The switch was a bit of a pain. Mine took a few days to port.
We went to Europe and it was fantastic that the phone was working without having to enroll in an international plan.
I didn't realize the phone was working during the flight- even on airplane mode. I thought I was connected on United's free messaging only (which requires you to be in airplane mode) but CNN was working! I am not sure if that is dependent on the plane because it wasn't working on our return flight.
So far, 3 out of 4 of the family are satisfied with the service.
Our high schooler is not.. apparently there is hardly any service inside the high school building. I did experience this myself during a school event.
So, I am not sure what to do with that- I definitely do not want my kid to not have coverage AT school.
What? No cell coverage while in school is a feature not a bug. Sure if they have a lockdown or school shooting I guess that’s a worry, but realistically the risk is distraction from school and interfere with studies which that allays.
This isn't a feature.
My kid did warn me that Verizon works best in his school.building. i didn't believe it until.I.was in the building last week and neither my text nor voice call would even work. I've Been in that sane building with vetizon before and it worked fine.
Today, kid said he was able to receive texts but not send texts.
