The CWA would support this if T-Mobile had joined their corrupt union. Dont buy anything they say.

Verizon and ATT are allowed to own multiples, there is no reason T-Mobile shouldn't.

are they removable? Samsung phones are crippled by this garbage and it has gotten worse over the last few generations... This is why i switched to the z2 Force and i couldn't be more happy with it.

If you think Apple is any different you are seriously misguided. But if it makes you feel better, keep believing that. Its best to just assume anything you do on your phone can be compromised.

The fact that he even considered lowering the broadband definition speaks to his motivations. Such a decision would have been entirely a political move designed to only let internet providers make claims they do not deserve and make it look like progress. we need REAL INTERNET INFRASTRUCTURE UPGRADES, and NOT political manipulation.

Apple slow down your phone and hides it, and then they ask you to pay them to replace the battery which they say is the only reason they slow your phone down(when in reality this is programmed obsolescence). Dont buy this nonsense and consider a non-Apple phone next time around.

Hell yes it is. They will act like its perfectly normal and their fanboys will find a way to justify it, but the fact is this is wrong. They have to find some way to make their new phones seem better, otherwise people might realize its the same phone as the last one.

I believe this could still happen. I also believe that thinking forward to Layer3's type of delivery method will pay off. If a merger does happen with Dish, im sure the Sat dish service will still exist but primary focus will be on the Sling service and its added benefits. You hit the nail on the head with all that spectrum though. It could become very valuable when 5g when it is finally defined and rolled out. All these ...

T-Mobile advertising is transparent and you get what is promised. The customer plays a huge part in the 'timely' aspect of the etf reimbursement and if they don't get the right documents in, that's on them.

You have to remember, the point is to lower usage and allow you more video streaming so although YouTube is not a part of BingeOn, watching it optimized will allow your data to last 3 times as long. At the end of the day, there is no argument because IT CAN BE DISABLED ANY TIME.

All true. There are no fees other than what you owe on the phone you promised to pay for. It's a loan, not a service agreement. Ignorant fools wasting time going after a company who is changing the industry for the better every day. Oh and when you stop paying your bills, YOU GO TO COLLECTIONS regardless of race.

You should also know that deprioritization only happens to a small amount of people in busy /congested areas. It's unlikely you would ever see it happen even with high usage.

I don't understand why a company who is struggling to get market share with their mobile OS would limit the sale of a FLAGSHIP phone to a single carrier even for a short period of time. Initial release is vital to a phone's success. I will be very disappointed if this turns out to be true.

That is right! Even if T-Mobile is allowed to pick up a large portion, they will simply be evening things out by allowing it. ATT and Verizon have a TON of spectrum and Sprint is sitting on a sizable amount as well. Go T-Mobile!

They should have thought about this when they set the rules. They can't decide after the fact that it wasn't kosher and make them pay. Besides, whatever keeps the spectrum out of the hands of Verizon and Att is fine by me.

Well said. Is funny how he wants to talk about T-Mobile's lease being deceptive when everything is completely clear including the fact that the $16 phones are a special. He is basically complaining that they are giving customers a deal... People need to realize that the days of phone subsidy are over. You pay for the phone you want bottom line and T-Mobile doesn't hide this like the others. The lease is just one more option ...

You are correct, no doubt about it. BUT, if the smaller 2 carriers are going to compete and be profitable, this change has to take place. Right now T-Mobile is in talks with Dish on a possible merger which would help, but if things are really going to change, all the carriers are going to need to have similar levels of access available to wireless resources. We have all experienced the type of customer abuses that came along with ...
