Dear Reader, AT&T and Verizon Wireless have supported extremist right-wingers, conservative politicians, and the obstructionist Blue-Dogs who now threaten to derail substantial healthcare reform. Since 1985, CREDO Mobile has fought for all the causes you believe in, such as real healthcare reform, free speech, peace, and the environment. Their members have generated $63 million for groups such as the ACLU, Doctors Without Borders, Planned Parenthood and Earthjustice. They're also avid supporters of independent media organizations like AlterNet. Isn't it time your phone company fought for your values? Don Hazen Executive Editor, AlterNet.org

Their customer support was worse than useless. It felt like a slap in the face. The minute I switched to CREDO I knew I was going to be much happier. Their customer service should win an award. Everyone I've spoken to is knowledgeable, courteous and easy to understand. And I always get a person on the phone right away. That brings my stress level way down." - Rachel A., CREDO Mobile customer   * With two-year CREDO Mobile service agreement. Offer subject to credit qualification.
