Does anybody here use CREDO mobile?

I get a ton of emails from them claiming to promote progressive causes if you switch to their cellphone service, which I guess uses the Verizon network.

Right now, they have a deal for a 128GB iPhone 7 for $99 if you switch. I've never used an iPhone, but I'm about at the point where I need a new phone (currently have a Droid Turbo 2, which I liked for the shatterproof screen, but I've been underwhelmed otherwise and have only used Android phones previously.)

Any pros/cons to using CREDO? Online reviews are generally mixed, so I wanted to go to some real progressives to get input.

My daughter needs a new phone as well, but she HATES that the new iphone doesn't have a headphone jack.

They use the Sprint network. They do support progressive causes; each month they ask their customers to vote on which organizations they will donate money to.

if you switch to CREDO and get a new phone, it's Verizon, but if you keep your phone it's Sprint.

It may be true; with all of the mergers of corporations these days it is hard to know who owns what anymore.
