T-Mobile Review

Years ago, I had Verizon.  And I had no problems with them.  Then I got hit with a double whammy; bankruptcy after the divorce, and medical problems that kept me from driving a truck.  My Verizon bill was paid up-to-date, but, I declared bankruptcy.  I switched over to a "pay as you go" plan with Verizon.  That was OK, but I got charged even if I connected to an answering machine! (Less than one minute but charged for two.) Later, when my disability checks started to come in, I asked Verizon for a credit plan again.  NOPE!  Shot down.

T-Mobile was advertising heavily in the St. Louis area.  So, off I went to one of their stores.  Within 5 minutes I was approved and had a new phone for FREE.  With Verizon, if I wanted a new phone, I had to pay LIST PRICE!

I currently have a SAMSUNG T319.  They tossed in a free carrying case, a free home charger & car charger.  Granted it's not the most advanced phone in the world, but I'm a dinosaur.  I just want to talk.  It does take photos, but not that good.  Nobody gave me a hard time when I went with the cheapest plan they have; $30 a month plus taxes.

Granted, I don't travel much outside St. Louis anymore, but I've never had a dropped call.  Every carrier has 'weak spots'.  But, so far...so good with T-Mobile.
