T-Mobile Downloaded Crapware
I closed all my applications before I went to bed last night. I woke up in the morning and had two notifications from T-mobile. The first one listed a bunch of applications it had installed and the second wanted me to restart my phone to finish the install. I immediately deleted all of the apps, which were (as I best recall) CandyCrush, T*mu, and three other games that I've never heard of. I called and talked with a representative who said this was "alarming." He said he was checking the security features on my phone and resetting some things and the call dropped (as usual). I have Malware Bytes running all the time and I ran a new scan after restarting my phone. Anyone else getting this junk from T-Mobile? A week or so ago, I had installed T-Mobile's new app but immediately deleted it as it wants permissions to everything. I'm really particular about what apps I download and always check the country of origin, permissions, encryption, and privacy policy first. I use advanced credentials on all my accounts, 2FA everywhere I can, and security keys. What's going on?!
Extremely Helpful
My husband and I just switched to T-Mobile internet and phone from Seaford, DE store. Cristy went above and beyond the call of duty to get me switched over from Comcast. It was so nice to do it face to face, instead of either receiving a menu or having to talk with a person whose first language is not English over the phone. She not only took the time to repeat the information several times but gave me notes to use for later. We are over 70 and are not ignorant but are not tech savvy. It can be very stressful learning all new information but Cristy and Earl helped with that transition. Thanks, JoAnne & Mike B.Advanced/Power User Network Settings
Hey everyone, I wanted to bring up an issue I’ve been thinking about regarding T-Mobile’s internet routers. Currently, these routers are fairly locked down, and while I understand the need for security and simplicity, I think there should be some sort of power user mode for those who need advanced networking features. I am an Information Technology specialist, and even I don’t have access to certain features that would significantly improve the stability and communication of my network. Even if it requires going through an approval process, it would be great to have access to more detailed settings, such as advanced port forwarding, QoS customization, or even deeper network configuration options. Many users, including myself, would benefit from this level of control without having to rely on third-party equipment. I’m curious if others feel the same way. If you agree, let’s make some noise and get T-Mobile’s attention on this! Also, if anyone has found workarounds or alternative solutions, I’d love to hear about them. Looking forward to any thoughts or shared experiences. Thanks!
Webex work app won't work with home internet
I work remotely two days a week and we take calls through an app called webex so it doesn't connect to our personal cell phone number, I have tried many things to get it to work without even being connected to the internet and it won't work. I've even uninstalled the app and reinstalled it. I had read on google that the t mobile home internet has issues with VPN or Voip and won't work due to packet loss and i'm not sure what that means. Has anyone had any issues with a problem like this? and what did you do to make it work. I also believe it is the internet because the app was working just fine before with my other home internet provider. Thanks for the feedback.
Concern Regarding Customer Service and Plan Support
Dear T-Mobile Customer Relations, I am writing to formally express my dissatisfaction with the recent experience I had with your customer service team, as well as with the current handling of legacy plans. As a long-standing customer, I have appreciated T-Mobile’s services over the years. However, it has become increasingly clear that existing customers on older plans are being deprioritized in favor of newer, more expensive plans. I was informed that promotions and certain account services are no longer available to customers like myself because our plans are “no longer supported.” This approach is both disappointing and concerning, as it appears to encourage long-term customers to leave rather than be valued. To make matters worse, when I contacted customer support to inquire further, I was met with an extremely unprofessional response. I spoke with a supervisor named Steve (Employee ID: 2606928), who was dismissive and unhelpful. When I asked to speak to someone above him or to be connected with a customer resolution team, he stated that he worked for the corporate office and there was no one above him. He then proceeded to suggest I could cancel my account if I was unhappy — a completely inappropriate and unacceptable response to a customer seeking help. I am disappointed by the lack of courtesy, support, and professionalism displayed. I am bringing this to your attention in hopes that T-Mobile addresses the treatment of loyal customers and enforces higher standards of customer service. I would appreciate it if this matter could be escalated and reviewed. I am open to discussing this further and hope to reach a resolution that reflects the values and service T-Mobile claims to uphold. Sincerely, Joseph5G(arbage) internet
I got sucked into the 5g internet after having horrid experience with overpriced AT&T. I live 80 feet from the TMobile cell in an urban area. I've had repeated loss of signal and buffering since Dec '24. I recently replaced the Gateway (to hell) and still suffer from the same issues. And after pointing the Gateway directly at the cell tower by tech insisting this will resolve signal issues. Anyone stating they haven't had issues must be a paid employee of T-MOBILE posting to keep their job or bucking for promotion to store assistant manager.
Disable personal hotspot on iPhone
I am looking to remove the personal hotspot feature on my child’s phone. There is a setting on the phone to turn it off but he can just turn it back on and use it whenever. When we had Verizon we called and they placed a block that didn’t allow him to even see it in settings. I tried calling T-Mobile support but they said that can’t do it. Can we do the same thing with T-Mobile?
