Cellular Service

Cellular service is the new home phone, pay phone, and calling card. They are easy to find, use, buy, and carry, and with so many providers offering a multitude of plans and options, over 50% of Americans own one or more today. Many of us are now shopping for high-quality, reliable cellular service, either as a new customer, an upgrading customer, or those of us who have been turned down for service because of credit mistakes. Unfortunately, choosing the right plan can be as hard as buying a new car. How can you cut through the hype to get the best deal?

  • Know what cellular service is available in your area
  • What cellular phones are popular and why? Price or reliability?
  • Which cellular service covers the most area for your use?
  • If I can’t afford one, what then? Most plans offer a FREE phone and some very affordable monthly plans, prepaid wireless plans with NO credit check, and if you want to keep in touch for just pennies, try a calling card.
How to Buy a Cell Phone by Ray StrackbeinMisinformation—how can anyone possibly figure it all out? I have (pretty much), and it took me decades. I frequently visit websites and phone stores in search of better service. I listen to customers ask questions, and the salespeople answer with misinformation. Misinformation about cellphones is profound. Some misinformation is deliberate, but most is because cellphone technology is evolving so rapidly.”
