Seriously, T-Mobile reminds me of Trump... Give it a fancy name and sell the same bullshit like the others. Great, now I get a share of T-Mobile, and I have to keep it in THEIR stock account... and for referrals I get more stock, no cash...

 

In other words, T-Mobile gets essetially some broker firm to shell out the cash, as promotion and pretends to be the hero.

Verizon is taking notice now.... There was the Ricky Gervais "Map Commercial"...

 

A Fact Check for the Verizon spokesman: Verizon didn't have LTE in 2002, but carry on with that narrative....

I'm truly surprised Verizon took the bait like they did. 

 

If I'm parachuted into Basking Ridge, I'm writing this statement.

 

​"Our commitment to network quality speaks for itself. We don't have to run commercials time after time touting the quality of our network because people know. Independent testing knows, too. We have been RootMetrics #1 for a very long time, in fact since the second half of 2013 when RootMetrics started doing national tests. What we have is consistent network performance over the largest chunk of America compared to any of our competitors. Don't take our word for it. Use our network and see the difference. Use us in comparison to any competitor. You'll see the difference."

Things are different nowadays as far as the talking smack goes. It's something JL started and used effectively to gather support. Hesse was quiet so was the t and vzw while he ran his mouth. Many took to the fighting underground movement of JL followers.

Marcelo came in and "professionally" (using that loosely) fired back at JL.. It's like a pep rally. It was a matter of time before VZW/Att start firing back. We my friends get to sit back and enjoy !!!

 

Shots!!! Fired!!!

Now sprint should do a "tour" with all the ex vzw commercial people at the round table sharing their "new " experience with Sprint!!

Verizon most definitely took the bait. Here's more detail on who at Verizon said that:

 

"Sprint is using our 2002 pitchman because their network is finally catching up to our 2002 network quality," Verizon spokesman Jeffrey Nelson said, noting that Verizon is the "most awarded wireless network ever."

I have to give credit where its due. This is a brilliant marketing move by Sprint, no doubt. Hopefully it will help Sprint.

Uncarrier 11 is truly disappointing in my opinion. Not that I'm a huge supporter of the Uncarrier initiatives to begin with, but really T-Mobile could have come up with something better for Uncarrier 11 than free pizza, frosties, and stock.

He doesn't have any new ideas, and if he tries to give customers more free stuffs then Tmobile margins will shrink from where they are. The winners here are Verizon and AT&T since they weathered the storm without huge drops.

Essentially what John Legere is doing with this is saying "Here here everybody, join our network and I'll give you free ice cream mixed in chocolate once a week, or I'll give you a free pizza that only costs the company making it like a buck or two while it makes you extremely unhealthy. Oh, and I'll give you some stock if you join too, pretty please?"

 

I'm glad for the deals my mother and I have received from T-Mobile, but I've got to say that almost everything else I see them do is cringe-worthy. If not for what they've given us, along with having decent in-building coverage at the end of the year, I'd leave.

You might think its a huge disappointment but it was in such high demand that it crashed the app so its a better idea than you think. People like free stuff.

Of course people are going to jump at free stuff. It's not a matter of people not using it, it's just that in terms of addressing "pain points" this was probably the worst of all. T-Mobile's Uncarrier events are becoming less of a spectacle and it seems like everyone is taking notice.

Sprint gave out free movie tickets and Amazon prime recently too no? Yawn.

Yup! Because I was one of the lucky ones who got the free year of Amazon Prime.

    • I posted this in the Nebraska Premier thread last week, but just wanted to share in this thread the progress that T-Mobile has made in filling in the great coverage gap known as Nebraska. Between late last year and this year, they have added 28 new expansion sites filling in the coverage hole, plus 11 Sprint site conversions in eastern Nebraska and far western Iowa. Notably, in the last month n41 coverage was added on over a dozen expansion sites in western Nebraska that were added to the network last year. For comparison, here is the very first map that I created in October of 2022 after we noted expansion sites outside of Sprint conversion in Lincoln and Omaha. It doesn't show any western parts of the state, but just know there was nothing besides roaming coverage and a little B12 coverage leaking down from South Dakota to the west of Valentine, NE.
