Same
Network - Different Carrier
What Network Do They Use? These are
separate, "alternative" companies that
use the same wireless networks as the major carriers, usually at a
lower price. They're also
known
as Mobile Virtual Network
Operators (MVNO), wholesale carriers, or cellular "re-sellers". You
get your phone, plan and customer service from
these companies instead of the underlying carrier. Some use
more than one network and the type of wireless device
determines
whether a CDMA or GSM carrier is used. OR

WHAT
ALTERNATIVES MADE OUR LIST?
Much
thought has been put into which carriers are shown on our list of
Alternative Networks. The largest Prepaid carriers are
obvious: they have millions of customers and
provide reliable service. Other smaller
carriers have proven themselves just by staying in business for a long
time and not receiving many complaints. Others provide
a unique product such as "WiFi
First",
and carriers that
appeal to a specific group of users. What is not included on
our list is the Prepaid versions of the main cellular carriers which
are
reviewed at Mountain
Prepaid.
