Same thing going on for me, work for a phone company, just gotta be careful you don't send the dick pic accidentally on the wrong phone

5 yrs on No-Contract. 100 minutes prepay. piggybacking on WiFi at work and home. Not missing out on life when offline.

Why not use dual-sim phone? And everybody’s happy

I used to just connect my personal phone to my company phone's hot spot

Meh. I'd rather have limited data at any speed than unlimited data at 500Kbps

Prepaid services have better rates and unlimited data plans for much cheaper than contract carriers.

GuaranteedToBlowYourMind
We have cricket. No issues. Better reception than I had w/ Sprint. Cheaper by half & unlimited data.
AyTeeLien
Once again, that’s because Cricket piggybacks on other networks. During peak hours, you may notice some latency in your connection.
Counterfit
Cricket is actually owned and operated by AT&T
Melanisia
Just don't roam... roaming on prepaid is expensive.
VrryBurntpork
But they don't have service contracts anymore... What do we call them now!?

I work for the largest prepaid service company. We own 8 brands of prepaid services. Good majority of them suck balls.
Steffn
In which way do they suck?
strideo
Balls.
DontAskMeAboutMyUsernameOkay

Walmart Family Mobile. The first 1GB of data is 4G and then it's bumped down to 2G, but I don't use data so idgaf.
facedownthumbsup
Thank you
infiniteblaze
They also are more likely to restrict speeds, so keep that in mind.
jfeiser
This is true for individuals but it can be cheaper to pay for a family unlimited plan once you reach a certain amount of lines.
Donnarhahn
Boost is offering 4 lines of unlimited data for $100.
packetdog
This. 100% this. My per line charge for unlimited everything last month was $17!
RaynWisp
The prepaid ones almost all offer family plans where you save $5-10 a line. They don't have much in the way of add-ons though.
RaynWisp
Example of that: Boost hotspot data has a hard cap at 8GB, there is NO way to raise that whatsoever.
tardis63
My family uses Ting, 4 phones and it's between 50-60 per month total. All it takes is using Wifi whenever you can and not data
AccountCreatedToUpvoteDogs
For single lines, no brainer. With families it's not as cut and dry. I'm on a Sprint plan, 4 unlimited lines for $90/mo (first year promo).
RaynWisp
How long is the contract?
AccountCreatedToUpvoteDogs
No contract, but the promo rate ends June 2018 and goes up to $150. At that point I may start checking prepaid.
tardis63
On Ting, my family is under $60 for 4 phones. Not unlimited, but using Wifi isn't hard
livingscreamydreamy
The only running issue that people have is the low choice of “high end” phones, and when they’re offered you must pay full price for prepaid
Steffn
What do you mean by low choice? You can buy _any_ phone and simply put the card into it by yourself.
Donnarhahn
BYOD
strideo
Do any carriers subsidize the phones anymore? You used to get a huge discount with a contract but now they just tack extra monthly costs on-
strideo
you bill and call it a lease or a monthly payment for the phone. I just end up looking for a decent deal on a phone and buying it myself.
SomeDetroitGuy
The discount you get on the phone is more than offset by the extra plan cost with the contract
livingscreamydreamy
Agreed, there are some people who prefer the device over the plan however
HyrumGraff
I did the math on this a few years back. Assuming you get a new phone each time the contract is up (every 2 years), it's about the same -->
HyrumGraff
--> If you can take care of your phone for longer than that, or if you buy a cheaper phone (eg, Moto E, or even Moto G), you save. Plus -->
HyrumGraff
--> you're, you know, not locked in to a plan, so if your carrier does something that screws you over you can take your business elsewhere.
Rizen415
Also: the prepays throttle down the bandwidth after a certain threshold on data is surpassed
livingscreamydreamy
Don’t forget the amount of third party companies that can access that bandwidth
GoodGuyRK
So do the original service providers, usually at the same amount of data. Verizon unlimited is only 6gb
unorthodoxbuilds
My verizon unlimited (last time i checked) was 14gb before throttling and even then only if there was a high demand on the towers.
GoodGuyRK
I'll have to check for more specifics, but that sounds waaaayyyy better than mine
RaynWisp
Boost is 26Gb
Broadway2
At&t is similar but throttles at 22gb and only if on a high demand or “congested” tower
cropduster5000
I think Verizon advertises 22GB before throttling, last I checked
MrShoez
They also piggyback on larger carriers towers and get lower priority over those carriers.
tardis63
It's not much of a problem unless you're in a crowded place like a music festival or sporting event
poscduke
That's what my GETS card is for (just kidding that's super illegal)
WickedSludge
I have a T-mobile prepaid plan that gives me unlimited data for $30/mo.
TheRicemanCometh
Yea but the downside is having T-mobile
AlexisWalker
Well I have T-mobile, but only because my mom bought it for me. Apparently being 23 and having no means of communication is "unacceptable".
WickedSludge
I've been using this plan since 2010...hasn't been a problem for me.
Hummingbirdbandit
People be dvoting you, but within twenty miles of my (suburban) home, T-Mobile just does not work.
WickedSludge
I happen to live 20 miles from any major city, on 3 acres out in farm country and I have 4G at my house and the whole drive in town *shrug*
TheRicemanCometh
I may be defeated but I will try to keep you above zero.
sanaujiram
Lower priority? So slower service?
MrShoez
Slower service, and possibility of having your call bumped off the tower to allow one of the "main" network subscribers go through.
JeSuisBaguette
woa woa woa, now i have to worry about my signal being bummed and beaten ?
Steffn
Where did you get that from?

