What's with Tmobile and their pink theme???

[deevel79]

I was contemplating switching over to Tmobile, but when I logged onto thier site, it struck me as weird how the home page was predominantly pink! It felt as if I was on a cell phone providers site that catered to high school girly girls. I know I may recieve some flack for this, but you have to admit that its a bit odd.

Now I like thier selection of phones, and they always seem to get the new phones first. Even before my current provider (Verizon). Problem is, in my office building, there is absolutely ZERO signal strength for tmobile phones. All u get is an "sos". That to me is unnacceptable.

I've often wondered the same. Each major carrier kind of has their own color theme. Verizon is red obviously, At&t is blue, and Sprint is yellow. You'll save a lot more with T-Mobile. I'm not sure if you knew this but if you have no service in your office building you can connect through Wi-fi and all your calls with go through wi-fi boosting your signal. You should look into UMA. When I had my Curve 8900 it worked wonders lol. If you are still serious as to switching to T-Mobile I would thoroughly check their coverage maps just to be safe.

Unfortunately my building doesnt have any wifi access do to security measures. Wish it did though. If I had coverage at my workplace and/when Tmobile started carrying the Nexus S, I would definitely had made the switch.

That is just tmobile's color theme. I never paid much attention, although I hate pink.

My guess is that with your reception issues and lack of wifi at work, tmo isn't a good carrier for you so you won't have to worry about the "girly" colors for much longer.

Magenta is T-Mobile's signature color, your manhood seems to be shaken by that. It really doesn't matter nor is the webpage entirely magenta like you say it is.

Not quite sure what you mean by your post?

If the reception is not at your work SOS and UNACCEPTABLE.... why were you looking at the sight and thinking you might switch


On another note.... advertising is all about people noticing your product and remembering.Obviously it's working.
Kinda like that horrible Docker pants commercial that I will always remember as idiotic.... And yet always remember

Me thinks the OP needs to find a carrier that has better reception where he lives and won't insult his masculinity.
