I still am making payments on my phone but it is showing it’s unlocked. I plan to pay my phone just may not be able to pay it off immediately. I want to go to a more affordable pre-paid carrier in my area with better coverage than T-Mobile. Biggest reason for the switch - saves me about $100 a month which I then can begin to get back on my feet & pay off the rest of the phone. Can I still cancel without penalties?

You need to talk to Customer Care or the T-Force Team to see what your options are.  Usually canceling makes the entire raining balance of the device on EIP due immediately and all promotions are forfeited.  In some cases, T-Mobile will allow you to continue making payments but that has to be arranged prior to cancelation.  Give 611 a call and speak to Customer Care or reach out to the T-Force Team through DM'ing T-Mobile on Facebook or Twitter to discuss your options.

Is the provider cheaper than the Tmobile Connect plans?

No but Tmobile’s service is so sporadic where I’m at. If you aren’t in a bigger town, then you are lucky to even get text messages. Most everyone I know lives either in a little piss-ant town where I get only text messages or outside of town where I get absolutely nothing.
