My Speed Check doesn't have ads. Also mine is from a finished check not a screen shot during the test. Check the finished test to see how it shows.

This better? There are so many factors like I said earlier. This is peak time where I live. In some parts I rarely trave it’ll drop down to a few hundred, but overall service is good.
Go with what works in your area. Cheaper doesn’t always mean better. Carriers can’t just snap their fingers and boom a new tower, or more bandwidth. There is so many variables down to the neighborhood board blocking towers from being built.

This is true in many different ways. I have a Samsung S21, iPhone 12/13 and Moto edge 2022 5G.
In some places where T-Mobile claims 5G + 4G LTE , where it is ‘weak’ according to T-Mobile, I get ‘No Service’ on S21 and iPhone 12/13 but get service of -126dBm to -140dBm on Motorola edge 2022.
S21 / iPhone 12/13 will attempt quickly to roam on AT&T/Verizon with ‘Emergency SoS’ only.

Your signal strength is also impacted by your mobile phone. I have the latest iPhone 14 Pro and where T-Mobile has coverage it works very well, but there are dead spots where it doesn’t matter which phone you have. Many people have older phones, more than two years old, and many of these phones do not support all of the newer bands that T-Mobile implemented after the merger with Sprint.

Well then I guess they shouldn't legally be able to sell there service in FL! My parents are old now, I just hope 1 day they don't have a medical emergency, and can't even call to get help! Phone service is hit and miss at best also!
911 on a landline works regardless if you have service or not. E-911 also connects a call on the strongest signal in the area even if it isn’t T-Mobile, and that is the service you have.

Sounds like you need to try out AT&T or Verizon in your area. Every carrier over hypes their coverage. When traveling through central FL from St. Augustine through Palatka and Salt Springs to Ocala (eventually Tampa), service had large gaps of ‘No Service’ (roaming on VZ). Maps pretty much show this. Similar with Alligator Alley.
This is a community forum. I’d recommend that you speak to CS through 611, T-Mobile app, Twitter or Facebook for any resolution.
