Many of us suspect we’re paying too much for mobile service. The kicker is: we usually are.
Cherrie Vrabel certainly felt that way. The Crystal Springs, Florida homeowner was forking over $100 a month for phone service — and she still couldn’t get a signal inside her own house.
Whenever she needed to place a call, she had to step outdoors.
After enduring this for three years, Vrabel, 57, began searching for an alternative to T-Mobile. She had been relying on Wi‑Fi to use her phone, but that wasn’t a viable long-term solution — especially in Florida, where sudden storms often interrupt power and connectivity.
She experimented with a range of choices — other major carriers and some budget prepaid providers. None offered better reception or customer support.
When she learned about an affordable, no-contract provider called Pure TalkUSA, she decided to try it. The result: she saved a lot of money and gained more data.
She Cut Her Monthly Bill by $75 and Got Double the Data
Vrabel used Pure TalkUSA’s one-month trial in February and hasn’t regretted the move. She’s telling everyone she knows to switch — “they’re crazy not to!” she says.
There’s plenty she appreciates about her new carrier. For one, she now pays $25 a month for unlimited talk and text, plus 4 GB of data. That’s twice the data she had with T‑Mobile and $75 less every month.
Even better: she can actually make calls from inside her home without depending on Wi‑Fi. Since switching to Pure TalkUSA, which runs on the AT&T network, she hasn’t experienced a single dropped call.
And although changing phone plans usually feels like a headache, Vrabel says this transition was effortless. She placed a call to the company, a Pure TalkUSA representative guided her through the steps, she received a new SIM card in the mail, popped it into her phone — and that was it.
How Much Could You Trim Off Your Phone Bill Next Month?
Pure TalkUSA may not be a major carrier, but for Vrabel it performs like one — without the steep price tag. And unlike some no-contract providers, you won’t have to visit a store each month to add minutes or data.
“That’s a pain in the neck,” Vrabel notes. “What if you’re ill? You don’t want to have to go out just to keep your phone working. I don’t have to deal with any of that.”
She also isn’t bound by a long-term contract. You can try the service risk-free for 30 days; if it doesn’t suit you, they’ll refund your money.
Monthly plans begin at $20 per line, and every option includes unlimited talk and text. Want unlimited talk, text and data? That plan is $55 a month.
Right now there’s also an offer for 50% off your first bill.

If reliable coverage isn’t reason enough to move to Pure TalkUSA, “the savings alone are incredible,” Vrabel says.
