Cellphone question

So I got a new phone on a new provider. I noticed it was always on 3g, so when I checked my mobile networks it was only on CDMA. I swapped it to lte/CDMA and am now getting lte.

Is there any reason to not have this on? I have unlimited data. Why would it be defaulted to just CDMA?

I don't know shit about phones. Just trying to get the most out of my money, and I know lte is faster.

I don't know, but you seem like a really nice fella.

usually LTE contracts cost a bit more but other than that idk why it should be off at all ...

I'm thinking either they assume not everyone has coverage, or they don't want me abusing my unlimited data so they defaulted me slower haha
