virgin mobile vs t mobile

https://subscribe.publicmobile.ca/en/on B-5Gspeed7 It slows down after 40GB is all used up for the month. Make sure to pick the 5G one, the 4G same price does not have unlimited data. It just doesn't have roaming in other countries and wifi calling. Thanks for the heads up on this.
Virgin/Bell. Fido/Rogers. I have had both in Saskatoon. Rogers service was terrible outside of the city. Customer service is dog shit. Bell had good coverage, customer service was OK, just expensive. I'm on Telus now, and I don't think I'd go to anything else. 5. PrincessFluffyKitty.
Usually, following a new iPhone launch the price of a previous models is discounted. This time Apple chose to eliminate the iPhone 5. Meanwhile, Virgin Mobile. has cut the price of the iPhone 4 down to $ today September 15. (A total price chart follows that compares Virgin Mobile to Straight Talk, T-Mobile, Sprint, Verizon Wireless and AT&T) Yup, you can get iPhone 4 8GB in Black or and White for $ from Virgin Mobile. That is without a contract. Remember although you can legally unlock an iPhone from Sprint, you may have trouble unlocking a Virgin Mobile iPhone 4. It's probably a good idea not to buy the iPhone 4 from Virgin Mobile for purposes of just buying a cheap iPhone. iPhone 4 Pricing with Contract for the Big Carriers The iPhone 4 came out in 2010 and this could be blow-out sale so get your credit card ready. The iPhone 4 is no longer available from AT&T except as a refurbished model for free with a contract. Sprint's website shows that it is still selling the iPhone 4 for free with a contract and does the Verizon Wireless. However, if you buy an iPhone 4 from them you will be stuck with a two-year contract even though you will be the phone for next to nothing upfront. Virgin Mobile uses the Sprint Network. You can not use an unlocked phone from another carrier for Virgin Mobile like you can do with Straight Talk. As of this writing, Straight Talk was selling the iPhone 4 for $ they may be discounted when they see that their closet competitor the Virgin Mobile has reduced the price. Straight Talk is Virgin Mobile's closest competitor when you figure overall cost. Straight Talk does not reveal what network it uses, many believe it is T-Mobile. Previously, we took out our spreadsheet to determine that the absolutely cheapest deal for the iPhone 5 was Virgin Mobile. Now for at least today as long as there is stock Virgin Mobile is the best deal for the iPhone 4. Virgin Mobile Plans Cheaper with AutoPay for iPhone 4 Virgin Mobile starts at $35 per month but customers can also receive a $5 per-month plan discount when they register and sign up for automatic monthly payments [“Auto Pay”] with a credit card, debit card or PayPal account, making the iPhone 4 available on for as low as $30 per month for 300 voice minutes unlimited text and data. The next plan up is 1200 minutes for $45 and unlimited minutes for $50 a month. The plans can be reduced by paying with Auto Pay. All Virgin Mobile smartphone plans include of high speed data. Virgin Mobile clearly calls its unlimited data that is throttled afterwards. We calculated the cost of the iPhone 4 across carriers and prepaid services with prices we found on the carrier websites on Friday September 13, the price of the actual iPhone 4 may drop at midnight September 15. We have only been notified of the Virgin Mobile price drop. We suspect that the iPhone 4 is in limited quantities and may sell out. The iPhone 4 will be updated to iOS 7 which is due out September 18. Therefore you will get the latest operation system with 2010 hardware. The only drawback is that it has a touchscreen. The main improvements on the iPhone 4S over the iPhone 4 are the processor, camera and radio. The new iPhone 4S has a 1430mAh battery, 10mAh more than the iPhone 4, 210mAh more than the iPhone 3GS. Now let's look at the numbers over two years the best deal for the iPhone 4 is: iPhone 4 Total Pricing for 2 Years Compares, Virgin Mobile vs Straight Talk vs T-Mobile, Verizon, Sprint & AT&T.

