“More data, better service!”

“I switched from TruConnect to Cliq Mobile and immediately noticed the difference in data allowance. With TruConnect, I was always running out of data by the third week of the month. Cliq actually gives me 6GB instead of 4.5GB, and their customer service actually answers the phone when I call!”
