I know more than a few people who have been stuck in long-term contracts with a cell phone service that they weren’t completely happy with. Until now, it was virtually impossible to get out of these plans without some serious penalties. It’s still not easy to get completely off the hook, but some carriers are starting to lighten up.

CNNMoney.com had some good suggestions for either changing a plan or switching carriers altogether with little or no penalties. The best bet, however, is to probably find a great cell phone carrier from the start. Good luck, huh?
