I switched off of Sprint to Altice in Feb/March 2020... initially it was ok though occasionally people would complain they didn’t hear me well. Used the service for work calls as well throughout lockdown months and it was abysmal. Dropped calls all the time. Perhaps I was using the phone way more often and therefore noticed ...

I switched to T Mobile paying almost double the price and won’t look back.

One positive note, it calls international cell phones for free including Israel. That’s a loss
