The #Trump administration’s plan to create a fourth #wirelesscarrier through #Dish Network’s acquisition of #BoostMobile and spectrum from T-Mobile was doomed to fail.

Question for everyone with regards to mobile carriers, specifically Spectrum.

Anyone out there using Spectrum Mobile as their mobile carrier of choice?

I'm currently using AT&T but I'm just wanting to know how the service is with Spectrum compared to the major carriers such as AT&T and Verizon.

I know Spectrum uses Verizon towers which isn't necessarily a bad thing but just wondering how things are you in area if you use Spectrum.

Is your plan with Spectrum cheaper than it was with a major carrier?

Are you on the Unlimited plan or the Unlimited Plus plan with Spectrum?

The more information you can provide, the better. I'd really like first hand knowledge as much as possible.