T-Mobile offers a daily package as does Verizon, but for just $5/day, $35/10-day package or $50/month making the savings instant from our first trip. The data plans are lower for all of the packages but are considerably less expensive. T-Mobile’s monthly package offers 15GB rather than Verizon’s 20GB for the same month, but the cost is half.
Verizon T-mobile Best for Best for most Best value Monthly $75-$85/mo. $70-$80/mo. Learn more View plans View plans Verizon holds out in 1st-place in the nation in all of the most important categories: coverage, speed, and phones. But are they the right choice for everyone? What about the up-and-comer, T-Mobile? After all, T-Mobile offers better prices, great perks, and solid coverage, too. So if you’re wondering which one is right for you and are thinking about switching from Verizon to T-Mobile, or vice versa, then read on in our head-to-head comparison of T-Mobile vs. Verizon. Plans and Pricing Plan Monthly price Video streaming quality Data Coverage Taxes, fees, activation View Plans T-Mobile one $70/month 480p Unlimited at 3G speeds Up to 5GB LTE in Mexico and Canada; data at 2G speeds when international No activation fees; all included View plans T-Mobile One Plus $80/month HD Unlimited 3G + 20 GB 3G LTE Up to 5GB LTE in Mexico and Canada; data at 2G speeds when international No activation fees; all included View plans Verizon Go Unlimited $75/month 480p Unlimited 4G + 600kbps Up to 512MB of data per day in Mexico and Canada; TravelPass needed for international data (+$5-10/day) Fees are not included View plans Verizon Beyond Unlimited $85/month 720p Unlimited 4G + 15GB of 4G LTE Up to 512MB of data per day in Mexico and Canada; TravelPass needed for international data (+$5-10/day) Fees are not included View plans Above Unlimited $95/month 720p Unlimited 4G + 20GB 4G LTE Up to 512MB of data per day in Mexico and Canada; TravelPass needed for international data (+$5-10/day) Fees are not included View plans T-Mobile has fewer ‘gotchas’, fewer restrictions, and better prices -- that makes them a winner in our book. Unlimited plans Having a great cell phone plan means more than just offering the lowest monthly rate. You also need add-ons and a great balance between data, coverage, and speeds. T-Mobile simply wins this round. Not only is T-Mobile’s lone unlimited plan cheaper than any of Verizon’s unlimited options (starting at $70/month vs. $75), but it’s less restrictive, too. You only get your data slowed down if you hit 50GB during the billing period — Verizon’s similarly-priced plan, Go Unlimited, reserves the right to throttle your speed at any time. Verizon’s Beyond Unlimited gives you just a 23GB threshold, with only the Above Unlimited plan (75GB) exceeding T-Mobile’s data limit. Although both T-Mobile and Verizon Go Unlimited restrict video streaming to 480p, you can upgrade to T-Mobile One Plus for HD streaming and other extras like 10GB of LTE hotspot data and free Wi-Fi on Gogo-enabled flights– for just an extra $10/month. That’s still cheaper than T-Mobile’s Beyond Unlimited, which costs $85/month for similar extra features. Another area to note is that T-Mobile doesn’t require any contracts — you pay by the month and cancel at any time. Verizon doesn’t either, but when they did away with their 2-year contracts in 2017, they raised their activation fee from $20 to $30 and upgrade fees to $20. T-Mobile eliminated their activation fees. Each of these costs for T-Mobile includes taxes and fees, which we love: what you see is what you get– no added fees. Family Plans Plan 1 Line 2 Lines 3 Lines 4 Lines View Plan T-Mobile One $70/mo. $120/mo. $140/mo. $160/mo. View plans Verizon Go Unlimited $75/mo. $130/mo. $150/mo. $160/mo. View plans Verizon Beyond Unlimited $85/mo. $160/mo. $180/mo. $200/mo. View plans T-Mobile also comes out on top with family plans. A family of 4 will pay $160/month for unlimited data. The equivalent plan at Verizon — Beyond Unlimited — costs you $200/month. Other plans If you’re a single user who doesn’t need unlimited data, both carriers also offer a selection of prepaid plans, and T-Mobile has an Unlimited Talk and Text (no data) plan, as well — a great option for those of us who want to be less connected. Verizon T-Mobile Extra fees The “what you see is what you get” principle we commended T-Mobile for earlier still applies here: there are no extra fees — all taxes and fees are included in their listed price, and there’s not even an activation fee. Verizon, however, has a laundry list added to your monthly rate: one-time activation of $30/new line, $20/line/month line access charge, varying network surcharges, plus tax (or higher, depending on state). When it comes to contract termination fees, the good news comes from T-Mobile again: they have no contracts, so you don’t have to pay any termination fees if you cancel your account. Verizon, however, charges you between $175 and $350 to terminate your contract, depending on your device. Winner: T-Mobile for better pricing, fewer restrictions, and zero “gotchas.” Coverage T-Mobile Verizon Coverage is always a tricky category. As long as where you live is covered that’s all that really matters, right? I mean, if T-Mobile only covered Antarctica and Verizon covered all the rest, but you lived in Antarctica, then T-Mobile would be your personal winner, right? Unfortunately for T-Mobile, they don’t cover Antarctica, we don’t live there even if they did, and as a reviewer coverage area matters. While Verizon wins this category due to covering a larger percentage of the country, T-Mobile’s loss isn’t really as bad as it might look since they still cover the more populated Verizon. Performance In the 2019 OpenSignal report, OpenSignal declared Verizon the winner in nearly all their measured categories. That’s a stark contrast from previous reports, wherein OpenSignal’s own words were “accustomed to handling T-Mobile accolades”. Verizon has made a comeback in the last 6 months, with T-Mobile coming in a close second. And we do mean close second. They were only behind in 4G (a lead over Verizon in Download Speed was a tie for some reason though?). They also only lost Upload speed by Their most significant loss, in video experience, was a category that every provider was mediocre at. RootMetrics, who have declared Verizon the overall winner for 10 years, ranked them 1st once again, making this the Big Red’s 11th consecutive year topping the scoreboard. Power’s Customer Care study muddies the waters a bit by awarding T-Mobile an 833 and Verizon a second-place score of 812. You could view this as an endorsement of their customer experience, but we can tell you that when it comes to figuring out the basic details of a plan, Verizon wins hands down; we had to visit half a dozen pages to even find all the plans that T-Mobile Verizon takes the category. Phone selection Most flagship phones are available at just about every major carrier– both T-Mobile and Verizon offer the latest iPhones and Androids. However, Verizon is the only carrier who you can buy Google’s Pixel phones from directly. They also landed the Moto devices before any others, although those are now available at T-Mobile, counter, T-Mobile has a wider device selection when it comes to the more budget-conscious among us. They offer a solid selection of phones under $200 from LG and Samsung, as well as the branded Revvl. And it’s worth noting that you can buy a Pixel from Google, then take it to any carrier you want. You can bring your phone over to either carrier, but with T-Mobile your unlocked phone is more likely to work with their GSM-based network– something Verizon can’t say. Winner: Verizon wins for its exclusives– T-Mobile wins affordability and greater compatibility with unlocked phones Customer service Power ranked T-Mobile as the highest full-service carrier (833), with Verizon coming in close behind (812). That shouldn’t be wondered at too much, with T-Mobile’s new “team of experts” program, which immediately connects customers with real humans when they call or initiate an online chat. That’s something the other carriers need to emulate to beat. Winner: T-Mobile. Perks With more perks and extras included into their monthly rates, T-Mobile easily wins this one. Both Verizon and T-Mobile know how to add a little sugar to the deals they offer, with both providing some interesting perks. T-Mobile - Traveler perks T-Mobile gives subscribers all the perks. To start with, T-Mobile ONE gives you an hour of inflight data and free inflight texting so long as your flight is GoGo-enabled; upgrade to ONE Plus and you get unlimited data. And once arrive at your international destination, you’ll be able to text and use data in 140+ countries worldwide. T-Mobile - Netflix + T-Mobile Tuesdays But if you’re not a big traveler, no big deal – T-Mobile still has some perks for you. Netflix is free with 2 or more lines, and everyone regardless of number of lines has access to T-Mobile Tuesdays. T-Mobile Tuesdays provide rewards to all T-Mobile customers that can include free movies, sports tickets, and more. Nice. Verizon - Verizon Up In comparison to T-Mobile, Verizon’s perks are pretty scant. You can use data when traveling, but you need to pay an additional $5-10 per day, depending on the country, for a TravelPass. But Verizon has it’s own rewards program: Verizon Up. It’s rewards are similar to T-Mobile Tuesdays’, but Verizon has customers earn “credits” to use as currency. It works like this: spend $300 and you get a credit; for every credit you earn, that’s one reward. Winner: This one should be ultra-clear: with more perks and extras included into their monthly rates, T-Mobile easily wins this one. Recap -- who wins? There’s a reason carrier rankings are so tight at the top… so there’s just one question to ask: what do you care about most? Both carriers are pretty neck-and-neck– where Verizon wins one area, T-Mobile wins another. In our comparison, both carriers won 3 areas won in coverage, performance, and device selection– but lost when they split their unlimited offerings into separate tiers and came up short in customer service. The Un-carrier provides a lower monthly bill, better perks, and stronger customer service– but their coverage and network performance falls up short. To Sum Up: Verizon is more expensive than T-Mobile, but in some cases they’re definitely worth the money. Verizon has:Better coverage. So if you live in a rural area, you’ll be better off. Better devices. While T-Mobile has added the Google Pixel to their lineup, Verizon has had them longer and has some of the first models for those on a budget. Better speed. Again, Verizon has better speeds – although it’s a close race. We love how T-Mobile includes their taxes and fees into the monthly price – that sets a good tone right off the bat. But T-Mobile’s rural performance is subpar to Verizon. But, T-Mobile has: Better data. T-Mobile gives you a 50GB soft data cap, more than double Verizon’s perks + Internationals: T-Mobile’s T-Mobile Tuesday doesn’t require you to spend a certain amount of money or do anything special – you’re automatically enrolled. Plus you can score a free Netflix subscription and solid international service while a reason that carrier rankings are so tight — it’s a close race between pretty evenly matched competitors. And with that narrow gap, there’s just one question to ask: what do you care about most? FAQs Does either carrier have overage charges? T-Mobile provides a very generous 50GB per month soft data cap. The best part? You won’t even see any overage fees, either — just some slow-down. But 50GB of data per month is a wildly high cap — you could stream standard definition video for an hour every single day without coming close to it. Verizon, on the other hand, has a data cap of 22GB per month, and for every 1 GB that you pass over that cap, you’ll be charged $15. Does either carrier allow you to bring your own phone? Yes, both carriers allow you to bring your own phone, or as Verizon says, “BYOD.” That said, not every device is compatible with the carriers’ network. But when it comes to that, T-Mobile is a little more “BYOD”-friendly, with a higher chance of compatibility although if you have any questions you should call them or look into it more yourself. Last one -- can I keep my old phone number? Luke is the managing editor and site manager of Dailywireless. As a wireless enthusiast/consumer, he reviews a lot of services based on his own experience. Disgruntled as he may be, he tries to keep his articles as honest as possible.
Virgin Plus is a subsidiary of Bell, like Toyota & Lexus. Bell is more geared towards high end, latest, greatest, amd fastest, while Virgin is more budget friendly (in most cases). Bell offers 5G, while Virgin uses 4G LTE / HSPA+. I'd recommend going with their prepaid service (Lucky Mobile), then going to Bell store or a Virgin Kiosk 30 days
Dirt cheap data plans: Virgin Mobiles vs T-Mobile Thread starter desura Start date Aug 30, 2013 Mar 22, 2013 4,627 129 101 #1 These are the two I know of. Virgin Mobile runs off the sprint network. It's $35/mo (or $30 if you pay several months in advance I believe). Phones are unsubsidized, but 2 year cost compared to Sprint is like half. 300 minutes + "unlimited" data. T-Mobile has their own network, though I'm not sure how good it is. $30/mo. Kind of hard to find. Big plus in my book is that they seem to have more options in way of phones, and so you can take any unlocked phone, like the recently price-dropped Nexus 4, and go on their network. 100 minutes + 5gb fast internet and then throttled internet afterwards. How do they compare? #2 T-Mobile has worse coverage but is significantly faster. Sprint is so slow that they honestly shouldn't be a consideration by anyone for any reason. #4 It all comes down to how your coverage is where you plan to use your phone. Nothing else really matters in comparison. Mar 22, 2013 4,627 129 101 #5 You might want to look at the currently active 'Should I Switch to Sprint' thread: Well, that was easy. Right now I'm still using a flip phone on...sprint. Doing the maths and stuff...I can actually upgrade to the Tmobile $30/mo plan and a smartphone, and actually pay roughly the same as I currently pay to sprint for the dumbphone (it's on a family plan and stuff) Feb 24, 2000 78,794 261 116 #6 It all comes down to how your coverage is where you plan to use your phone. Nothing else really matters in comparison. Exactly. Sprint has some of the best all you can talk/text/data plans but the coverage is absolutely horrendous. What good is a great deal if you only have 0 or 1 bars of coverage? Ask your friends, family and co-workers which providers offer the best coverage then start looking for a good deal. If T-Mobile has great coverage in your area, I'm a huge fan of Platinum Tel esp if you load up on their 50% off coupons (assuming it's still working of course). Feb 24, 2000 78,794 261 116 #8 Counterpoint- I recently switched from Sprint, not prepaid, to T-Mobile prepaid, the same $30 100minute/5 gb data discussed. Wher I live Sprint's coverage wasn't good, but I could roam for free so I usually could make calls. T-Mobile's coverage is just as bad but now I just don't have any signal at all sometimes. I take road trips. On the interstates I could pretty much always use Google maps anywhere on Sprint, sometimes it was a little slow to DL maps, but it worked. With T-Mobile MOST of the time I could not get any maps to DL at all. My point isn't that T-Mobile is bad but people shouldn't be so quick to diss Sprint. Whe it comes to coverage its not Verizon, but neither is anyone else. #9 Counterpoint- I recently switched from Sprint, not prepaid, to T-Mobile prepaid, the same $30 100minute/5 gb data discussed.

