T-Mobile Anyone?

Razr v3t

So, after moving my line to Sprint, my bill on T-Mobile has dropped from $150 to $90. Not too bad considering Sprint is only costing me $30. Unfortunately I was unable to swap contracts at T-Mobile which leaves me with a line of service I won’t be using. Having an extra phone on a family plan only costs $10 a month, vs paying $200 for breaking the contract. So, my offer is this: If anyone has been curious about trying T-Mobile or wants to see how the coverage is where they live/work, let me know. You can borrow this phone if you want. It’s the one pictured above, Moto Razr V3T. And just to make me feel worse for leaving… they gave me a really sweet phone number!

Centro Case (Cheap!)

Filed under: Gadgets, Reviews, Mobile, Sprint — Ryan @ 9:45 pm

I was lucky enough to find a case for my centro this past weekend. Unfortunately it’s not available online, but at Target stores. There is a product locator that should tell you if it’s in stock.

Moda Casi at Target.com

And for my friends at TreoCentral, here are some close up pics. Way more pics than an $8 case deserves :)

T-Mobile helps me avoid ETF

T-Mobile
Now here is an example of why T-Mobile has the highest ranked customer service. Bear with me while I explain the situation. I have 3 phones on a family plan on T-Mobile. One of them is free of contracts, and the other two have a year left. I’m moving one of the contracted numbers to Sprint. I have no interest in canceling the account, but I do want to take my number. Before I call, I’m trying to think of ways to do this without triggering an Early Termination Fee. Possibly move contracts between lines, maybe swap numbers with Sprint, I dont know. I call them and tell the CSR flat out what I’m doing and why I’m trying to do this. I say, well honestly I’m moving this line to Sprint and I want to avoid paying an ETF ($200). She goes out of her way to outline all the steps I’d need to do so that I can avoid the fee and keep all my numbers. I was pleasantly surprised and I have my plan laid out in front me. When T-Mobile has their high speed network up and running, i’ll come running back!
