What Are You Doing Right Now
-
My phone keeps getting throttled down to 100kpbs with my Unlimited plan. Paid for a new month, it should be reset (even though I only used 195mb last month). Nope, still throttled. They still Say they aren't throttling. Might move to a different pre-paid AT&T based MVNO.

You know you have spent too much time in the ME games if you are looking for a little blue or red markers around things you are looking for..

@dominica just zapped herself on the wall socket. She just got to experience the extra voltage of the European power system.

They have the best coverage here besides Verizon, who I refuse to get. Partially because of the cost, and partially because it's CDMA.

T-Mobile leverages the AT&T network when they lack their own coverage.

Not with Prepaid it doesn't. I've tried t-mobile. almost no coverage here. I get GPRS/2G in some areas but in most it's nothing at all. Sprint actually has better coverage than T-Mobile does here.

Well now... That was a shocking experience!
-
Even what the map shows for the area. I had It sometimes in 2013 when I tried it.

Oh, no idea about prepaid. We love that they do iPad data for free and individual lines for just like $10/mo. So cheap! We are easily saving $200/mo compared to Verizon, which we switched from.
-
@scottalanmiller What company did you switch to? Verizon is great around here, but they are the most expensive... I don't mind paying a premium if I know my phone is going to work when I need it.
-
Dealing with fax issues! Gotta love technology!

I'm going to test Circket as it runs on AT&T LTE. $50/month ($45 with autopay discount) for unlimited talk/text and 5GB data at LTE speeds, throttled after than. $60/ ($55 with discount) month gets you 10GB data. and $40 ($35 with discount) gets you 1GB data.

T-Mobile. Saved a fortune and got better coverage in Dallas (where we lived when we switched) and NYC (where we moved to) and worlds better in Spain (where we are now.) Best move ever. Was with Verizon for 22 years on the same account and they treated us like garbage for being loyal. Left on principle but ended up getting a far better service at a fraction of the price.
Was a great move. We cut SO much off of the bill.
We saved money and got better coverage everywhere that we were. I used to stick with Verizon and pay more because of the better coverage over AT&T. But once Verizon had no coverage in Dallas, it was a no brainer to save a fortune.
-
Yeah... My phone bill is topping $200 a month for 2 phones and a tablet @ 3GB of data.
Before my Note 3, I had signal everywhere I went with Verizon (except for a few places)... But with this Note 3, I have no signal more often than I have a good signal, it seems. And now with this Lolipop update, I have to reboot the phone a couple of times a day for it to even process emails and such (even when connected to wireless!).
I mainly blame the phone, as I know other Verizon phones don't seem to usually have a signal, even when mine doesn't, lol..
I'm checking in with the locals to see how well T-Mobile works in this area. I've heard to stay away from Straight Talk & Cricket in this area.

I fussed at them for throttling me, and told them they could either refund the amount I paid on the last bill (as it's only be a few days in and I haven't used a single bit of it, as it doesn't work). or I would do a charge back. They said good luck. Hmm. One of them even went to look at my LinkedIn profile for some reason.

AT&T are not good people. I avoid them at all costs.

Sprint has the best customer service... to bad their coverage isn't too good.
