Cell phone networks
A year or two ago somebody posted a link to a list of phone companies and the network the were on.
My search came up empty. Anybody have it?

Thanks

What I am looking for was a list of companies and what network they are on.
Not an app.

Prepaidphonenews.com may have what you are looking for. They have descriptions of most of the MVNO's in the United States.

Those coverage maps are close to useless.

They lead you to believe there is coverage in areas that there just isn't.

It is blood red where I live, but in reality coverage is spotty st best.

I have been using Verizon for so long I can't remember.

Absolutely zero problems, great coverage.

That's not what he's looking for. He wants to find a list that shows what MVNO services use which national carrier for their cell coverage. Like Boost uses the Sprint network and MetroPCS uses T-mobiles network.

It appears like there is a list on wikipedia
