wrightwmc Report post Posted April 13, 2012 We are thinking of changing cell phone providers since we are being charged way too much money. Has anyone had any experience with this FMCA benefit? How is the coverage as you travel? Are the costs really fixed? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wrightwmc Report post Posted April 15, 2012 Thanks Brad & Kathy The ATN (really ITN) phone service is advertised in the March Family Motor Coaching magazine on page 37. I could see a $30 and $60 plan for the two of us for the $90 fee. But Rebecca would not tolerate the service if coverage is 50/50. I've seen her throw a Sprint Blackberry over 50 feet in frustration many times. LOL Bill & Rebecca Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bizsmith@yahoo.com Report post Posted April 15, 2012 We hedge our bets. One Verizon, one AT&T. Sometimes one is better, sometimes the other, sometimes neither. I don't know if any system will result in 100%. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skyking8 Report post Posted April 15, 2012 I've traveled in all 50 states and RV'd in 42. I would not have anything other than Verizon. But as was mentioned, no carrier has 100% coverage. If you can get someone else to go in with you on a friends and family plan (up to 5), everyone will save on monthly service costs. If you can do without a smartphone, then you won't have the added expense of the data plan (required for all smartphones). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
