| |  Looking to switch to TMO...
Hey guys and gals,
I am looking to switch to TMO from Verizon. I can get basically the same plan for about $30 less a month with TMO. I went in today and got a prepaid SIM to test network coverage and so far so good. The coverage map shows good coverage everywhere I usually roam around, not to mention the two places I spend the majority of my time I would be using UMA. Any advise or anything in general I should know? Most likely will be bringing 4 more BB users with me, can I get that $25 discount for each of the 4?  Thanks in advance for any advise or help!

Are they going to be on a family plan with you?
Unless it's unlimited, family plans include the first 2 people and then it's 9.99/month per line added to it. You share minutes and text but you add data packages separately.
I really like T-Mobile and if you switch phones a lot, I think you'll like the flexibility of GSM. UMA can't be beat either!

I switch phones on a regular basis so I will be loving the GSM network. UMA is a big draw for my sister and her family as they virtually live in an RF black hole. Quote:

Is the BOGO in effect for the Even More Plus plans? | Even More Plus plans do not have subsidies for their phones. You forfeit that options for the lower rates per month.

I read somewhere that being on a 2 year contract afforded you the privilege of upgrading phones every year, it that true?

Yeah, Smartphone users can get a good discount every year on a new handset and contract, all to reduce churn and keep us customers that don't mind paying extra for a data package and stuff

This plus the cheaper rates than VZW and UMA have made my decision for me!

You will enjoy. I wasn't happy that the price of my plans went up a bit, and I had to add the BB package to my wife's line, but I'm still saving money over going anywhere else. And T*Mo has been great for me for (I believe) 7 years now.

| |  TMO plans
I've been with them for over 2 yrs. now with little problem. Just upgraded to a family unlimited plan on 2 lines and got a third at 200 min./month for $10 more. Added a BB data plan and the whole thing costs only $115/month. I'm happy, unless somebody tells me I could do better. Oh yeah, no contract either, but I didn't upgrade any phones either.

Well I did it, ordered a Bold 9700 for myself and a white Curve 8520 for the little lady (yes I gave her a choice). I ordered from Cell Phones for free with Cell Phone Plans from AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, Verizon Wireless and got the Bold for $50 and the Curve free. I placed my order with them at 0300 this morning and just received confirmation that my credit check went through. I can't wait to get my hands on the 9700 tomorrow!! Thanks everyone for the advise and I look forward to contributing to this particular forum!
