Why a Premier Sponsor would use Sprint coverage maps when they have access to S4GRU Site Acceptance maps is beyond me. Everyone knows that the Sprint LTE coverage maps are awful unless you zoom all t

Most time all new 8t8r sites average 45 55 mbps down and off peak early mornings and after midnight 95 to 115 mbps. Only thing late band 26 very bad sub 1.5mbps. So indoors not good at all. I see no new sites add or completed nv 1.0 only like 4 or 5 sites need backhaul mostly rural area.

Subsequently I actually have Boost Mobile now and I'm going down to Delaware very soon why 1415 weeks I really hope they improve the service in Rehoboth Beach... Does Rehoboth Beach at least have decent service

Don't think Sprint is ever going to have 4g in lower Cecil county just not needed, Verizon and AT&T are letting coverage slip down here also at one time I could pull 20 to 30 mbps I'm lucky if I pull 1 mbps now, it could be cell shrinkage.

What hell splash spending.most nv 1.0 done just need backhaul .

 

They aren't slashing NV 1.0 spending, which has already been financed. Sprint is pushing NGN (mass B41 small cell) back into their FY 2017, which doesn't align with the calendar year.

I wouldn't count on it. They are slashing spending on network vision...

That's not quite accurate. The reduced their expected CAPEX spending, which is generally a response to slower permitting progress on small cells. Marcelo also said that if they are able to kick up small cell / new macro deployment, CAPEX will increase accordingly.

So if they kick up their macro cell deployment the rest of network vision will complete?

That was not what my post was talking about. I was talking about new deployments. That is different funding than the network vision project, which is largely complete.

      Kind of amazing that T-Mobile is still holding onto that speed title despite Verizon all but killing off lowband 5G on their network. While Verizon is mostly being evaluated on mmWave and C-band performance, T-Mobile and AT&T's average 5G speeds include their massive lowband 5G networks that are significantly slower.

      Yup. Very true. We were originally on an Everything Data 1500 Plan, which got Unlimited Minutes thanks to Marcelo's "Loyalty Benefits" offer. We then switched to Unlimited Freedom (with the Free HD add-on that Sprint originally wanted $20/month per line for.... remember that?) because the pricing was better with "iPhone for Life", vs. the "Loyalty Credit" for staying on a Legacy Plan. After that, I ran the numbers and switched us over to Sprint MAX, especially for the international travel benefits. There's absolutely no reason for us to switch to Go5G Plus or Go5G Next if we're going to do BYOD by purchasing from Apple/Samsung/Google directly as we've been doing. These new plans aren't priced for current customers to switch to. They're priced for new customers, where they throw in a free line, etc. It's gone from "Uncarrier" to "Carrier". What a shame.

      Strange business model that they keep around all these pricing plans. 1000s of plans per carrier is reportedly not uncommon.  Training customer support must be a nightmare. Even MVNOs have legacy plans. A downside of their contract mentality I guess. Best to change contracts during a recession. But then all carriers try to squeeze out legacy plan benefits as they grow old.

      Everything "Uncarrier" is becoming "Carrier" again. Because of the Credit Limit that T-Mobile put on our account for no reason at all (and wouldn't change/update the last time I checked all the way up to the CEO), I don't plan on buying/upgrading our iPhones through T-Mobile. I'm going through Apple directly. Looks like I'll be going through Google and Samsung directly for our other lines for upgrades. Also, we're staying on Sprint Max given the ridiculous pricing for Go5G Plus. On Sprint Max, we currently pay for our Plan: $260 for 7 Voice Lines $25 for two Wearable Lines. (One is $10/Month. The other is $15/Month because the AutoPay discount only applies up to 8 lines.) Total: $285/Month vs. Go5G Plus (Per the Broadband Facts "nutrition label" on the T-Mobile Website): https://www.t-mobile.com/commerce/cell-phone-plans $360 - ($5 AutoPay Discount x 7 Voice Lines) = $325 The Watch Plans show as either $12/Month or $15/Month: https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans/affordable-data-plans/smartwatches So this is about the same for the wearables as what we're paying now. Overall, it's quite more than we're paying now to switch plans. Ridiculous....
