Anyone use Credo for their cellular provider? (Albuquerque, Bernalillo: discount, office) - New Mexico (NM) - City-Data Forum

If so, how is the service/reception in Albuquerque, and in general?

From what I've heard from people who have signed on with discount carriers...you get what you pay for.

A lady in my office uses Credo. This MVNO basically uses the Sprint network in ABQ. And just like Sprint, service in ABQ is spotty and quite weak outside the city, particularly away from the interstates. But she sticks with them because of their philanthropic business model.

They're not a discount carrier. They are an alternate carrier with philanthopic goals.

Thanks for the helpful answer. That's what I wanted to know.

I use Credo and have had great service/reception both in Albuquerque and in the town of Bernalillo. I moved here a month and a half ago from Seattle, so I don't have a lot of experience yet using my cell phone in different areas locally - just know that during the drive down here and since I've been here I've had no problems, and, like always, Credo's customer service is the absolute best.
