Tmobile experiences in NOVA/DC?

I'm thinking about switching to Tmobile, how is their coverage in the area? Internet speeds don't matter as much as good reception for me.

Doesn't work on Lawyers Rd or in any Home Depot.

Other than that it sucks.

It actually works well, don't listen to him.

I have it for my personal cell because it's one of the cheapest, has GREAT CS, very good signal in general second best to VZW in the area.

Honestly go with any carrier except ATT/Cingular.

Tmobile has the best rates which makes it hard to beat.

It honestly deserves the best ratings in all the normal categories, except that VZW does beat them in signal strength, as I mentioned earlier.

So it's either you get terrible CS, unbeatable signal strength, and sky-high prices with VZW, or pay much less and have comparable signal from TMO. Your call, just like to give the real deal.

TMobile has great rates, but their coverage is awful. Heck, I'll sell you mobile phone "Service" for just $10 a month using the network that exists only in my head, and you'll only have slightly worse coverage than you get with TMobile.

How much did each carrier pay per spot?

+1

AT&T is among the best in 3 of 4 categories, and Verizon never makes the list?

BS.

I have T-Mobile, and I've been trying to figure out if my problem is with them, or with my Samsung phone. I go from four bars to ZERO without moving the phone several times per hour on Edsall Rd, not far from 395.
