Starting next month:


New promo plans:
T-Mobile: 1500 no n/w 39.99
T-Mobile 1500 + unlimited n/w 49.99

Compared To:

Cingular and Verizon: 1350 n/w/m2m 79.99

Is it me, or do I smell a victory for T-Mobile?

there is no buy out. T-Mobile USA is not for sale. DT isn't going to sell their American market when it is making them a lot of money.

Not necessarily, look at the fact that 40-50% of lottery winners go broke. More money doesn't equal more power if you don't know how to manage it.

Especially with Crapingular's customer service and they're 2yr agreements.
Then there is AT&T's horrible automated svc when you dial 611. The voice recognition on that thing seems like it was coded in the early 90's.

And by the way, how is Cingular's churn rate these days???

For Cingular's churn rates, ask Verizon and T-Mobile. They keep porting in dozens of Cingular numbers every day.

Actually, I googled for churn rates and got a bunch of old data.

Does anyone know of a website that lists current churn rates, number of customers etc... between the carriers?

Cingular's churn rate was doing a lot better than T-Mobile's as of the second quarter.

Cingular's churn rate was 2.2% versus T-Mobile's 2.8%. ๐Ÿ˜•

Why didn't you use the most recent data? Cingular's churn is 2.3%, and they only added 867,000 net subscribers. Let's see if T-Mobile adds more customers than Cingular this quarter ๐Ÿ™‚

It's rather hard to compare Cingular's Q3 data to T-Mobile's when T-Mobile's hasn't been released yet.

Churn is seasonal, so it's only fair to compare data from the same quarter. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Loll now that is true.. Many people do not seem to want to use the recent data or compare the more important data such as arpu, data arpu and net adds. Yes, churn is important but not as important as those metrics I just mentioned.

I think tmobile USA will beat out Cingularโ€™s net subscribers for the 3rd quarter because tmobile USA is not having problems like Cingular is facing now.

1. Cingular has released Q3 data but T-Mobile has not.
2. Churn is seasonal, so it's only fair to compare each company's data from the same quarter.
3. I guarantee you T-Mobile's churn will still be higher than Cingular's when they release their Q3 results.
4. I was comparing churn rates because that is what the poster was questioning.

Get a life.