When it comes to coverage its not Verizon, but neither is anyone else. You are comparing T-Mobile pre-paid vs. Sprint non-Prepaid which isn't much of a valid comparison. Apples to oranges. About as useful as comparing Virgin Mobile pre-paid vs Verizon non-prepaid. I don't recommend any of T-Mobile's prepaid plans because there is no roaming and coverage is much worse. And FYI, Virgin Mobile has much worse coverage than Sprint and there is no roaming as well. Virgin Mobile(which is a Sprint prepaid plan) vs T-Mobile prepaid is a more valid comparison. #10 And FYI, Virgin Mobile has much worse coverage than Sprint and there is no roaming as well. Virgin Mobile(which is a Sprint prepaid plan) vs T-Mobile prepaid is a more valid comparison. I've personally found Virgin Mobile coverage to be identical to Sprint (I was on Virgin Mobile for about 3 years) where we live. The only difference is where Sprint hands the connection over to Verizon roaming. The real differences were the individual phones (some phones have better signal reception than others) and the ability to roam. Might not be this way everywhere, but definitely everywhere I traveled. #11 I've personally found Virgin Mobile coverage to be identical to Sprint (I was on Virgin Mobile for about 3 years) where we live. The only difference is where Sprint hands the connection over to Verizon roaming. The real differences were the individual phones (some phones have better signal reception than others) and the ability to roam. Might not be this way everywhere, but definitely everywhere I traveled. You are an anomaly...I'll let the actual maps speak for themselves. Virgin Mobile coverage: Sprint coverage: #12 I am on Virgin and have no complaints. Then again I live in an area with Sprint LTE and have an LTE phone. #13 Assuming that TMO has decent coverage in your area, its a no brainer to go with them. The wider choices in phones is a huge point in their favor. Virgin Mobile is limited to a subset of variations of Sprint devices. #14 If you actually research those maps you will see that Virgin's coverage of interstate travel isn't that different from Sprints. Which makes sense because along interstates Sprint has pretty good 3g coverage. Its not as good as Verizon's, last time I checked it was about on par with ATT. And those 3 are the only carriers that cover interstate travel to any substantial degree. Which is important for things like searching for gas stations, pois, etc, while traveling. #15 Last edited: Aug 31, 2013 #17 chose VM over tmobile due to cheaper with a usable number of minutes. their data speeds are fine when on 3g. I routinely get 100KBytes/s, very low latency etc. Unfortunately a lot of the time I seem to be on 1xRTT which is way slower. This is my main beef with them, and is probably why most people think they have terrible speeds. I think their throttling algorithm kicks in sometimes too when it shouldn't (I never use >1GB data and according to them it shouldn't kick in before because a lot of the time when I'm on 1xRTT I'll enable WiMax and it'll be no faster. Other times WiMax is super fast and it's fantastic. Usually I'm very happy with VM. Seem better than metroPCS #18 I've used tmos $30 UL plan for over two years now and I still love it. I used to have VZW back in the 3G UL days and I've prob saved $1K since switching. I've moved back and forth between CA and WA and coverage is good for me in these metro areas. Dec 17, 2008 2,129 222 106 #19 Virgin Mobile unlimited data throttles after a certain amount (2 or Gbs if I recall) Virgin Mobile uses the sprint network. It is different than the contract sprint for contract sprint can roam on verizon network so make sure you have coverage. You can't choose your device with Virgin you have to select from their limited choices. T-Mobile's "Walmart" plan gets you 5GBs of high speed data. T-Mobile contract phones getter better coverage than the Wal-Mart prepaid plans since you do not roam on the prepaid plan. You can choose any compatible sim device with T-Mobile It all comes down to how your coverage is where you plan to use your phone. Nothing else really matters in comparison. This, this, a hundred times this. If equal coverage get T-Mobile for you can get something like a nexus or a good used phone for cheap, but you can have the cheapest phone or the most expensive phone and you get crappy coverage and suddenly it doesn't matter. Oct 27, 2000 9,904 510 136 #20 their data speeds are fine when on 3g. I routinely get 100KBytes/s, very low latency etc. Unfortunately a lot of the time I seem to be on 1xRTT which is way slower. This is my main beef with them, and is probably why most people think they have terrible speeds. I think most people think it's slow because 100KB IS slow. That's barely fast decent enough to stream music. I know because I had sprint and my music would always skip. I switched to TMo and average 3mbps, which is what I averaged on sprint LTE. On tmobile LTE I see 10-15. Sprints 3g is horrible and their 4G is still only as fast as others 3g. #21 Sprint is so slow that they honestly shouldn't be a consideration by anyone for any reason. And now I'm stuck with 1 year and 10 months left to go with them. But I thought what the heck Sprint is cheaper than Verizon or ATT for unlimited data. Not saying it's worth it. Did XtremeLabs speed testing with their mobile app. Don't really want to post the results. Using the Samsung GS4 btw. #22 chose VM over tmobile due to cheaper with a usable number of minutes. their data speeds are fine when on 3g.

On Straight Talk, I got 5 times that amount. Umm...If you "routinely"(translation: once in a while) get 100KB/s, but "a lot of time"(translation: mostly) I get 1xRTT why wouldn't anyone have a right to think Sprint has terrible speeds? And now I'm stuck with 1 year and 10 months left to go with them. But I thought what the heck Sprint is cheaper than Verizon or ATT for unlimited data. Not saying it's worth it. Did XtremeLabs speed testing with their mobile app. Don't really want to post the results. Using the Samsung GS4 btw. The results are that bad that you're ashamed to post them? Good Lord... For me, Sprint was just as expensive as AT&T and Verizon(or maybe only $10/month less which is essentially peanuts) when I checked them. Hopefully this SoftBank acquisition will make Sprint competitive(both in terms of prices with T-Mobile and coverage with Verizon/AT&T), because as it is now they're not. Mar 22, 2013 4,627 129 101 #23 Blah, I just realized that Tmobile has *no* coverage in my area. The coverage maps for Tmobile are really misleading, because they also count their roaming agreement with ATT...which isn't available on the $30 plan. So then the next closest thing available for me is the Virgin Mobile, either an iphone 4s for $350 about, or a Galaxy SIII for about $330. It's $30/mo with automatic billing. Which...kinda sucks. I was excited for getting the cheap Nokia 521. Thanks to the HSN for putting the brakes before I purchased. I thought that as time went on, the coverage would improve, but it appears to not be the case. Anyone tried Republic Wireless? I'd try it if the phone weren't so lousy. #24 I heard that StraightTalk has ATT sims again so that might be an option. Mar 22, 2013 4,627 129 101 #25 Right now I'm thinking that I might be able to justify a Nokia 820 purchase for use offline. micro-sd card means I can put lots of music on it. But the true killer app appears to be Nokia drive, which is offline navigation (GPS?). The main reason for me to have a smartphone is for navigation functions, honestly.

This article originally appeared on the Motley something seems too good to be true, it probably is. That's an old saying, but it's one that most people keep in mind when they evaluate the latest offer from a cable company, internet service provider (ISP), or a wireless carrier. Even a company like T-Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS), which built its rep on giving customers what they want, got greeted with skepticism earlier this year when it announced plans to drop all taxes and that case, the deal turned out to be exactly what was promised. That's not really true, however, when you look at Sprint's (NYSE:S) offer to cut your phone bill in half made to Verizon and AT&T customers. That promotion, while a good deal, only applied to the service portion of the bill, meaning people who accept the offer won't actually see their wireless bill cut in same logic applies to many cable and ISP promotions where a short-term low price deal comes with a contract for future years that are more expensive. Pay television companies are notorious for offering prices that don't reflect the mandatory fees and surcharges customers have to of that, news that Virgin Mobile (which is operated in the United States by Sprint) would be offering a year of unlimited talk, text, and data to customers who sign up by July 31 for $1 certainly caused consumers to raise an eyebrow. It seems like a phenomenal deal, but is it too good to be true?What is Virgin Mobile doing? The company is giving away a year of unlimited service (with high-speed data capped at 23GB a month) for $1, plus applicable taxes. That deal is not made up, it's not a bait-and-switch offer, but it's also not the whole get a year of unlimited talk, text, and data for $1, the customer must purchase an Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) iPhone and transfer his or her number to Virgin's Inner Circle plan, which costs $50 a month once the promotion ends. Virgin sells all currently offered iPhone models, including offering the entry-level iPhone SE for $ for the 32GB version, which Apple sells for $399. Is there a catch?The only thing approaching a catch here is one that's easy to avoid. To get the deal you need to buy an iPhone. If you buy one from Virgin, it will be locked, which locks you into its service after the promotion get around that, all you have to do is buy the phone directly from Apple. In that case, it will be unlocked, and you will be free to move to another provider at the end of the $1 promotion (or at any time, because Virgin does not lock people in with contracts).Aside from that, the only catch is that you have to pay taxes, which vary by market, but Virgin has not hidden that fact. This is actually a good deal that sets a new bar in the wireless industry. It's a bold move by Sprint, which is banking on the idea that after a year customers won't leave. That may not be true, but that's something shareholders, not consumers, should worry Kline owns shares of Apple. The Motley Fool owns shares of and recommends Apple and Verizon Communications.

