I so wish I could be a T-mobile customer. We just do not have good enough coverage. I would be off line so much if I moved to them. I spend way too much time in rural areas that they just don't' cover.
I am constantly checking other providers. 200 a month is killing me for phones.
Just have to be able to live on the Sprint or T-Mobile network. Paying full price for the phone is the only real painful thing, but it's also part of how my bill is so tiny.
Yeah. Neither of those networks gets great coverage in this area.

Wow with that I would be paying more than I do through Verzion but we have about 15K in text messages, 30 gigs of Data some months and about 6000 minutes calls a month.
Keep in mind that we use this as our backup internet connection when it goes out (which is more often than it should). And I use follow me or Zoiper for our phone system to my phone etc. so we do a TON of data. Also I use one of the phones for GroveSocial so there is lots of minutes used there. Text messages I have deaf siblings and this is how the whole family communicates with each other.

Yeah, got to watch that. I remember you mentioning how crazy your usage is. Figured that usage chart needed to be included for some odd reason.

You're paying less than $70 a month (for one phone, $40 for 4) for unlimited on Verizon?

No with that plan above I would be paying FAR more than I do through Verzion. Sorry didn't mean to confuse

Ooh ok. I was going to say, that's pretty amazing with Verizon.

Saw an ad last night for T-Mobile, $40/month taxes and fees included. This changes things HUGE! This could easily knock more than 15% off my bill.

Math is hard.

Hmm... 222-110 = 112?
awww.. so it is - but who cares about that number? that's a misleading number that no one gives a shit about. And while it's completely accurate, it just shows how advertisers are trying to mislead people, and for what? $62 savings isn't enough for people to switch?

For me it would be, if they had good service in the areas where I spend most of my time.

For most American's it would be, it's more than a day's take home pay.

I do think their use of the WTF is pretty awesome though.

It's almost worth the risk of paying for one month, get a SIM card and try out a temporary number for 2 weeks or so and see how the service is. Of course that would royally screw up my Telegram account

In slightly related news from about a year ago:
Apparently TMobile may be violating Net Neutrality laws. For price? I'd switch. Though, for me personally, learning about this makes me wonder if I'd support TMobile. Though, still not sure how much into the whole Boycotting thing I am. So, for now, just information for you guys.https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2016/01/friends-please-tell-t-mobiles-ceo-about-eff

They have a pay as you go. So I actually bought two sims last night on sale for like $3.80 a piece. Just to see if the service is worth it.
