Just like the writer before me, Ive had nothing but great success with Metro PCS!! I currently reside in Atlanta GA and just like the previous writer, I found it very hard to get a cell phone. Apparently, the $2000 that was sitting on my credit report was entirely too much for cell phone providers to tolerate! I got Metro PCS with only $149.99 down and included my first months service and and a Sony Ericsson phone! The first thing I noticed was how great my phone was! It had excellent options and total clarity! Secondly, because Metro PCS charges you one flat fee no matter how long when you the phone, I didnt have to worry about when I picked up the phone to talk to anyone! Meanwhile, everyone else either had to rush off of the phone during peak hours or wait until after peak time to use theirs! Until you try Metro PCS you have no idea about how much freedom you will feel with this cell phone service! I didnt even realize that I was being held captive until I was able to just call!
Ironically, even though I love Metro PCS, I am now heartbroken! My company just relocated me to Phoenix AZ and come to find out Metro PCS is only in Florida and Georgia at this time! Therefore, I will somehow have to find a service thats just as good until Metro PCS is more widely available! But they have definitely started something that is tremendous and if they keep at it, Sprint, AT&T and all of those other companies will have to really rethink their marketing and product strategy!!!!