Virgin Media Freestyle Trade Up Terms and Conditions Please read the following terms and conditions carefully. You should understand that by placing an order to Trade Up you agree to be bound by these terms and conditions. It is recommended you take note of your IMEI number before you Trade Up in case there are any potential problems with your order. Please see the FAQ for help on how you find your device’s IMEI number 1. What is Freestyle Trade Up? Trade up is a service that allows existing Virgin Media Freestyle customers (“you”) to upgrade to a new phone early by using the value in one old phone (a “Device”) to pay off your existing active Freestyle consumer credit agreement (your “Freestyle Loan”) with Virgin Media Mobile Finance Limited governed by the Consumer Credit Act 1974 (“Trade Up”). You are able to Trade Up any valid Device; it does not need to be the Device associated to your existing Freestyle Loan. 2. Who Provides Trade Up? The Trade Up services are operated for and on behalf of Virgin Media Limited (Company No. 2591237) at 500 Brook Drive, Reading, RG2 6UU,(“Virgin Media”) by Likewize UK Limited ( Company No. 08401611) with its registered office at Crewe Logistics Park, Jack Mills Way, Shavington, Crewe, CW2 5XF, England,, (“Likewize”) (together “we”, “us” or “our”). 3. Eligibility To place a Trade Up order, you warrant: (i) you are a resident in the United Kingdom; (ii) that you are an existing Virgin Media customer with an active Freestyle Loan with Virgin Media Mobile Finance Limited; (iii) you are the owner of the Device or have obtained express consent from the rightful owner to Trade Up the Device; (iv) the Device is not subject to any previously agreed trade in or Trade Up arrangement; (v) the Device was not purchased from Virgin Media within 30 days prior to placing the Trade Up order; and (vi) the Device is not stolen or listed with us or a third party as stolen. As part of the eligibility process, we will check the Device with CheckMEND, from the suppliers of IMMOBILISE as used by UK Police forces to trace stolen and missing property. If the Device fails any due diligence check we may notify the relevant police authority and we may pass the Device and your details to them and the Device Quote as defined in section 4 below will not be used to settle your Freestyle Loan. 4. Placing your Trade Up order To determine the value of your Device, when placing your order you shall provide a true and accurate description of the Device, including but not limited to the following information: (i) the correct brand/make, model and IMEI number of the Device you wish to Trade Up; and (ii) the condition of the Device that you wish to Trade Up, which shall be classed as either: (a) a working device, which means all features of the Device are in good working order and condition, there is no physical damage to the exterior ( to the buttons or screen) or water damage, the device is able to make/receive calls and SMSs, its battery is included and is able to maintain charge and power up (“Working Device”); &;or (b) a non-working device, which means a Device that is not fully functional ( does not power up, has a damaged screen, case or buttons or has water damage) but includes a battery, is not crushed or bent; has no missing components (“Non-Working Device”). The Device’s Trade Up value (“Device Quote”) shall be solely determined by Virgin Media, Likewize or a third party based on the make a model of the Device. Device chargers and accessories may not be returned with your Device and hold no monetary value. They shall not form part of the condition and cannot be used to complete the Trade Up process. Such Device chargers and accessories will not be returned to you; therefore we recommend you carefully check the contents of your package before returning it to us. Once a Trade Up order is placed, the Device Quote shall be valid for up to 14 calendar days to enable you to complete your order. If the Device arrives after 14 calendar days from the date the Trade Up order is placed, the Device Quote shall be updated – see section You will be sent a free postage pack via Royal Mail after placing your order; this will normally arrive 2-3 working days after your Trade Up order has been placed. We do not accept responsibility for lost, stolen, late or damaged postage packs containing your Device. Proof of sending is not is not proof of receiving. If we don’t receive your Device after 28 calendar days, your Trade Up order will be cancelled. For the avoidance of doubt, your current active Freestyle Loan and any new Freestyle Loan are separate and shall continue to be payable as normal and in line with your recently advised payment schedule. Important Information prior to Trade Up: (i) By placing your order and sending your Device, you will be unable to cancel your order. (ii) Please remove any SIM card and any accessories, including without limitation memory cards, prior to Trade Up. We shall not be liable for any consequences of you not removing the SIM card or accessories, including any charges then occurred. You shall continue to be responsible for such charges; and (iii) We strongly encourage you to backup and store elsewhere any data stored on the phone any memory card, including but not limited to images, messages and videos, on the Device that you wish to retain before to Trade Up. We will not be liable for any damage, confidentiality, loss or erasure of any such data, including personal data, or for any consequences of you not removing your data, including use or disclosure of such data. 5. Trade Up contributing to your Freestyle Loan Once your order has been received, we shall, in our absolute discretion, determine whether the description of the Device when the Trade Up order is placed, is an accurate and true description of the Device received: (i) If it is determined to be a true and accurate description, the Device Quote shall be used to part settle/settle your existing active Freestyle Loan. (ii) If it is determined to not be a true and accurate description or if the Device is received after 14 calendar days from the Trade Up order and the value has subsequently changed, then the Device Quote shall be invalidated and a new revised quote (“Revised Value”) will be offered to you to part settle/settle your Freestyle Loan. You shall be notified of such Revised Value by e-mail and you shall have 5 calendar days from the issue of the Revised Value to either accept or reject the Revised Value. If you do not accept or reject the Revised Value, we shall assume you accept the Revised Value and this will be used to part settle/settle your existing active Freestyle Loan. If you do reject the Revised Value, we shall return the Device back to you free of charge. You have 14 calendar days from your acceptance or rejection of the Revised Value to cancel your new Freestyle Loan. For the avoidance of doubt, the Device Quote or, if accepted, the Revised Value shall only contribute to your existing Freestyle Loan. Any outstanding amount on your existing Freestyle Loan remains payable in line with your recently advised payment schedule until paid off completely. This balance can be paid by contacting Virgin Media and making a debit or credit card contribution. Payments in relation to your existing Freestyle Loan will not be taken for up to 30 calendar days from the date your Trade Up order was placed to allow us to process your order. After 30 calendar days, your payment shall resume and a revised payment schedule will be sent to you by email. If the Device Quote or Revised Value is higher than the balance of your existing Freestyle Loan, a credit for the difference between the Device Quote Value or Revised Value and the outstanding balance of the Freestyle Loan shall be paid into the bank account, used to pay your existing Freestyle Loan monthly payments, within 10 working days. 6.

You can add up to 5 mobile lines on all the T-Mobile Connect prepaid plans. T-Mobile Unlimited Plans.

The cheapest unlimited plan costs $60 per month and includes 50GB mobile data and unlimited hotspot data at 3G speeds (3 Mbps to 7 Mbps).
skip to main content Virgin’s got plans that all the single ladies (and guys) might love. Virgin Mobile shuts down and transfers customers to BoostVirgin Mobile shut down operations in January 2020 and transferred all its customers to Boost such, we won't be updating our review for Virgin Mobile, but you can read our full review of Boost right last time I used Virgin Mobile, I was in college and using a shiny new flip-phone (well, more of a slider). Not to date myself, but Virgin Mobile has changed a lot since my college days. Now there are no more flip-phones, and there are some interesting member perks. But those perks also come with quite a few not-so-great limitations, which is why we only gave it one-and-a-half stars. All-in-all, we think Virgin is still a great pick for a college student or someone who needs just one phone line. Pros Up to 35 GB of high-speed data per month with unlimited plans, then your data is slowedMember benefits and discounts on well-known brands Cons Limited streaming and gaming qualityNo family plans—only one line per accountBYO iPhones only Virgin Mobile phone plans and pricesYou get one line and one line only. Not to mention a bunch of other limitations Virgin Mobile makes things simple by only have one basic plan, which you can customize to fit your data consumption needs. This plan has one line, unlimited talk and text, and a minimum of 5 to 35 GB of unthrottled (full-speed) data. Here's a look at the most inexpensive version of the plan. Virgin Mobile Unlimited Plan with 5 GB of data If you want a Virgin Mobile plan with more than a piddling 5GB of data, you can go up to the 10 GB or "Unlimited" (which is actually 35 GB) data options. Virgin Mobile $45 and $60 Unlimited Plans Virgin Mobile Family Plans Unfortunately you'll be limited to just one line with Virgin—there are no family plans available, which means there are no multi-line discounts, So you’ll be paying at least $35 each month for each line. That adds up quick if you need a phone line for more than just you. Essentially, two lines will cost you $70. To compare, Visible Wireless can get you up to four lines, each with unlimited data, for $100 (and Visible's Verizon-run network is better than Virgin's Sprint-run network). Visible Wireless plan with four lines Data throttling There are some limitations on your data even before you reach your full-speed data limit on a Virgin Mobile plan. Your video, music, and game streams will be throttled. Here's a breakdown of the speeds you'll get, and some other perks that will cost you extra. Virgin Mobile Inner Circle unlimited plan features FeaturesInner CircleHigh-speed data 5-35 GB (depending on the plan) Video streaming resoultion SD (480p) Music streaming Up to 500 Kbps Game streaming Up to 2 Mbps Mobile hotspot $5/mo. extra for 1 GB International calling $5–$10/mo. Member benefits access Yes After you use up all of your high-speed data—in Virgin’s case, 5-10 GB a month—your data speed will be slowed, or throttled. Sure, you can keep using data, but your downloads will be like watching paint dry and your video streams will buffer more than a late-night janitor who’s cleaning the floors. Not to mention that 23 GB pales in comparison to 35 GB of unthrottled high-speed data from MetroPCS. If you really want to go big and stream all your favorite Hulu shows without feeling like time has stopped, check out T-Mobile’s 50 GB of unthrottled data or the Verizon Above Unlimited plan’s 75 GB of unthrottled data. Oh em gee. What’s the best cell phone plan? Virgin Mobile member benefits We used to rave about Virgin Mobile's awesome member benefits here, like 25% off and free shipping from Reebok. But those benefits are no more. Virgin seems to have slashed all of its fun discounts and perks so you'll just left with a standard old cell phone plan (what is this, the 2010s?). If you're looking for snazzy bonuses, like access to HBO and other premium channels, then check out AT&T’s Unlimited plans. Virgin Mobile phonesYou can get the latest devices, unless those devices are made by Google With Virgin you can buy the latest devices from most of the major companies, including Apple, Samsung, and LG. One notable exception is the Google Pixel, which Virgin doesn't sell. For example, here's what it would look like to buy a new iPhone 11 Pro Max 64 GB phone when you sign up for Virgin's $60 Unlimited Plan. Virgin Mobile’s Bring Your Own Phone program is limited to iPhones—and you might not even be able to bring older iPhone models, either. Virgin doesn’t explicitly state this, but we can all take the hint when we see “We support the models of iPhone below, but all are not compatible with our network” in the FAQs. How good is Virgin Mobile performance?Virgin runs on Sprint’s network, so don’t expect stellar coverage or speed. Virgin Mobile runs on Sprint’s network, so don’t be surprised if you run into some of the same coverage and speed issues as Sprint users. What can we say? Third-party tests ranked Sprint’s coverage as third or fourth out of the top four cell providers (that top four includes Verizon, AT&T, Sprint, and T-Mobile).3, 4 Of course, coverage depends on the area you’re in, so you may get lucky and never see “No service” pop up on your screen. Because of this, we recommend checking Virgin’s coverage map to get an idea of whether your location is covered—or not. Speed on the Sprint network is a similar story. Three different independent companies pretty much came to a consensus that Sprint is dead last for 6, 7 But low ratings aside, we’ve used Sprint for a while and experienced few speed or coverage issues in both Washington state and Utah. So take those ratings as you will. Dealing with Virgin Mobile customer serviceIf Virgin Mobile played Super Mario, it wouldn’t collect enough stars to beat the game. The customer service ratings don’t look so great for Virgin Mobile8—but we’ll caution you that most cell phone companies are in the same boat. That’s right, wireless providers are pretty notorious for poor customer service. We agree that’s no excuse, but it does mean you’ll want to take a deep breath and focus on remaining patient when you do need to reach out to a representative. If you hate phone trees and waiting on hold, you could send a few hashtags Virgin’s way on social media. (We even saw a couple shoutouts praising Virgin’s customer service team on Twitter, so it must be doing something right.) Twitter: @VMUCare Facebook: @VirginMobileUSA Recap—how good is Virgin Mobile? Is Virgin Mobile the one for you? Here are our thoughts. Plans: Virgin’s plans come loaded with limitations: you get only one line per account, and your video streaming is stuck in standard definition (480p). (Not to mention your music and gaming speeds are limited too.) You’ll also need to pay extra for international calling and a mobile hotspot. Performance: Virgin runs on Sprint’s not-so-highly-rated network, so your service may drop and your speed may stutter if you don’t live solidly within a Sprint coverage area. Customer service: Customers don’t have high praise for Virgin’s service team, but Twitter seems to work. We recommend reaching out on social media so you can at least play a game of Heroes of the Storm while you wait. Overall: If you’re single or just looking for a one-line phone plan, Virgin does offer low prices. But otherwise, the limitations outweigh the benefits.

