we were verizon customers - it didn't work here at all. now we're cingular/att customers and the service is about like flipping a coin. any suggestions? we're becoming more and more frustrated with this issue. we sometimes don't get messages for a week, if they come in at all. AAAGGGH!

Tracfone uses AT&T. You can't really count it.

Look at the sim card, If it DOES NOT have 3G on it then you need to call at&t and tell them you want to update your sim card, Have the old one ready when you call, they'll want the number off from it. They'll send you a new one in the mail shouldn't cost anything for updating the sim before your contract is up and will work much better.

Net10 is owned by Tracfone which uses AT&T and T-Mobiles network.

AT&T and T-Mobile both have contracts to allow each other to use each others networks with no charge to customers.

AT&T is your best choice now. They also just set up a new tower in Senath about a month ago. There isn't any dead spots now around here now.

Won't make a difference. We don't have 3G coverage here.

Daily Horoscope for December 22

Aries

Financial muddles are more than likely today so be careful if you're going shopping. You might be accidentally short-changed or there could be a misunderstanding about how much something costs. This isn't a good day to lend friends anything valuable in case they don't return it or they damage it in some way. Better safe than sorry.
