I dunno, my plan is pretty lame.
For $49 a month, I get $400 worth of calls/texts and 1GB of data.
To be fair though, I got my HTC Desire for free with that plan, last November (might have been September? I don't remember :o).
Still crap :stongue:
Edit: None of that rolls over to the next month, either, if that's what you were implying. |

I like my "five faves" plan, coupled with google voice I basically get free unlimited calling. Plus it's helpful for work.
I really don't want to give that up or have to get an AT&T -modeled Nexus One replacement (btw best phone ever). |

Luckily I just renewed my T-Mo plan in December/January, so they can't touch me for another 2 years. Kind of dreading wanting to get a new phone though :mad:
Maybe I could go back to Sprint? I had Nextel (pre-Sprint) briefly before switching to T-Mobile and it was AWFUL. Have they're coverage/plans have gotten much better since the merger? |

same here man, had nextel (it sucked) then got T-Mobile. Honestly, rumors are spreading about Verizon making a bid on Sprint, you'd be best advised to just wait it out as a slew of 4g dual-core phones are coming out this summer. Electronic-mail is the future! |

I'm actually pretty upset about the dual-core Android phones. I bought my G2 in December, 2 weeks later at CES they were announced to have a release date of Summer. What the :stongue: |

only issue i see w/ this is HSPA+ is being replaced w/ LTE so all our t-mobile devices (GSM included) wont' work come October so we'll have to get new devices that require "special plans that work for your specific device"... basically they're going to try and rope us into tiered data plans etc |
that. I've been a T-mobile customer for nearly 17 years now (when it was mercury in the UK, then 1 to 1 and finally T-mobile) and there's no way I'm ever going to be a AT&T cunstomer.
Verizon is utter e - I tried them for a month for my business phones: they charged me for erroneous random app downloads and I literally had to threaten a piss fit in the store to get them to reverse the charges. Coverage was in densely populated areas (LA - wtf?) and their customer services was terrible. Even when i took the phones back within the 30 day period they tried to me on charges, and had I not gone through the 17 page bill (which was like trying to decipher the enigma code) I would have been at least $100 worse off.
I actually think Verizon has a lot to do with the LTE changeover, but then the other carriers welcomed it as it meant a ton of new equipment must be bought to conform (obey, consume) to the new network.
Verizon were the only ones that were non GSM.
It basically a really underhand way of forcing people out of their contracts. My contract does not exist and on current tarrifs, I'd be $600 per year worse off.
In the UK, when T-mobile launched, they were the only ones offering unlimited plans. Fast forward a couple of years later and they were desperately trying to buy people out of those loss making contracts - a mate of mine got offered £4500 to give it up and still didn't.
Unfortnately there's not the same protection laws over here, so all they have to do is change the network type and all our contracts are meaningless. |
