I'm very happy with the phone and the service so far, and I'm only paying $10/month for unlimited calls and text. I also get unlimited data if I have WiFi access and can upgrade the service if necessary at a reasonable cost. And there's no contract!!!
Me too!! Me too!! I switched to Republic 18 months ago, got a Moto X 2nd Gen, and I could not be happier with it. I hate the contract phones, what a crock. I paid for my phone up front, and I'm also on the $10/month plan. I did the math, Republic vs. Verizon, and over the two-year span of Verizon's contract, I will save $1500. And that INCLUDES the price of the phone!
My recommendation came from Clark Howard, the consumer advocate.