Mint Mobile’s Unlimited Data Plan starts at $30/month for your first three months. The price then goes up to $45/month, which is still cheaper than AT&T. The good news is you can keep the $30/month price if you prepay for a year. The plan includes 40GB of high-speed data before deprioritization and a 10GB mobile hotspot.
›Virgin Mobile przejęte przez sieć Play. Co to oznacza dla klientów? 10:40Stało się. Wirtualny operator Virgin Mobile Polska, po przeszło dwuletnich negocjacjach, trafia pod skrzydła swojego dostawcy głosy na temat możliwego przejęcia Virgin Mobile przez sieć Play pojawiły się już w styczniu 2018 roku. Wówczas obie strony podpisały wstępne porozumienie oraz ustaliły, że do ewentualnego przejęcia może dojść w 2020 roku. Tak też się wyda na Virgin Mobile ponad 60 mln złW komunikacie prasowym ujawniono, że kwota transakcji opiewa na 13,4 mln euro, czyli równowartość 60,7 mln wymaga jeszcze antymonopolowej zgody Prezesa Urzędu Ochrony Konkurencji i Konsumentów, ale zdaje się, że jest to jedynie przejęcie Virgin Mobile przez Play oznacza dla klientów?Zapytanie w tej sprawie wysłałem zarówno do Virgin Mobile, jak i sieci Play. Otrzymałem jedynie lakoniczną odpowiedź, że "nie ma powodów do obaw".Cóż, można bezpiecznie założyć, że z punktu widzenia klientów nie zmieni się nic. Wynika to zresztą z wcześniejszych deklaracji przedstawicieli wirtualnego operatora."Dlaczego sprzedajemy Virgin Mobile Polska? To jest naturalna droga wirtualnych operatorów komunikacyjnych na całym świecie" - przekonywał w 2018 roku Łukasz Wejchert, jeden z założycieli Virgin Mobile Polska, w rozmowie z Wyborczą. "Jeśli firma zbuduje swoją wartość, stworzy bazę abonentów, tradycyjni operatorzy ją przejmują. Pozyskują dzięki temu innych klientów niż do tej pory" - koniec 2019 roku Play chwalił się liczbą 12,9 mln aktywnych klientów. W tym czasie Virgin Mobile obsługiwanych kart SIM miało 396 tys. Przejęcie wirtualnego operatora pozwoli więc "fioletowym" z dnia na dzień zwiększyć bazę klientów o 3 proc. oraz umocnić pozycję lidera w rankingu największych operatorów w Polsce. Wszelkie negatywne zmiany w ofercie mogłyby wywołać odpływ klientów, dlatego nie sądzę, by Play szykował na tym polu jakąś operator Virgin Mobile Polska wystartował 22 sierpnia 2012 roku. Od samego początku P4 (operator sieci Play) był głównym dostawcą infrastruktury telekomunikacyjnej.

It just 'rents' space on the T-Mobile network, for want of better words, like Sky rent space off Astra. 0 virgin sims work in tmobile phones but tmobile sims dont work on virgin phones. 0 BexTech Posts: 12,957 Forum Member✭✭ Is it me or are T-Mob. and Virgin Mobile the same company?

Greetings "Papryus", I personally own three VCR's - which I have in my loft conversion - 2 are connected together (The LG and Bush are connected together) The Matsui is connected to the Mediamaster also the Matsui is connected to the DVD Player. It's the only one that doesen't bugger up on Macro Vision when recording DVD to VHS.

Saying T-Mobile and Virgin are the same company, is like saying all your VCRs are made by JVC. 0 Right this is a bit complicated .... There are two types of mobile operator Physical Operators (5 in the UK) MMO2 Vodafone T Mobile Orange and Three and Virtual operators examples Tesco Sainsbury Virgin BT Mobile The difference is that the Physical operators actually own the network infrastructure. The Virtual operators don't they buy capacity on other networks in bulk. Virgin and BT Mobile both do this using T-Mobile's network. Hope that helps. 0 Right this is a bit complicated ....

Virgin & T-Mobile, the same company? I see this question asked occasionally and it had been largely answered, so I had no real comment to make. 0 Do you actually get a different network or do you just get an o2 sim card with the phones? 0 Whenever you buy a phone, on pay as you go or pay monthly, you will be connected to the service. The SIM card will be in the phone. Many phones are locked to the network. You can't use other SIM cards on different networks. Phone operators charge to unlock your phone but it is best to go to a local phone shop who deals with SIM unlocks usually priced from a fiver. 0 System Posts: 2,096,970 Forum Member✭✭✭✭✭ virgin sims work in tmobile phones but tmobile sims dont work on virgin phones. So, regardless of whatever T-Mobile phone i bought - weather it was an old one (when it was One 2 One) i could use a virgin sim in their old moblies?

EE vs Virgin Media: average broadband speeds. EE’s broadband speeds: 10Mbps, 36Mbps, 67Mbps, 145Mbps, 300Mbps and 900Mbps. Virgin Media’s broadband speeds: 54Mbps, 108Mbps, 213Mbps, 362Mbps, 516Mbps and 1,130Mbps. In terms of speed, Virgin Media comes out top – indeed, it’s the fastest widely-available provider in the UK.
AT&T (T and T-Mobile (TMUS a tale of two telcos. A decade ago, AT&T attempted to acquire a struggling T-Mobile before those plans fell apart amid antitrust scrutiny. Today, T-Mobile is a revitalized company experiencing tremendous success. It bought rival Sprint last year, and its stock hovers near a 52-week high of $ at the time of this writing. Meanwhile, AT&T stock rests around $29 per share as the company digs its way out of a mountain of debt accumulated during an entertainment acquisition spree. Can AT&T bounce back? If so, can T-Mobile maintain success amid a very competitive telecom market? Let's compare these two telco titans to assess which is the better investment. Image source: Getty Images. The case for AT&T AT&T is in transition after a rough 2020. Last year, its revenue dropped over $9 billion from 2019 due to the coronavirus pandemic. This increased pressure on the company to do more to manage its massive debt load. Consequently, new CEO John Stankey, with less than a year on the job, decided to spin off pricey entertainment acquisitions DIRECTV and WarnerMedia. The sudden reversal makes sense. The company needed to focus on its core telecom business in the all-important race to deliver 5G wireless networks. The renewed focus is paying off. Postpaid customers are the most valuable in the telecom industry, and in the first quarter of this year, AT&T reported nearly 600,000 postpaid phone net adds, the highest Q1 result in over a decade. This Q1 outcome was the third consecutive quarter of exceptional postpaid phone net adds. DATA SOURCE: AT&T COMPANY FILINGS. CHART BY AUTHOR. AT&T's ability to attract customers in the critical postpaid category is coupled with near-record low churn. Given 97% of the population owns a cellphone, attracting customers from competitors, and retaining them, is a must for AT&T to grow revenue. Speaking of which, AT&T experienced year-over-year revenue growth in Q1. The company's free cash flow, key to funding its high-yield dividend while paying down debt, rose 51%. While Q1 results were strong, AT&T expects to adjust down its dividend as a result of spinning off its Time Warner business, which is expected to happen in the middle of next year. For many investors, AT&T was primarily a dividend play. The news of a dividend decline was unwelcome, but investors can still benefit from AT&T's entertainment bet. Shareholders will receive stock in the new company as part of the spin-off. T-Mobile's strengths While AT&T shifts away from its entertainment aspirations, T-Mobile's 2020 success continues into 2021 with an impressive first quarter. AT&T may have experienced strong Q1 postpaid phone net adds, but T-Mobile was the industry leader with 773,000 net additions. Its Q1 result followed a stellar 2020 where T-Mobile led the industry in postpaid phone net adds. It also saw full-year revenue grow from $ billion in 2019 to $ billion in 2020 despite the pandemic, helped by its Sprint acquisition. T-Mobile's strategy for continued success is sound. Like its competitors, T-Mobile is building out its 5G network. But while AT&T had to bid $ billion in a February government auction to buy mid-band spectrum vital for its 5G network coverage, T-Mobile bid just $ billion to supplement what it already holds. Thanks to its merger with Sprint, T-Mobile will have over 70% more mid-band spectrum than AT&T in the coming years. This gives T-Mobile's 5G network the advantage in coverage and performance at a lower cost. With its superior 5G network, T-Mobile plans to grow its share in smaller markets and among businesses, where its current share is less than 10%. T-Mobile expects to nearly double its market share of business customers over the next five years as 5G adoption ramps up. The final verdict Both AT&T and T-Mobile have merits. AT&T's $ billion in Q1 free cash flow overshadows T-Mobile's $ billion. But T-Mobile doesn't have to allocate its free cash flow to a dividend. So which is the better investment in the long run? Building out a 5G network is capital-intensive. That's where AT&T's debt is a burden. The company's long-term debt at the end of Q1 stood at $ billion. Meanwhile T-Mobile's long-term debt was $ billion in Q1. T-Mobile has the advantage in 5G spectrum, and a solid strategy for ongoing revenue growth. AT&T is still untangling from its media acquisitions, and its attractive dividend is expected to decline. Given these factors, I think it's safe to say that T-Mobile is currently the better investment.

