The first thing I heard about Metro PCS was that it’s reception really sucked. I don’t know about other parts of the U.S., but the Bay Area is pretty good. In the East Bay service is great and in the city its also good. On top of that it’s unlimited, which is the best part of the plan. If you want early termination, there is also no fee. The phone are cool, the service is good, and the plans are great. You can call all over Northern California, and if you don’t travel much, it’s a perfect plan for you. I’m pretty satisfied with my purchase.
