Did Tmobile just pass Spinxtel?

😲 Ohh big man, you know that we have the same amount of towers as vzw and unfourtunatley cing lies about thier network, there is no way you can tell me they have 240 million subscribers as they advertise!!
240 milllion POPs. That's potential subscribers. Meaning Cingular's network covers 240 million people living and working within the US, not that they have 240 million actual subscribers.
Every company advertises POPs, and there's no lying involved. That is what you would call illegal.
POPS= persons of population (POPs) within their reach. potential customers.
sprint leads in; 1. arpu; 2. data arpu. 3. total subscribers on the network. 4. net adds per year and quarter.

T-mobile doesnt lead against Sprint/nextel. i dont think they even lead sprint/nextel in prepaid and that is their strong suit. (t-mobile's i mean)

Even so, Tmobile still passed them and now are the 3rd wireless carrier in the US. (behind VZW)
Shame on Sprixtel!
Sorry Nextel18.. 😢
but that isnt true that tmobile has more subscribers then sprint/nextel. maybe individually like tmobile against spritn or tmobile against nextel, but not combined.
(people are very vague on here and they dont explain themselves.)

That's how they passed Sprextel!!!
How do I make it any clearer for you?
can you show a link to this?
i'm guessing phonescoops places the carriers icons in order from customer count highest to lowest. t-mobile was 4th now they are 3rd. i guess their customer count is now higherthan that of sprint.
Sprint and Nextel are still too different carriers
I think of it this way : Sprint just owns the rights to Nextel until they want to shut down the consumer iDen network!
So they should be listed as separate and therefore t-mobile has more subscribers.
Another example: I don't think Cingular, after purchasing ATT Wireless, ever said " Cingular Wireless together with ATT Wireless" They became the same company!
