F#$@ T-Mobile!

[Birdie07]

I had T-mobile since I was 17. I loved it. My husband though had AT&T. Well I switched when he got me the iPhone. But we live in CO and there is no AT&T tower so after a certain amount of time with us "roaming" though technically we're not b/c we're going through other towers. But AT&T has to pay the companies of those towers so it's not worth it to them ANyways point is they will be cutting our service off at a certain time b/c of this. I'm pissed too but really nothing we can do. I wish I could have it. The only provider out here is Verizon ugh!

T Mobile is crap over here 2 - I think its a worldwide thing unfortunately. If you ever get 3 DONT use them they are chronic

We get great service down here where we live, but the 3 years he has been traveling for work, T-Mo has been crappy!

 

I ended up taking my phone in and they are going to send me a replacement since it is still under warranty. They didn't have a lender phone, but we have an old standby we use when our phones break.

 

I called him and it worked....of course he couldn't answer because he doesn't have service, but at least I know they turned it back on. I am just going to tell him to turn the phone off and only use it in areas he knows he has service.

 

The guy at T-MO store said they rec'd an email about the roaming thing and the reason they are doing this is because it costs T-MO more when ppl roam. They are going to lose a lot of customers this way.

 

 

Harty....is 3 another carrier?

Not sure how I missed this thread. But, I'm glad everything worked out in the end. I just switched back to T-Mobile from Helio and it sucks. Which is why I said don't know how I missed the thread! LOL. I switched to T-Mobile from Sprint when I moved to the Netherlands and everything was fine. I used it for personal use and used my Vodaphone for work. Moved back to the States changed to Helio ($99unlimited) and changed back recently to Tmo since I had my son on it (myfaves). We could both have unlimited for $149 a month. Which is what I was paying for 2 separate phones and he only got 300min a month. Anywho...I've had it for 2 weeks now and I can't stand it. I drop calls all the time, my gps doesn't always work and my emails don't look like actual emails since Tmo doesn't really have a web browser. Giving it until Sunday. I have 20 days to cancel! Okay...sorry I just hijacked your thread!

Ha! You didn't threadjack! I usually love T-Mo, but I don't know what the heck is going on lately! I would love to say I hope your service gets better, but I doubt it will.

You should really complain Tmob. will give you a discount. My FI use to have Tmob and did not get svc at his house so they cut his bill in 1/2.
