I hope that T-Mobile never changes my plan. I'm very happy with what I'm paying. I signed up with them in 2011 I think, whatever year they were doing free international, because I was heading on my first Eurotrip and free international was clutch! Now I stay with them because they allow the use of Chinese phones on their network.


They went down again yesterday, seems like twice in a week, but I'll let that slide as long as my plan stays the same and my Chinese phones still work.

The 5g availability is better, on the other hand the overall coverage has bigger gaps and the competitors are improving their 5g network.

Way too many unacceptable shenanigans from t mobile.

It's the opposite what the company used to be. Time to leave and it's not that difficult.

I have been ruminating about just going to Google fi since it is literally half the cost. It's just me on my plan and I feel like It's a ridiculous cost. I stayed with T-Mobile at first because I had that sync up device on my car but no longer need it. It's just a matter of getting around to it.

When I was told that my bill was going up by $6 each of my 9 phone lines, I contemplated leaving. But the advantages over ATT and Verizon were just too much. My family travels a lot. Just the fact that I get 5 GB in 215 different countries and 15 GB in Canada or Mexico, along with free texting is a boon compared to paying for each individual to have their own lines. Also the data speeds where I live at times hit 1.2 Gb per sec (according to speed test). Another great boon is the things that TMO offers with T-Mobile Tuesdays, Netflix, Hulu, $5 movie tickets free or reduced cost food.


I personally love going to watch IMAX movies at AMC for $5 or even D-Box movies at Cinemark! Verizon and att don't offer much to make it worthwhile

I switched to Visible about 6 months ago from Verizon and it was the best decision ever. I paid 375 bucks for the mid tier plan for the entire year. I get all the same perks as Verizon with out all the bloat and BS at 1/3 of the cost. Unlimited everything except hotspot which is 20gigs of highspeed and then throttled but still works.

Check out Visible, I've been using them for 6 months and love them. Plus I paid for the whole year for 375 bucks.

After 25 years with sprint then t mobile the latest price increase was the end. Switched to Tello which runs on the t mobile network. My bill is now less than 1/2 what it was and no issues with service.

I actually thought about that, but then I do not want to bring ANY attention to my account while they are raising prices. haha Thanks for the heads up though!
