T-Mobile the good, the bad and the ugly.. (Miami, Miramar: credit, to buy)

[Mac4life30]

Looking at switching carriers and T-Mobile seems to be the best value.. Anyone here NOT recommend T- Mobile? The main areas I would seek coverage in are Miami Lakes, Doral. Miramar, Pines...

No issues with T-Mobile. Used them for 20 years now (started with previous carrier whom they purchased). Go for it.

I have had T-Mobile for over ten years at least, no issues, I live in Brickell. I will add, no issues really anywhere in the world I have gone aside from the occasional dead spot.

The only coverage area issue I have encountered is Old Cutler by Fairchild Garden, but that is just data, still can call. But I think they may have covered it now? Because I usually stream music while driving and did not notice, but could have been buffered.

Was a loyal customer for years, until I realized the service started to decrease for bad. Most calls were jumped and went straight to mailbox. Prices are not competitive with other brands. Seems now their business is making alliances with other companies such as MetroPc, and Simplemobile; yet they don't have discounts on new cell-phones in despite being same owner. You have to pay full price. On top they don't have plans neither for loyalty customers nor to make upgrades or take your old phone like in other brands. Basically they want you to sell a phone full price and stuff you a 2 years credit line. They just don't care if you abandon the ship. This didn't happen in the past. They' used to do whatever to retain you, but now seems all is vanity. They hire seductive models in stores that just doesn't make any effort to sell. It's like take or leave it.

I changed to simplemobile plan which is also their partner for $50 including a 10GB, in comparison with a $60 mobile plan with only 7GB T-mobile plan. I had to buy a cheap lg fiesta for wet damage since new phones are $800 and that's what I paid two years ago for my Samsung S6, and now it's $36 on eBay. And I was so sad, but then realized it's absolutely the same crap. It's ridiculous. I even got more than 12 hours without charging different than the S6 only 4 and having to carry my charger whatever I went not to mention it started to slow down out of the blue before it got wet damage. I've heard apple was sued because it was found they did this on purpose to force ppl buy new phones. I suspect Samsung is doing same. It was pretty annoying. New phones are just not that different and no worth your money.

With T-Mobile, I am paying a $100, not including taxes, for three lines, unlimited everything including that international package, not bad I think.

My S-5 is going on I forget, over five years old now, just fine it works. When it goes, will probably get a couple year old Galaxy model.
