[QUOTE="SoonerP226, post: 3956965, member: 26737"] I'm a T-Mobile customer by virtue of their purchase of Sprint. Sprint did some customer service-related things better, but I don't have much to complain about when it comes to T-Mobile. FWIW, no matter which carrier you choose, Sprint/T-Mobile, Verizon, and AT$T own the towers and the spectrum licenses, so some of your money is going back to one (or all) of them even if you choose an MVNO (Mobile Virtual Network Operator--basically every cellular service provider that's not T-Mobile, Verizon, or AT$T) as your service provider. If you really want to minimize the money going to AT$T, check which networks an MVNO uses before you do business with them. A LOT of MVNOs used to ride on Sprint's network, but I don't know if that's still true post T-Mobile acquisition. As for Google Fi, I think the issues are more related to privacy than to anything technical. If you don't mind Google knowing everything you're doing, there's probably nothing wrong with using their service. [/QUOTE]
