Jumped Ship

[Hot94Z28]

Hey guys I have to say farewell. I was with T-mobile for 10 years(since they were areal in my area). I went to Verizon and so far happy with there service. I could not get service in my new house and lack of 3G I made the choice to leave.

Welcome to Big Red!

I've thought about making the jump. Verizon does have great coverage. How do the plans compare.

1.) Brand new poster. Probably a Verizon employee.

2.) Doesn't say where he/she lives. How convienent.

3.) Plans? He/she is now paying twice as much as before.

Great move. Verizon isn't a bad company but with less than 10 posts, I doubt the first thing I'd do is rush to CrackBerry to post about switching. Again, probably a bored Verizon employee who is tired of losing customers to T-Mobile.

I only have one thing to say about this thread: YAWN.

I agree. Big yawn.

Well I live in Lexington Mo. I was paying $155 a month for my two BB's with T-mobile was a happy customer till I moved to my new house about two months ago.

I have not got my first bill but should be about $20-$40 more a month. To me that is worth having coverage around my area were I have not. I don't know why but seems the last year or so the coverage has been worse around here. All of my family have been complaining also.

I will say the did have excellent customer service. Also to those why are bored with my thread you don't have to read it. And sorry I'm not a post *****.

In your other posts you claim that Verizon and AT&T had horrible service in your area. Now your story has changed.

When did you start the new job with Verizon Wireless?

I moved and don't get a signal at the new place. I have uma, so at least i have that going for me. I was originally on Verizon, but that didn't get a signal at work. No uma there and T-Mobile has been too good to me to switch.

I dont work for Verizon. I actually work for a ammunition factory providing ammo for are troops.

They use to get [b][/b][b][/b][b][/b][b][/b]ty service here just a couple years ago. But then my boss came down to see my house and he has Verizon and had service in my house and I didn't.

You could have easily fixed that by using T-Mobile's UMA service which would have totally smoked your boss' Verizon service in your house.

Now you are paying more and getting less. Appears to be kind of a bomb to me (excuse the pun but I couldn't resist). LOL.

If you still have time left before your trial period ends, I'd go back and cancel the Verizon service, call T-Mobile and beg for forgiveness and get a UMA phone.

I had the 8900 curve so I had UMA. How am I saving money with T-mobile when I have to pay for the internet service to use UMA. Also I live outside of town so I use a company called turbo net and pay $50 a month for internet.

Not sure what you don't understand. T-Mobile's prices are less than Verizon's. By using your 8900, you should have been able to use your UMA and gotten crystal clear calls in your home.

I lived in a home for a year with no cell tower coverage for any carrier and had perfect cell phone performance with T-Mobile's UMA.

Seems to me all you've accomplished is increasing your cell phone bill by "jumping ship" to Verizon.

When I used my UMA was not clear at all. It might be because of my internet? But I was paying $155 a month for hardly any service.

Dude the time to ask for help on UMA diagnostics was before you "jumped ship." What's the point now? All I can tell you is I was in a worse situation than you. I lived in a home in a mountain range with Z E R O cell tower coverage and used T-Mobile UMA and got perfect mobile service.

I haven't had landline phone service since 2000.

You've "jumped ship" and you are paying more for Verizon. Not sure what else can be accomplished here.

By the way, if that Verizon service doesn't work out for you, you'll now be paying a $350 ETF penalty. Hope it's worth it for all that jumping ship stuff and that you don't get wet.

Jumped from T-Mobile to Verizon a while ago. Welcome! I enjoy their service and it's more reliable in my area than T-Mobile is. T-Mobile service is still great, just not for me. Have fun with VZW!