I used to work customer retention for sprint. He's right.

OldPogue
If work gives you a free phone w/ unlimited data, why carry a personal? Do you like carrying 2 phones around?
dashers
I don't like carrying two, but when I'm not on call or on holiday I like being uncontactable by work. Plus my work one has limited apps etc
OldPogue
Thanks for sharing your reasons; I’ve not paid a cell bill in over a decade and have never understood those w/ 2 phones.
OldPogue
Admit that I don’t send dic pics, sell drugs, or watch snuff films. Can’t turn it off; on-call 24/7. Everything else hasn’t been a problem
OldPogue
For 3 different companies. Big Brother has your personal calls/texts and your company honestly doesn’t care unless you are breaking laws.
HiddenSanity
Some companies do, some don't.
OldPogue
So there are companies that issue you a phone but forbid you to make personal calls/texts? Valid reason for 2 phones; looking for a new job
poscduke
I work in government, anything I do on my work phone could technically fall under a FOIA request
OldPogue
First valid reason I’ve heard...even if I don’t know what a FOIA request it.
poscduke
Freedom of Information Act
SatansLittleButtPlug
I'm allowed to use the data plan on my work phone for anything. But i am not allowed to do personal calls or texts on it.
beckygreen19880124
To seperate their personal and professional lives maybe

Watching porn on work phone = no more work phone
strideo
My wife has a work phone and a personal phone. She doesn't carry two phones around. She doesn't want to give up her personal number. She
strideo
doesn't take the work phone with her anywhere on nights and weekends.
SanSamis
I'm not supposed to send dick pics from my work phone, though. There was a meeting.
OldPogue
I guess This is a valid reason for a p-phone, but you haven’t convinced me to run out & buy one with your “argument”.
CluelessTennisball
Meating
AMatureTwink
Because you can’t watch porn and execution vids on a work phone silly
OldPogue
Maybe YOU can’t...
khalimwu
execution porn videos? brother, is that you?
AMatureTwink
The doctor told me to let go.
LF101
Work phones are typically monitored in some way.
OldPogue
Sure, but do you know how & by whom? Big Brother monitors EVERYTHING; even your secret personal phone. Company won’t care if B.B. doesn’t
GlitterInTheDarkNearTheTannhauserGate
Depends on the OS and setup, but they could wipe your phone anytime they want, which is a hassle if you use it personally as well.
Avunia
Company will fire you if they see you doing something on that phone they dont like. Could be anything.
OldPogue
Company COULD fire you for doing something they don’t like; on a phone or not. Don’t do stupid shit @ work.
Napsaremymistress
My work had strict rules on what you could do on the company phone. Also, it was technically a government contract so...
romicra88
Not a problem unless they somehow keep it from being a mobile hotspot
OldPogue
Which can be done; score another reason for the 2 phone folks!
sindrealmost
The employer owns the phone, can most likely legally analyse and monitor traffic to and from the device regardless of what that traffic is.
thebaldeagle888
government issue dicks you say?
bmurr95

Lulabel73
You can turn your work phone off at 5pm on a Friday.
OldPogue
Maybe YOU can; I cannot. On-call 24/7; although 2am calls are rare.
DidntGetTheReference
Must be IT.
Lulabel73
That’s why some people choose to have a work phone and a personal phone.
OldPogue
Waste your money however you chose; I’ve just never had an issue using a company phone on my free time.
Lulabel73
I don’t even have a job. Lol
CuntingtonFuckley
For personal calls/texts/browsing.
OldPogue
So what are u doing that’s so bad? Big Brother already knows and if they haven’t knocked on your door, odds are your company won’t press it
CuntingtonFuckley
You want your company to potentially access all your personal messages? You going to look at porn on your work phone?
iamthisguy247
Yeah it sounds weird but I know a lot of people with the two phone setup because of this.
strideo
Also if you lose the job or quit you lose that phone and phone number.
OldPogue
Sounds like a waste of money to me; spend yours however you like.
iamthisguy247
Agreed but some companies are tough on phone use so I understand how some would want a separate personal/fun phone.
