We got on a family plan with our daughter’s family plus my son-in law’s brother and sister. We all split the cost. It’s pretty inexpensive that way. We started on T-Mobile but my daughter’s family got bad coverage where they lived (rural, North Carolina). So they switched to AT&T. We got terrible coverage where we live (suburban, North Carolina.) and my son-in-law got bad coverage at work. So we ended up at Verison. Which seems to work for everyone. Every time we switched providers—about every two years—I got a new iPhone free. I currently have a iPhone 7, which I will keep until we switch again. LOL! But I think we are sticking with Verison.
