fond of the phones or service. I'm thinking of switching. Any suggestions on a reasonable provider? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're obviously going way over your minutes. They've got one right now for $60 that has 1000 peak, and free off peak. I'm assuming you have about 500 peak minutes. If your bill was $200, then you probably went over by 350-400 minutes, so if that's all corect spending $10 more a month should put you in the clear.

harvardvark Posted November 17 Author Report Share Posted November 17 Yea I'm not necessarily blaming Nextel for the whopping bill but I'm not happy with the service either. Its cool with the 2-way but I dont know too many people with that either. Verizon looks pretty good and their phones are legit.

Not exactly, the phone does GPS, and it can tell people where you are if you pay for and turn on the feature. It's not really for your everyday consumer, it's more for companies that have a fleet of trucks that they need to keep track of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
