Verizon vs US Mobile: Big Red versus the so-called Super Carrier

US Mobile not only runs on Verizon's network, but it also has the option of switching to AT&T or T-Mobile's network as well.

Verizon might be one of the biggest carriers in the US, but it’s far from the only option out there. In fact, many carriers operate independently but utilize Verizon’s extensive network. One of these options is US Mobile, and it has increasingly become one of my favorite alternatives to Verizon.

US Mobile is unique in that it’s the only prepaid carrier offering a choice of all three major networks. While US Mobile has technically offered T-Mobile and Verizon for a while, switching between carriers wasn’t always easy once you made your initial choice. That has now changed. Not only do you get access to T-Mobile and Verizon, but you can also access AT&T, and switching between the networks is quite simple, which I’ll discuss later in this post.
