All the ads emphasize that the plans have ALL fees + taxes included.
The visual is a shotput-sized "period" that gets hurled into the cement wall
after the price.

What's the name of the company?

    Could it be Cricket Wireless?
    I know they have the taxes and fees included in their price.

      Thanks. I'll check that out. I thought cricket was the one for "old people."
      The one I'm looking for is definitely directed at young people. The spokesperson (who almost gets hit with the shotput "period"!) is about 20 yrs old.
      It's marketed as for "hipster" types.

        I'm pretty sure you're thinking of Jitterbug here. I can't recall the name of the one you want, though.

        Raising a child is akin to knowing you're getting fired in 18 years and having to train your replacement without actively sabotaging them.

        There's another company that I think is called Metro that has ads directed at youngins
        I've got the text and talk plan with Cricket, it's unlimited for $25 a month. They are owned by ATT and use the ATT network so I get very good reception around here and most importantly in my house.
        They also have some text, talk, and data plans that are reasonably priced.
