Cell phone contracts after bk?

Time for a new cell phone contract!  I can tell what credit cards to apply for with a bk, but what cell phone carriers will sign you up with a ch 13 bk?

You may have to pay a large deposit or go with one of the many "pay as you go" phones.

Right.  That's what I'm trying to avoid, so I'm hoping some good folks will offer some feedback on their experiences with cell phone contracts after ch 13 bk.  Hopefully, someone will give me a heads up on contracts that did/did not accept them in this situation.

Hello utah2009, I got a contract with sprint while I was in bk13 and have maintained it over 3yrs. I started it at a walmart center with no charges other than the phone upgrade. They do give you a spending limit that may start out low but will build if you stay with them. My scores were in the mid 500s when I got the phone. Hope this helps. Btw I now get good offers from att,altel in the mail all the time but sprint is still serving me well.
