“I’m a fan of Sprint and recommend them highly.”
Watch out for Sprint — they offer a credit union discount and then remove it at the first opportunity. It was 10% every month until one of my kids upgraded a phone. Then they conveniently removed it. Been unable to get it back since.
Crooks I say.
Suggest you try one of the resellers who use sprint towers. That way you can keep your phone and just port it.
