I severed ties with them today, I had AT&T and they sucked, I wanted to stick with GSM so I could get uber phones but T-Mobile was worse then AT&T. Back to CDMA for me.

I won't miss the lack of reception seemingly everywhere important I would end up.
I won't miss the dropped calls
I won't miss people telling me they tried to call me and got a BUSY signal (on a cell phone wtf!?!) I've been told this by 4 different people, I'd imagine there were others I just didn't know about.
I won't miss having a signal, but still missing calls because my phone doesn't ring. And then getting the voice mail from a person who called and left a message at 5PM at 2AM.
I won't miss the monthly text message reminder from them that my bill is read. Which for some reason I would always get at 5AM on a Saturday.

I will miss the selection of handsets, but it just wasn't worth it. Thankfully I wasn't married to T-Mobile (contract) Flexpay for TEH WINS! I would have paid an ETF at this point, but the fact I don't have to is the one thing I like about them.

Yea Tmobile does suck. I have them as my personal phone and Sprint as my work phone. Tmobile always has stupid outages and other crap go wrong.

I got PagePlus today, Verizon network + super cheap rates = win! Although when I called to get my number ported I was on hold for about 40 minutes. I had to call back, and the 2nd call was about 25. I sure hope I don't have to call CS much lol.

I've heard CS calls are lengthy, but after you get set up, there's rarely a need to call them for anything.

Yeah, Verizon network means I shouldn't have any issues with call quality, for $40 a month out the door with unlimited minutes + unlimited txts I won't even mind if I gotta call them every once and again. Only getting 20 megs of data sucks, but for the price I can't complain. Just getting away from T-Mobile was all I cared about lol

GOOD RIDDANCE! With Straight Talk & PagePlus both having cheap unlimited plans on the Verizon network. I wonder if we'll see a low priced unlimited provider on GSM. I do miss the selection of phones GSM had and being able to pop out a sim card and use a different phone as I pleased.

I'm now 1 full day T-Mobile free, and MAAAAAN it feels good! I find it pretty hilarious that the dynamic ad at the bottom right now is a picture of Catherine Zeta Jones pushing T-Mobiles new Unlimited talk + text plan. Oh the irony.
