T-Mobile is absolutely terrible and I miss sprint. I believe whomever it is u get when u call customer service are messing with people's phone lines and networks. I never had one problem with sprint but now I don't receive any of calls or texts and always saying I have no network connection when. I have full bars and watching youtube. Something isn't right and someone bigger than us little customers need to investigate this thoroughly

    Anonymous , 04 Mar 2021T-Mobile is advertising a Magenta Unlimited 55 plan for $35... moreAre you sure taxes and fees are included? Those are variables that occasionally change, so I doubt that it really is included.

      I should have known t-mobile would be terrible. When we went to the store to see about a plan, the folks there were the single rudest and least professional retail workers we have ever encountered and that is going very far. Then, in the two months in which we have had their so-called "service" we have received 4 bills, but no help trying to figure out why we (A) keep losing service; (B) Why connections are so very poor and (C) What it takes to get some type of response from the company. They really are a terrible company and their coverage is about the worst I've seen. I'm heading back to Verizon. They may be slightly more money, but at least they are (A) friendly and professional and most important (B) their coverage is good around where we live and work.

          Tmobile is able to use state of the art technology to place dial-up speeds at the tip of my fingers.

              T mobile just hijacked my phones that I own. I have been trying to cut off my service since the middle of April! I had the phones cut off yesterday at the store, and by 7pm after having a new carrier put a sim card in, the Tmobile highjacked my account and put a "stolen report on it". I had to go back into the new carrier today and purchase a new phone because Tmobile is being treacherous and I cant trade in phones(that I own) to a new carrier with that tag on them..

                  I’m a sprint customer but the T-Mobile guy tried switching up my plans after I told him not to, I had to then speak to several reps to get it switched back to my old sprint plans and discounts which I’m not sure they are all accurate until I see a complete bill. Then the T-Mobile guy swapped out our SIM cards to T-Mobile which now my service is horrible slow networks speeds and dropped calls, unclear call quality while in a call in my vehicle. The T-Mobile experience plain sucks!

                      I've had t-mobile for 3 weeks and I absolutely hate everything about their service with the exception of one nice chat agent who was kind. I cannot text the other person on my line. I cannot receive verification texts. They told me I could retain my old number but failed to disclose its thru a digits app that is costing an extra $10 a month and I have to utilize that specific app instead of this $900 phone messaging app I'm paying for. T-mobile is an absolute joke. I will switch away as soon as I possibly can.

                        Was at Walmart to buy a new SIM card for my unblocked phone. The clerk suggested TMobile/Sprint. However, in checking the IMEI number (to confirm the phone was not blocked) TMobile ran a credit check! This was totally unauthorized. If the phone was not accepted on their network, I could stop at that point in the process and did walking out of the store. Two weeks later, I get a credit application denial! Bastards. Do not trust TMobile/Spint.

                            When switching from T-Mobile, they billed me for a whole month even thought I switched 4 days into my billing cycle. When I called to complain, they threatened my credit rating if I didn't pay them. T-mobile is run by thieves. Never forget what you are signing up for.
