Tmobile and Citizens Bank in Ft Lauderdale area (Sunrise, Oakland Park: stores, sawgrass)

[MariaMaz]

Does anyone have Tmobile in Ft. Lauderdale? How is the service? Are there plenty of stores or kiosks there?

Also, Is there a Citizen's Bank in the area?

[ruski]

T-Mobile ervice is OK but not stellar. I lose signal inside buildings.

Haven't seen any Citizen's banks around here.

Thanks, Ruski! Don't like the idea of changing banks.

Looks like there are very few branches of Citizens

Are in Rhode Island?

I found those branches too, but they all seem to be in a Cumberland Farms. I think they might just be ATMs and not actual branches. I don't go into the branch very often at all, so it may not be a problem for a while. I'd hate to have to fly all the way back to Western NY to close my accounts though.

There are also found a few Tmobile locations in Lauderdale Lake, Pompano and Oakland. Will just have to see how bad the service actually is...and where.

Thanks!

I have T-Mobile and I encounter several dead zones. Usually at Sawgrass Mills (not the mall proper, but on the fringe areas just north of Sunrise Blvd, also at the CVS on Oakland Park Blvd & Hiatus Rd (though I usually get good reception at the post office a few yards further south). I have trouble at several Publix stores, which makes me wonder if they are running their own signals that interfere.

I have a pay-as-you-go from T-Mobile, because I don't like contracts, and I wonder if they get weaker signals than the contracted phones

I have a contracted T Mobile phone through work, and I experience some dead zones too.

Same experience inside of Publix.

Thanks all...still paying for our phones, so we'll probably have to stick with T-Mobile. At least for a little while.
