T-Mobile: Having iPhone not worth all the sacrifices

article published on 21 November, 2012

Adding the iPhone to their device portfolio would force the carrier to make major sacrifices, says a T-Mobile executive. Having the iPhone would likely lead to a decent boost in customers for the struggling carrier, which offers the best prices on monthly plans. "Make no mistake about it: We would love to carry the iPhone. However, we want the economies to be right for us," added Jim ... [ read the full article ]

If T-Mobile wants customers, maybe they shouldn't be trying so hard to get rid of their customers.

I've been a T-Mobile customer since 2005 and I could care less about the iPhone.

I put my S3 next to an iPhone and couldn't believe how tiny the iPhone screen is. What a joke.

I have been a T-Mobile customer for over 4 years. I just renewed my contract with them in April. I got two Samsung Dart phones and both of them will not SCAN any code. My wife's phone drops a call because it does not go dark when she puts it up to her face. (this is her business phone)
This is less than half a phone. I plan to go to the local T-M store and shove the two phones up the poor innocent guy behind the counter's ass.. OH no I am not really going to do it. However, what I will do is speak to him and her in a very soft and very respectful tone. As the scene continues, I will gradually raise my voice until I get some reasonable satisfaction. If things don't get resolved in a reasonable way, I will tell them to delete my account and that if they punish me by charging me $200, I will have the local TV station there. I will post this every where I can. I am disabled and have all the time all day to post this everywhere. In addition, I will be writing to the press about this especially every tech site.
Thanks for allowing me to post this rant on this well known and read tech
site.

You bought cheap-azz garbage phones and you expect them to work well? LOL

I have a Galaxy S3 on TMO and I couldn't be happier. Best phone I've ever had and I've never had a single issue with it.

You get what you pay for.

I couldn't agree more. My S3 is hands down the best phone I've ever owned. Never heard of a Dart. Sounds cheap. I've been with TMO for 8 years and their customer service has gone down a bit but its that way with most companies I guess. As for the iPhone, I don't get what all the frenzy is about. Small screen. No replaceable battery and locked in to Apple's proprietary system.