Bell and Virgin are the same company and use the same network. Telus/Koodo also share that network. Rogers/Fido use a different network. Wind/Freedom have their own network in some areas. Maybe I was told the marketing stuff that virgin is using the bell network but bell users has the prioritiesI just hope Bell might have better LTE data
The retailers featured on this page may compensate us when our readers follow links to their websites and make a purchase. MoreNow that Virgin Mobile no longer use the EE network, we look at what differences there now are for coverage, speeds and benefits. Last updated: 15th February 2022. Is coverage better on Virgin Mobile or EE?If you’ve been on Virgin Mobile for a while, you might remember that they used to use EE’s network for coverage. That’s no longer the case, as Virgin now use Vodafone’s network, while EE own and operate gives Virgin an advantage for call signal (3G/2G). Their hostscover more of the geographic area of the UK than EE do, and their indoor coverage tends to be a bit better as EE hold a clear advantage for 4G data (see 5G below). In fact we’d say it’s the best thing about being on EE. They cover more of the UK’s landmass for 4G and more of the areas where people way, it’s worth checking both networks' latest coverage checkers before signing up to see which one has better reception in your area. Check everywhere you’ll expect to use your link: Use EE and Virgin's coverage checkers.✔ 5G is expanding rapidly on both networksEE and Virgin both have 5G live in many large towns and cities up and down the country and offer 5G on all of their plans at no extra cost. So, which one offers better 5G coverage?EE's 5G SIM only dealsThese plans come with 5G data:In our rankings for the best 5G networks, we put EE at number one because they covered an impressive 160+ locations against Virgin's 120+ listed here. That doesn’t sound like a massive difference, but there’s more to it:EE will only declare that a location is covered once 5G is available in at least 50% of that location’s area. Some networks declare theirs after only covering a few not only do EE cover potentially way more locations than Virgin, but they tend to have better coverage within their locations. Still, it’s worth using their network maps below to see which is better in your link: What difference does 5G make vs 4G? Check signal everywhere you'll use your phone, not just at home "EE have by far the best 4G coverage of all networks and it makes up for their weaker call signal, as you can make calls over 4G calling. Virgin isn’t bad for 4G either, but they’re still weaker than EE. Virgin also have the worst 5G coverage while EE have the best"Compare pricing and deals Is Virgin Mobile's 4G slower than EE's?In terms of sheer 4G speeds, EE are by far the fastest UK provider. Along with their brilliant 4G coverage, these speeds are one of the main reasons to join on the EE network:Results from independent network testers Opensignal show that 4G speeds on EE are around Mbps against Virgin’s average speeds of Mbps. That’s a pretty big speeds in urban areas can be around 80 - 110 Mbps on both networks. In more rural areas Virgin often slows down to a crawl, while EE stays around a decent 10 - 20 if you’re an urban dweller and you want fast speeds, both networks are good options. But if you travel around a lot or you live in the countryside, EE or providers that use them might be the better option for link: Our best 5G networks guide✔ 5G speeds might be pretty closeAs 5G has been live on both networks for a while, independent network testers Opensignal and Speedtest by Ookla have had time to measure typical 5G speeds on both networks:They found typical speeds on EE between Mbps - Mbps, while Virgin host Vodafone’s were between a shocking Mbps to a speedy Mbps. We can’t really explain this variation in networks’ best 5G SIM only plansAll we can say is that if you can get peak 5G speeds, then Virgin may be slightly better. But we think you’re more likely to get consistently strong 5G speeds on EE. Either way, they’re not massively different. Useful link: Our full Virgin Mobile review "Since you’ll still spend most of your time on 4G with either provider, EE’s much faster average 4G speeds get them a win here. Virgin can compete with their peak speeds, but they will suffer more in rural areas. 5G speeds are basically a draw between them."Compare pricing and deals What else do Virgin and EE have to keep your phone connected?EE have offered WiFi calling for a longer time than Virgin, and so have had more time to develop their technology and offer it on more device both you can make/take calls and send/receive texts both via WiFi signal and 4G signal. But only EE let you transfer a call from WiFi to 4G and vice versa without your call dropping (check your phone's supported).Also Virgin support fewer models than EE (check yours here). And as soon as you lose WiFi signal or 4G signal, we found that your call will drop. It’s just not as slick a the end, EE has one of our favourite WiFi calling schemes, while Virgin’s is still a bit limited in our view, though it has got better over link: Our best-rated networks for WiFi calling✔ Virgin Mobile offer a massive network of WiFi hotspotsSince Virgin Media are also a broadband company, it makes sense that Virgin Mobile are able to offer the second largest network of WiFi hotspots in the UK. EE offer comparatively only offer 250+ hotspots on the London Underground. These are only at ticket barriers and stations, but not yet in the tunnels themselves. It’s a shame they don’t get any of BT’s 5 million+ hotspots despite EE being owned by the other hand, you’ll get access to Virgin’s million+ hotspots on all of their plans. Their app has been subject to poor reviews, but it should be able to log you in EE, Virgin get you WiFi hotspots on the London Underground. Their other hotspots will be found in restaurants, shopping centres and you also get 20 million hotspots around the link: Full details on Virgin's free WiFi scheme"While having free WiFi hotspots is nice, there’s plenty of free WiFi out there anyway. EE’s WiFi calling is easier to get working and generally works better than Virgin’s."Compare pricing and deals Which is the best for unused data?There are a few networks with data rollover. This is where the data you don’t get through in one month gets added onto your data allowance for your next month. Both Virgin and EE offer this in some any of Virgin Mobile’s plans the data you don’t manage to get through will be automatically added onto your next month’s allowance. It can help prevent you from going over your allowance if you have a bit only get to keep it for a month, however. It’s nowhere near as generous as Sky’s, which lets you keep unused data for 3 years, trade it in for discounts on devices and share it with other users on your account (see Sky’s scheme here).You’ll get through your rolled over data first, so you have the chance to use it up before it’s gone and you have the chance to get rolled over data again. At that point you should probably take a smaller deal link: Virgin Mobile's data rollover help guide✔ EE only offer data rollover on pay as you goEE are largely geared towards pay monthly plans and phone deals, but they don’t actually offer data rollover on these. The only way to get data rollover on EE is by getting a pay as you go monthly current PAYG SIM bundlesWith these bundles you’ll be able to keep your unused minutes, texts and data for a month so long as you renew your bundle. If you don’t you’ll lose them essentially the same as Virgin’s, except you don’t get it on pay monthly. This is a drawback because EE’s pay as you go bundles are fairly pricey even compared to their regular pay monthly are one of the most expensive networks. So we would like to see them add data rollover, as it would mean you could comfortably go with a smaller plan and get the most out of your data. But they don’t offer link: See latest PAYG plans"The vast majority of users will hop onto a pay monthly plan, so Virgin will be the better choice if keeping your data is a priority for you. Virgin’s deals are already better value, but with data rollover you get the most out of your deal."Compare pricing and deals There are two major benefits of getting other users onto your account with EE, whether that be adding friends or family members on new deals:The first is that you get 10% off phone contracts, SIM only plans, tablet deals or data SIMs added onto your main account - whether that be for friends or family. You also get a 1GB boost for adding new you’re also able to gift data, meaning if one of the users on your account runs out of data and another has a decent amount to spare you can transfer data over. Helpful for avoiding extra data usage to that the convenience of having all of your plans in one place and all on one monthly bill and you’ll see why EE’s Family Plan is one of our favourites out of all the link: EE's full guide to their family accounts✔ Virgin's Family plans are mostly about discountsVirgin Mobile don’t offer a whole lot of extra benefits for their home broadband or TV customers, but their Family SIM discounts are exclusive to can add up to 4x extra family SIMs to your main account whether you joined on a phone contract or a SIM only contract. You get a modest £2 off each added SIM. Not as impressive for savings, but Virgin are already we said, this discount is exclusive for Virgin Media customers. You can still add extra users to your account if you’re not a Virgin Media customer, but you won’t get the also don’t get any extra benefits like data sharing or anything like that. But it’s a good way for Virgin to reward loyalty, so if you’re a Virgin Media customer then this might be a decent reason to join Virgin link: Full ins and outs of Virgin Mobile family plans"It’s a bit of a shame that Virgin’s discount is exclusive to Virgin Media customers, as it is a really nice scheme on top of cheap prices. But EE’s will save you more money and data gifting is a useful way of avoiding extra charges."Compare pricing and deals If you join on any Virgin SIM only or phone plan then you’ll get access to one of Virgin’s brilliant benefits that makes it so the data you use on certain social media apps won’t come out of your you send a message over Facebook, download a picture from Whatsapp or scroll on Twitter you won’t use up any of your monthly data allowance. Video/audio calls on these apps will come out of your data basically means you’re getting unlimited data to use on these apps. It’s nice to have to have some peace of mind while you’re on social media. What’s even better is that it comes on even their cheapest plan:In fairness, messaging doesn’t use up much data in the first place. The biggest data savings will be from videos on Twitter, but even this doesn’t come close to networks that offer free unlimited streaming data (read our guide here).Useful link: How data-free messaging works✔ You can buy unlimited streaming data on EEJoining EE on any SIM only or phone plan gets you free trials to Apple Music, BritBox and Apple TV+ for up to 6 months which you can redeem at any you have your trials the data you use to stream these apps won’t come out of your monthly allowance, meaning you can stream without worry. But you can also get unlimited streaming data permanently:If you take a Smart Plan on EE you can choose a Video Pass that gets you unlimited streaming data for these popular video services. These are premium plans, so you’re paying a bit extra for current Smart SIM only plansAll these deals come with at least one Smart Benefit:With their Video Pass you can stream Youtube, Netflix, BBC iPlayer and more. If you often go over your data allowance then it’s worth thinking about, but you might just be better off with a bigger data link: EE's full guide to Smart Benefits"It really depends on what you want to use your phone for. If you’re using it mostly for social media then Virgin’s benefit can help you save a bit of data, while EE’s benefits will save more data overall but come at a cost."Compare pricing and deals We look at whether Virgin or EE offer the better provision for roaming abroadLike Vodafone and Three, EE have changed their EU roaming scheme so you can no longer access your regular allowance of minutes, texts and data for free while you’re you’ll have to pay a daily rate to access your allowance. At the moment they say it’s about £2 a day while you’re in their EU destinations. Even though you’re paying, you’ll also be restricted to 50GB while you’re going further afield you’ll have to pay a daily rate for a data pass. These give you a small amount of data at fairly pricey daily rates (currently between £5 - £6 depending on the destination).Or, if you’re on a Smart Plan you can choose their Roam Abroad benefit as an extra, which lets you roam for free in their EU destinations and five worldwide destinations. But remember, these are premium link: Full guide to roaming on EE's network✔ Virgin Mobile still offer inclusive EU roamingUnlike their hosts Vodafone, Virgin don’t offer any sort of worldwide roaming. But also unlike Vodafone, they’ve kept their inclusive EU roaming policy in are a few finickity fair usage policies, but unless you’re a really heavy data user we don’t think this will ever be an issue. Usually you can use around half of your data can use their calculator here to see how much data you can use while abroad. It depends on the size of your regular allowance and the cost of your outside the EU can get expensive very quickly on Virgin Mobile (1GB can cost £5000!) so you might be better off looking elsewhere if you’re going far link: Virgin's own guide to roaming"If you mainly travel within the EU, there's little to split EE and Virgin for roaming. It's only if you're going further afield that EE's Roam Further pass could save you money in select countries."Compare pricing and deals Are SIM only plans cheaper on Virgin or EE "EE aren’t really known for their cheap deals. Virgin have some very competitive prices. The main reason to join EE is their brilliant network, rather than their prices."Compare pricing and deals Current offers compared on EE and Virgin Mobile Are phone contracts better from EE or Virgin Mobile?Virgin offer their phone deals on what are called “split contracts”, where you have two separate payments. You get one finance agreement (loan) for the cost of your phone and another payment for your usage (mins, texts data).So you get a bit of flexibility in choosing your contract length (24-month or 36-month) and you can upgrade early and leave Virgin altogether by paying off the rest of your loan all at you sign up on a 36-month contract because the monthly price is cheaper, bear in mind you’re paying the same amount in the end and three years is a long commitment. You’ll also have to pass a credit check to be in general, Virgin will work out cheaper than EE for the whole contract due to their cheaper usage plans. If you want a good price and you like the look of Virgin’s network, then they’re certainly a good link: How Virgin's phone contracts work✔ EE's phone contracts offer less flexibilityEE’s phone contracts are a lot simpler, but a lot less flexible. All of their contracts are 24-months with a single payment for the cost of your phone and usage means you can’t upgrade early or change your usage plan until your contract is up, nor can you choose a contract length to suit your budget. EE’s prices also tend to be pricier when buying directly from it might be a good idea to go with a reseller like as they buy a lot of phones in bulk to sell them at a cheaper getting the same benefits as being on EE directly and it’s not like you’re sacrificing flexibility as your contract should be the same. It’s worth shopping around to see what you can link: Compare all ways to join EE and Virgin on phones"You might get a better deal going with a reseller, but Virgin are already fairly competitive for pricing and also give you a decent amount of flexibility that we think a lot of users will appreciate."Compare pricing and deals

