Re: I live in a major metropolitan area - why do I only get two bars at best??
My phone is a year old, the technology in it is probably two years old. It's fine with LTE, just missed the 5G train. The coverage in Saint Paul is supposed to be excellent, but it has never been. I'm not going to buy a new phone just to find out that T-mobile's questionable network connectivity isn't any better with 5G, but I think I will finally move on after 23 years. There's no excuse I have heard or I can imagine that explains it. It's been probably 15 phones I've had and as long as I use wifi calling, it's fine, but I should be able to rely on the cellular network in a metropolitan area like the Twin Cities if I need to.63Views0likes0CommentsRe: I live in a major metropolitan area - why do I only get two bars at best??
"If its been like this for years..why are you still here?" -Not a productive question. Antagonistic for someone who says they're here to help. I'm sure it wasn't meant to be. Anyway, for years I've had unlimited Wi-Fi, and WiFi calling picked up the slack. Now my WiFi is metered, so I don't use that anymore. "and are there any other TMO phones around you? and are they running into the same thing or no?" -There are other T-Mobile phones, many others in my area, and I haven't asked anyone specifically about their signal at my locations, but generally speaking, I hear a lot of complaining about the world's best network… I have a Moto G Power.59Views0likes0CommentsI live in a major metropolitan area - why do I only get two bars at best??
When I don’t have Wi-fi calling enabled, calls cut out and drop constantly and I can only get one or two bars of cellular service. I live in a city. What’s the problem? Then my battery gets eaten up fast because it’s always trying to find a better network. You guys boast about your coverage, but I’m about to throw in the towel on this 20 year relationship we have because your coverage still sucks. I keep expecting that it will get better; it has to. It doesn’t. Wi-fi calling bought you some time, but Xfinity caps our Wi-Fi and I don’t want to use it for calling anymore, so I have to deal with calls like I’m living in the 1990s again. Seriously, what’s the deal?792Views0likes8Comments
