Switching from Verizon to TMobile was a terrible decision!
Deceived by TMobile and now they will not honor it. Bought a new phone while with Verizon and then months later decided to switch my family over to TMobile to save some money. TMobile acted like bringing my device over from Verizon would be a non-issue. Immediately, after transferring to the TMobile network, my text messages began failing to send. After 4 different calls with tech support, 4 times of resetting my phone to default factory mode (then reinstalling all apps and going through my healthcare organizations security to have several work apps readded to my device)and having to make two trips to the TMobile store (40 minute drive each way), my phone is still having text messages fail to send. I have zero issues with the phone, it is in perfect condition and operates flawlessly. However, TMobile's solution to this is that I need to buy a new $900 device. How about 'No!'. I just bought a new phone a year ago for $900 and that phone had zero issues on the Verizon network. TMobile guaranteed me that I could bring my phone over with me. Now that's it's not working as I was told, now they backtrack and say, "well we do have some issues with Verizon phones and typically it is with text messages or data issues". So you are aware that this is an issue yet did not mention it to me as a possible problem and now you want me to buy a new phone from you. What a gimmick!! The issue is on the TMobileside, it's theirnetwork, they should be responsible for replacing my device since you told me that mine would work!! If they had been upfront about known issues with Verizon devices I would have reconsidered making the transfer to TMobile, which I guarantee is exactly why they did not disclose this information. For me, the $20/month savings between the TMobile and Verizon bills was not worth this hassle! I will be continuing to share this experience with multiple outlets.Re: Thinking of switching to T-Mobile? Don't.
They lied to me as well and now will not offer a solution other than me buying a new $900 phone when the issue is on TMobile's end: Deceived by TMobile and now they will not honor it.
