T-Mobile Review Summary

Our reviewers have given T-Mobile solid marks as a cell phone provider. One of the primary reasons for this is that the pricing is fair and there are perks to being a customer for a certain period of time. One reviewer remarks “I would not change my cell phone service provider for any reason.” Of course, customer service can only get you so far, what about overall quality? “I haven’t yet experienced a dropped call or a problem making a call” says one happy customer. Not so fast, though, some reviewers have reported that in some places they have hit dead spots, which leads us to the primary complaint; T-Mobile needs more coverage. Still want to look around? We’ve got reviews of many more cell phone service providers.

  I can not say enough great things about T Mobile customer service....that is the main reason I stay with this cell phone provider.  Every problem (there have been only a few) has been handled in a friendly, professional and courteous manner.  They will take as much time as needed… read full review »

After 7 years of $100 a month for 800 minutes at Verizon, I finally got out and got a To Go plan with TMobile.  I was given a free Nokia 2160 with carrier, charger, an refused  d headset.  I had my phone number transferred from Verizon to TMobile.  But Verizon refused to release it. So TMobile put on the boxing gloves & got it moved.  So now I was a TMobile customer & learned that $100 gets me 1200 minutes that are good for a year.  I am then termed a GOLD MEMBER who gets 15% additional minutes to any future purchase of minutes.  So I returned to pick… read full review »

As with every cell phone carrier, a times comes when you must talk to customer service for whatever reason. I've had service with T-Mobile since 2002 and I cannot tell you how much I actually look forward to speaking with their customer service. Every time I've had an issue, it has been solved, to my satisfaction. They are always friendly, and appear to really enjoy their jobs. Whoever does their training should offer their services and expertise to other companies. If there have been mistakes on billing, they have promptly taken care of the issue or explained to me, in a tone and manner that… read full review »

T.Mobile has proved itself to be top-notch as far as i am concerned. After using some of the other serices, this one's plan 1500 minutes for $39.99 a month is great. After a year or so (not sure which) you go on a month to month basis...far different from other plans. — Further, you have LD service all over the USA. — — Verizon, a former carrier I used, told me I would have free LD service from Hawaii. When in Hawaii I used the phone to call all over the USA. They charged me roaming!  I had to go through a lot of phone calls, name remembrances of people who had given… read full review »

I have to say I have used AT&T, Sprint and Cingular and I have never had better service.  I have been with them for 7 years now and I hope they never go away.  They work things out with you when you have a problem and best of all they admit when they make a mistake....AND guess what else?!  They fix it! —  That is right a company that actually fixes mistakes they make.  — Also the price is good, compairs to the rest of the companies. — GO T MOBILE —… read full review »

After a very bogus 7 years with Verizon & getting out of the contract which I never actually added any future years.  But when you get the new phone after 2 years, they have you extended for 2 more. So we stated NO MORE CONTRACTS!  So we shopped & got all kinds of come & get its but show up & the stories all change.  ATT/Cingular has ads going with Yahoo DSL, U-Verse cable or Dish Network, and home phone service and get a $350 CASHBACK.  But you have to buy everything for plenty.  Their cell turned me off with the $1 a day charge to use the phone… read full 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… read full review »

From the beginning we could not get a signal where we live, rural area, which I am a stay at home mom with disabilites & if I need to get ahold of my husband for an emergency the cell phone is my life saver.  I tried to return the phone & not keep the contract and with only having so many days to return it, time ran out because they were trying everything NOT to have me return it, making excuses to try this try that.   They did finally send a return slip but it was already past the so many days of being able to return them. Therefore we got stuck in a 2 year… read full review »

T-mobile has been my only cellular company that I have been with and I would not change it.  I actually got my husband switched over from Centennial and we were paying as much for the two of us cheaper than his usual Centennial bill.  So it was already a great deal! — The only problem that I have had with them is that when I moved, my phone longer worked in the area because it had the wrong frequency in the phone.  Then I had no phone service, but still paid for my monthly bills. — But as soon as I got a hold of customer service, they gave me a few options of what… read full review »

When my son convinced me to sign up for Flex-Fay and My Faves, I thought I was doing the right thing.  I was misled from the get-go at the corporate store neat my home.  I certainly did not get what I was promised.  Instead, I got stuck with a phone that has numerous glitches, a Samsung 1219 and service that works when it wants to.  I get static both from the network during calls and their excuse for customer care when I try to resolve the many service issues I have encountered.  Frequently- at least once a day, I have no signal at all, even when I'm standing… read full review »

i went into the cell phone thing knowing nothing about it...i chose t-mobile because of the cost of the phone.  i started out with a pre-paid account..about two months after i bought the phone, hurricane katrina roared ashore in my home state of mississippi...leveling much of it in the process.  our home in ocean springs was completely destroyed. it was about two days after the storm that i turned my phone on (in the shelter that had become our home) and low and behold---i had minutes!!!!  for some three months after the storm i did not have to worry about buying… read full review »

I have had T-Mobile for over a year and a half now and can say I have been content with my service. It was a little rocky in the beginning because I got my phone through an authorized dealer and not a T-Mobile store. After everything was cleared up, I started to really enjoy my service. I rarely have dropped calls, if any. The phone selection is awesome and I have appreciated all of the phones I have had. I am not a very lucky person when it comes to phones and I tend to drop them constantly. Their Motorola phones are very durable and I wouldn't get another brand as long as I have T-Mobile.… read full review »

I have been with T-Mobile for a little over a year now. They were the best deal for my deposit and that is honestly why i chose them. Everytime i call into customer care they have been wonderful to work with, friendly, and have answered all my questions to the extent in which i have needed. The only problem i have really had is when i bought my phone i lived in Oregon, which has amazing service. Now i live in Louisiana, and if you dont live in a large city (which i dont) like New Oreleans, then you dont have have service on their towers anymore. If you are lucky you can pick up another… read full review »

i just thought that i would write about T-MOBILE cell phones! — i think tmobile will give anyone a chance with a cell phone, unlike all these other brands out there that want hundreds of dollars to open and account with them.. — i tried to get sprint and they wanted a 250 deposit per phone i was gonna get, but with tmobile they gave me service with a spendin limit and if i dont go over that limit my phone will never be shut off! — thats all and i hope who ever reads this has a great day and a great wknd to come —… read full review »

i really like this service, and i have tried several.  i get service just about every where.  customer service is always willing to help you.  the one thing i would change would be that my minutes roll over.  when you have the t mobil to go plan, they roll over, but not on a monthly plan and i wish they did.  the price i pay isn't bad when you break it… read full review »