Moje doświadczenia z Play: 1. przy automatycznym wyborze operatora - ciągłe przełączanie między sieciami -> drenowanie baterii i non stop naliczanie nowych sesji netu (miałem kilkadziesiąt sesji w ciągu dnia) 2. przy ręcznym wyborze operatora - mimo wyboru, wymuszanie przełączenia na sieć macierzystą, zlecenie wyłączenia odświeżania karty SIM nie pomogło, w niektórych miejscach Warszawy wręcz całkowita utrata zasięgu 3. niezależnie od sposobu wyboru operatora - bardzo często zapchane punkty styku i mimo pełnego zasięgu przychodził SMS, że ktoś próbował się do mnie dodzwonić 4. na zasięgu własnym - bardzo niska jakość połączeń głosowych 5. świetne usługi dodane (Stop Spam, SMS na e-mail, bramka SMS, Play24 w poprzednim wydaniu) 6. obsługa klienta przez portal internetowy na szkolną ocenę 4+ Permanentnie powtarzające się punkty 1-3 zdecydowały o moim odejściu z Play. Uważam tę sieć za dobrą do n-tego numeru, ale nie dla głównego. Zmigrowałem do Orange dla firm, gdzie oferta była OK, ale jakość też słaba: 1. dławiący się internet - zamarzające sesje 2. prędkość netu bardzo niska - w pracy ok. 7 Mbps, w domu 1,5 Mbps. 3. na imprezach masowych telefon kompletnie przestawał działać (dużo ludzi, za mała wydajność sieci) 4. wielokrotne błędy w naliczaniu opłat za usługi, co miesiąc musiałem dokładnie śledzić fakturę (wszystkie reklamacje zasadne) 5. w roamingu zagranicznym jakość taka sobie, net średnio stabilny, niezależnie od operatora 6. obsługa klienta przez portal internetowy na szkolną ocenę 4-. Od roku jestem w Plusie (Plush): 1. przedpotopowe zarządzanie kodami USSD, często coś nie działa lub działa inaczej niż powinno 2. równie archaiczny serwis internetowy 3. po każdej aktualizacji iOS zapomina ustawień MMS-ów 4. ale płacę mniej, a jakość korzystania na poziomie lepszym od obu ww. 5. net zrywa bardzo bardzo rzadko, a prędkość w pracy 140 Mbps, w domu 30 Mbps, poza Polską net też działa bardzo dobrze. 6. bateria schodzi zauważalnie wolniej niż w Play i Orange (co w sumie dziwne, bo Orange to sieć certyfikowana przez Apple, Play też choć tam baterię drenuje roaming krajowy). 7. obsługa klienta telefonicznie woła o pomstę do nieba (szkolna ocena 1=), mailowo lepiej (ocena 3), a przez Plusforum najlepiej (4-). O T-Mobile się nie wypowiem, bo nigdy nie byłem tam z głównym numerem (zniechęciły mnie ceny). Miałem tam jeszcze niedawno tylko net mobilny (10/10/10) i pamiętam beznadziejny serwis internetowy i mobilny.

