T-Mobile’s next move could be devastating for AT&T and Verizon

Tmo coverage is still ass. I used a prepaid tmo card for a dry run and I couldn't even make it beyond two weeks. Once you've experienced a reliable network like Verizon you realize how far behind these other carriers are.

Contracts are already a thing of the past most companies have month to month set ups that are cheaper than the contracts and do all the same things. I let my Verizon contract finish and I had been with Verizon 10 years. I'm still with Verizon month to month cut my bill in half.
 
I got that $70 plan too. No issues with the service so far. I've been with them about two months now.

How did you cut your bill in half with Verizon?
 
T-Mobile service is good around large metro areas but once you get outta the city limits it goes down hill fast.

I have both T-Mobile and AT&T, AT&T is definitely better when traveling between cities.

Both use GSM network, which I prefer over CDMA.
 
Y'all forget that you have to pay full price for a phone. Your AT&T phone will work if you unlock it but phones cost $17 to $24 a month for 24 months.
 
Att is a billion dollar company . How would this be devastating to them? If anything tmobile will go bankrupt trying to may niggas etf

Yeah, everything I've hear seems to c/s this.

I'm looking to make a move to T-Mobile. I used to be on the road a lot for work, but I don't need the rural coverage anymore. T-Mobile should be just fine for my needs.

I cant really co-sign though. I live about 2 miles from downtown ATL and my service was atrocious.
 
I have T-mobile and the service is great in the city. Rarely, I'll lose reception in the country but I never have a problem and I drive long distances occasionally.

I have the $70 buck plan with unlimited talk, text and data with no throttling and tethering. That international data shit is the best. I was in the DR on twitter, facebook, instagram, internet with no problem!

I've been with T-Mobile since they were voicestream so they give my all the hook-ups first.

Moreover, that shit with Sprint aint happening. T-Mobile was actually sold to Verizon, i think, and AT&T blocked that shit like a goalie. The government agreed saying it would limit competition so no way they'll allow Spring to purchase them.

I got two months left until I'm able to jump up to that Note 3 and a nigga can't wait!

Naw, they would do the 3 and 4

Remember AT&T and Cingular? Because there would still be three major carriers.

They wouldn't have done 1 and 4, because Sprint was already suffering, which would have helped AT&T or Verizon go after them.

Now with Softbanks money Sprint is pretty strong financially...they just need to work on keeping and getting customers.
 
the other silly thing about this article is that att is trying to move away from the contract model with their phone leasing option. which means that people are now paying for the phone over time or paying full retail upfront.

att no longer wants to subsidize equipment. they are pushing that shit hard. so if a customer is leasing a phone from att how likely are they to jump ship. interesting question to ponder.

if they already own the phone and can unlock it who knows what they will do.

but I will say this wireless is changing fast.

FCC Takes a Whack at Phone Unlocking Ban -- Now It's Congress's Turn

VIA EFF - Link

DECEMBER 17, 2013

Last week, facing pressure from the Federal Communications Commission, the major wireless carriers promised to unlock mobile devices so that they can be used on other carriers' networks when the customer's contract has expired. This follows the outcry early this year over the Library of Congress's decision to remove legal protection against Digital Millennium Copyright Act suits for people who unlock their devices to change carriers. We're happy to see the FCC take a stand and demand action from the wireless carriers, although the root of the problem—the DMCA's broad and inflexible ban on circumventing digital locks—remains for Congress to fix.
