Too bad TMobile service is horrible in my town. No service more than 1 wall in a building, and no service in the center of the town I work in.

That is considerably better than my plan with Virgin Mobile that offers none of that for the same price. I wonder if T-Mobile and Sprint merge if Virgin Mobile and Boost Mobile (both wholly owned by Sprint) are just going to go away.


$60 Virgin Mobile Unlimited Talk Text and 4G LTE High Speed Data
  • Optimized streaming videos, games and music, Unlimited 4G LTE Data for most everything else
  • Unlimited Talk with 99% Nationwide coverage with voice roaming (includes 50 minutes of domestic voice roaming)
  • Unlimited Text including text, picture and video messaging
  • Unlimited streaming music w/o data charges (existing partners)
  • Additional services available for purchase (Mobile Hotspot, International Calling, Entertainment Options)

T Mobile has a nice coverage map that shows they lack the towers that verizon and AT&T have for rural areas so unless I want to not have phone service in my house, I'll have to stick with verizon. Extended range LTE can't compensate for the lack of towers.

Someone on nocontract said they did this rebranding to increase fees.

All the new Metro plans have their taxes and fees baked into the monthly rate so if they are increasing fees, it is not obvious.
