Slow speeds using the t-mobile esim app designed for tourists
Hi, last night i signed up to t-mobile using their esim app. I am visting from the UK. I paid for the highest plan which didn't mention and speed restrictions apart from if you use more then 50gb you may be slowed down (or deprioritised). I did a speed check and was getting some goodish speeds at one point 70/80mbps on 5g. But today i am barely getting abocve 3mbps which has me thinking i'm being throttled. Things seems sluggish compared to last night. Does anyone have experence with the plans (50/60 dollars) or know why it's happening or if it's temporary. I checked the coverage and the 5g ultra i think i'm just outside so i'm just connected to the 5g (2 bars).
What phone do you have and did you check to see if it was compatible with Tmobile’s bands.
An iPhone 14 max pro (from the uk). The app also checks whether it's compatible with the network. Although I don't think the phone supports the mmwave thing. But as I said last night I received faster speeds.
Must of been the location. I know at my house my speeds are slow and I get a block away and they're 300 down.
