T-MOBILE: KEEP THE 2G NETWORK UP INDEFINITELY
Hello T-MOBILE, As your customer and provider of revenue, - and on behalf of most of Gen Z and the Elderly - we say DO NOT SHUT 2G DOWN. KEEP IT UP. WE WILL PAY TO BE ON 2G. Reason we want it up is Forfreedom to downgrade to a simpler phone with ease, The 2G network - due to its simplicity - is far more reliable than 4g and especially 5g; 5g being top-heavy Gen Z (me) and most people like simple things, and since these devices still work, why wouldwe keep blowing cash on new phones? When we're saving for houses? Finally, We like RAZRs, (not the new one, that's highway robbery) This brings me to a personal note:5g is ridiculously superfluous. No one really asked for it, and that's the truth. We know that many among the billionaire class and the Business Class desire to sell 5g, and they are using blogs, reports, studies, and every other form of persuasive propaganda to sell the "demand" for 5g, but ITS NOT THERE. WE DO NOT WANT IT. There's such a thing as "Over-Engineering", and this is a prime example. Gen Z and the public in general simply want affordable, reliable devices, and relationship with people. All your 5g revolution will do is destroy what we need and love, and destabilize the network infrastructure. Think about it: when 4g and 3g went down, what worked? 2g/1x; can't deny it works. And… "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." - Every Boomer
is there some sort of way to request an area for 2G to NOT shut down?
Is there some sort of way to requestan area for 2G to NOTshut down? I know T-Mobile is shutting down 2G on april 2 2024,but I work with old phones a lot and sometimes my area with LTE/5G goes to no service when it gets overloaded, while 2G stays strong since it's not overloaded. I was wondering if there was a thing to request an area to keep 2G alive, just like how they have 3G alive in very few places still. I was wondering if my city or county or some sort of thing near me could keep 2G, and/or other peoples areas as well. I know someone who only gets signal with 2G and no other carrier can get signal, not even T-Mobile LTE or 5G. also why is 2G going away in the first place? I can't find any info online and to me it doesn't make sense since other places keep it up for 10+ more years
T-Mobile USA, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE bring back activations for Non-VoLTE phones
T-Mobile, PLEASE BRING BACK ACTIVATIONS FOR NON-VOLTE DEVICES!!!!!!! There are many people in this country that want to use their older 2G- as well 3G capable phones along-side their LTE or 5G capable devices, and that is including me! I want to state that it is very bothersome when I want to use my 3 T-Mobile branded Nokia 3390s, or even my 5190, that they keep disconnecting with modern SIM cards I activate! It is very greedy of T-Mobile to do this to block new customers from using not just 2G devices, but also older LTE device such as: Galaxy S3 Galaxy Note 2 iPhone 5 iPhone 5c iPhone 5s Galaxy S4 Galaxy Note 3 and many more early Non-VoiceHD LTE devices that are kind of rendered useless because of this forced VoLTE that new SIM cards are programmed on. In many European countries like Germany where Deutsche Telekom is keeping 2G service active in it's full glory and explaining that 2G service will stay, and they even reassured people that 2G is staying for probably like ever, why don't we have that system here too where we can use whatever phone we want for forever? I mean, the 2G network will be around for a long time here so what's the issue to allow activations for non VoLTE devices? As I said earlier I have many Nokia 3390s (and I plan to get more) that I would like to use on the T-Mobile network and that will make me very happy and many others like me as well, and T-Mobile will make lots of money for new activations of 2G service too and I know they are looking for that. I will literally activate all of my 2G-3G phones in a heartbeat once they bring back Non-VoLTE activations! T-Mobile USA, the Nokia 3390s have only 64k SIM support and I BEG YOU GUYS TO PLEASE BRING BACK 64K SIM SUPPORT AS WELL!!!!! I WANT TO USE MY NOKIAS AND OTHER BRANDS FOR MANY MORE YEARS TO COME!!!!! T-Mobile, I know you are reading this, and I want to point out that since you guys have no set date for a 2G shutdown and won't for a really long time to come, I do want you guys to seriously invest thought into bringing back activations for old Non-VoiceOver LTE back, if you guys can also please favor these old phones a little more and explain how awesome they are too when you guys create that specific page for old phones and activations too! T-Mobile, Thanks for keeping 2G GSM service active for us BUT PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE JUST LISTEN TO US AND BRING BACK 64K SIM SUPPORT SO WE HAVE EASY ACTIVATIONS That way you guys will have many more customers come on the network if that's what you guys are looking for!!!!!!! ¡Gracias David!
2G NETWORK PLEASE PREVAIL
I love using the 2g network before any other network. especially above 3g . my second is 4g LTE with Verizon . but since they are pansy's and only care about the 4g 5g trend I switched to T- Mf Mobile! I hope to god they keep the 2g network alive for us cellular agents and global techys!
