T-Mobile Gaffe
Alright I guess I spoke too much good too soon. I used to sing praises of T-Mobile on this forum until sometime back.
But now with the advent of Summer and leaves springing up on the trees - I have lost my signal - TOTALLY!
I have had TMo for 3 years now and this is the first time this has happened! Previous summers were much better and service had only been progressively getting better!

That would have been a swell solution if that were it! I would have never thought of that!!!