All major carriers have 5G coverage—but some have a wider footprint than others. In this video, we take a look at AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon's updated 5G co
Po wczorajszym debiucie oferty internetowej w Heyah już wszyscy operatorzy mają w swoich submarkach pełną ofertę mobilną dla swoich klientów - komórkową i internetową. Czas więc porównać, czym „wielka czwórka” próbuje zatrzymać klientów uciekających od drogich abonamentów. Z pewnością wielu z Was korzystało kiedyś lub korzysta nadal z abonamentów w Orange, Play, Plus i T-Mobile. Najczęściej o wyborze danego operatora decyduje zasięg w naszej lokalizacji i chęć zakupu w ramach abonamentu smartfona. Jednak niektórzy klienci, gdy zorientują się po wzięciu kalkulatora do ręki, iż sporo przepłacają u operatorów za smartfona, którego cena zaszyta jest nie tylko w ratach, ale i w abonamentach, szukają alternatywy w postaci tańszych ofert bez zobowiązania i kupują kolejnego smartfona w sklepie. W takiej sytuacji pierwszym wyborem stają się oferty, z których można korzystać nadal z zasięgu tego samego operatora - to zrozumiałe, jeśli byliśmy do tej pory zadowoleni z jakości samych usług danego operatora. Oni to wiedzą, i głównie z tą myślą tworzone były przez nich submarki z atrakcyjnymi pakietami. Porównamy więc dzisiaj te oferty i sprawdźmy, któremu z operatorów udało się stworzyć najlepszą ofertę, by zatrzymać u siebie jak największą liczbę klientów rezygnujących z abonamentów. Do porównania weźmiemy tu najpopularniejsze abonamenty komórkowe i na internet mobilny, kosztujące w okolicach 50 zł miesięcznie i zestawimy je z ofertami w submarkach. Oferta Orange vs nju mobile W ofercie abonamentowej z dwuletnim zobowiązaniem Orange ma Plan 50 za 50 zł miesięcznie, w której do dyspozycji dostajemy pełen no limit na rozmowy i wiadomości oraz 24 GB transferu danych. Z kolei w ofercie na internet mobilny mamy plan Internet Domowy 4G za 59,99 zł miesięcznie z limitem transferu danych 250 GB w miesiącu. Natomiast w ofercie abonamentowej z miesięcznym okresem wypowiedzenia nju mobile w ofercie głosowej możemy skorzystać z planu za 29 zł miesięcznie, który zawiera limit transferu danych na poziomie 30 GB (po dwóch latach), a w ofercie na internet mobilny z planu za 29 zł miesięcznie z limitem transferu danych 120 GB - również po dwóch latach. Zsumujmy to teraz w tabelce. Porównanie ofert Orange nju mobile Orange nju mobile Rozmowy komórkowe nielimitowane nielimitowane nielimitowane nielimitowane Wiadomości SMS nielimitowane nielimitowane nielimitowane nielimitowane Wiadomości MMS nielimitowane nielimitowane nielimitowane nielimitowane Transfer danych w komórce 24 GB 30 GB 24 GB 120 GB Transfer danych w routerze 250 GB 120 GB 250 GB 120 GB Abonament razem 109,99 zł 58 zł 109,99 zł 87 zł Różnica 51,99 zł Różnica 22,99 zł W nju mobile mamy więcej GB w ofercie głosowej, ale o połowę mniej w ofercie na internet mobilny. Jednak z zapasem 52 zł miesięcznie, który możemy przeznaczyć na droższy plan za 39 zł z 60 GB transferu danych, do którego możemy dokupić usługę internet dodatkowy za 19 zł z limitem 60 GB. Łącznie więc możemy uzyskać 240 GB transferu w miesiącu i nadal zostaje nam w kieszeni 23 zł w porównaniu z abonamentami w Orange. Oferta Play vs Virgin Mobile Główna submarka Play, czyli Red Bull Mobile nie ma typowo internetowej oferty, więc do porównania weźmiemy ofertę Virgin Mobile, które zostało nie tak dawno przejęte przez Play. Abonament głosowy w Play kosztuje 45 zł miesięcznie z limitem transferu danych 40 GB, a abonament na internet mobilny bez urządzenia dla posiadaczy abonamentu głosowego 50 zł z limitem 200 GB. Tu korzystniej będzie jednak dla abonamentu Play porównać dedykowany plan dla oferty głosowej + internetu mobilnego za 75 zł - Play Homebox, więc w tabelce porównawczej pojawią się dwie opcje w Play. Virgin Mobile natomiast ma tylko jeden abonament głosowy bez zobowiązania, który kosztuje 29 zł i zawiera dużo mniejszy limit 15 GB transferu danych, za to w ofercie internetu mobilnego mamy już 220 GB za 45 zł miesięcznie. Porównanie ofert Play Virgin Mobile Play Virgin Mobile Rozmowy komórkowe nielimitowane nielimitowane nielimitowane nielimitowane Wiadomości SMS nielimitowane nielimitowane nielimitowane nielimitowane Wiadomości MMS nielimitowane płatne nielimitowane płatne Transfer danych w komórce 40 GB 15 GB 150 GB 15 GB Transfer danych w routerze 200 GB 220 GB 200 GB 220 GB Abonament razem 95 zł 74 zł 75 zł 74 zł Różnica 21,00 zł Różnica 1,00 zł Jak widać, w przypadku Play pomijając dwuletni okres zobowiązania, aktualnie mają lepszą ofertę niż w swojej submarce. Oferta Plus vs Plush Przechodzimy już do naszego zielonego operatora. Plus w abonamencie głosowym ma plan za 50 zł z limitem 24 GB transferu danych, a w ofercie internetu mobilnego plan również za 50 zł miesięcznie dla posiadaczy oferty głosowej z limitem 250 GB transferu danych. Natomiast w submarce Plush możemy skorzystać z oferty z miesięcznym okresem wypowiedzenia w planie za 25 zł miesięcznie i 20 GB transferu danych (po dwóch latach). Z kolei w ofercie internetu mobilnego mamy jeden plan za 30 zł z limitem 80 GB transferu danych (po roku). Porównanie ofert Plus Plush Rozmowy komórkowe nielimitowane nielimitowane Wiadomości SMS nielimitowane nielimitowane Wiadomości MMS nielimitowane nielimitowane Transfer danych w komórce 24 GB 20 GB Transfer danych w routerze 250 GB 80 GB Abonament razem 100 zł 55 zł Różnica 45,00 zł Widać tu znaczącą różnicę w cenach, ale i jeszcze bardziej znaczącą w ofercie. Abonamenty w Plusie wypadają dużo korzystniej, jeśli chodzi o transfer danych, zwłaszcza w ofercie internetu mobilnego. Oferta T-Mobile vs Heyah Na koniec został nam T-Mobile z ofertą głosową za 55 zł miesięcznie z limitem transferu 40 GB oraz z internetem mobilnym za 40 zł bez limitu transferu, jedynie z limitem prędkości do 30 Mb/s. Heyah natomiast ma dwa plany po 19,99 zł miesięcznie, plan głosowy z limitem 20 GB transferu danych, a plan internetu mobilnego z 50 GB. Porównanie ofert T-Mobile Heyah Rozmowy komórkowe nielimitowane nielimitowane Wiadomości SMS nielimitowane nielimitowane Wiadomości MMS nielimitowane nielimitowane Transfer danych w komórce 40 GB 20 GB Transfer danych w routerze nielimitowane 50 GB Abonament razem 95 zł 39,98 zł Różnica 55,02 zł Tu podobnie jak w Plusie, duża różnica w cenie i spora dysproporcja w zawartości. Tak więc jak pokazuje powyższe zestawienie, najlepiej przygotowaną ofertę dla uciekających od abonamentu ma obecnie Orange w swojej submarce nju mobile, nie dziwi więc, iż to ta submarka ma najwięcej klientów spośród całej czwórki. Ostatnie dane mówią o ponad 1 mln klientów, wśród których z pewnością jest sporo osób uciekających z abonamentów u konkurencji. Stock Image from Depositphotos.

I need some help deciding if Virgin is the best option? Plan needs; two good smart phones. Unlimited everything (although, minutes could be limited if around 1,500). I'm wondering which is the most affordable and reasonable in the long run? To simply buy two good phones (like the evo 4g or galaxy s2) and go with Virgin for the $45 or $55 plan
Home Media Favorites Menu Devices Apps & Games Android Lounge Automotive App Development Smart Home Wearables Browse More Thread Starter I've been with vm for almost 3 years now, I'm happy with what they provided and its always easy to be with prepaid. However, I'm switching to t mobile $30 web exclusive prepaid. Don't get me wrong, vm is a great prepaid, but the lack of coverage like in my area, is near impossible to send text messages in the house. Even when I got 4 out of 5 bars out door, would still get messages delay or cannot receive calls (mt and evo v). I wonder does anyone has the same thought as I do. Also, I have read that is possible to transfer number, is there anything I should pay attention or need if I want to keep my account? Thanks for reading this long post. Download the Forums for Android™ app! Download I switched from VM to T-Mobile prepaid and have been quite happy. Coverage is similar, but I'm getting much better speeds from T-Mobile. My 3G speeds on VM were typically under 500 Kbps and too frequently under 100 kbps, with T-Mobile my worst speeds are over Mbps and are typically double that up to about 8 Mbps on my Galaxy Nexus. You can transfer your number but it will cancel/close your VM account, as they use your phone number as the account number. Thread Starter Thanks mogelijk. The galaxy s2 deal makes me think about this. Also my housemate who are having t mobile phone, they get 4 bars in the basement and with vm I only get non to 1 on the top floor.. Btw, do I need to call VM before I transfer my number? No, you do not need to call Virgin Mobile. If it isn't an option to transfer your number when you activate (depending on how you activate), just call T-Mobile and they will transfer your number for you. The Galaxy S2 looks like a good deal, though I still like the Google Galaxy Nexus since it gets the Android updates right after they are released. Of course, the Galaxy Nexus is $50 more currently, though it's replacement (which appears to be an LG Optimus Nexus) should be announced next week. It is one of the advantages of T-Mobile Monthly, you can use any phone that works on their network. You just need to order a SIM Card Activation Kit. Yeah i am doing the same thing tomorrow. It is awful how bad the coverage is with virgin. I already paid for a month of service with Virgin and only had it 4 days -_- i'm going to try and sell my account and maybe recoup at least 20-25 dollars. Idk why i came back to them. Although today i was out and about in the city(I went early voting) and i did finally experience 4g coverage for once...although we were in walmart parking lot when i got it and we literally moved over 2 rows in the walmart parking lot and i didn't get the 4g signal anymore and the 3G was abysmal. So i guess t-mobile Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G is what i'll get tomorrow or i'll get the Nokia Lumia 710 for monthly 4G. I keep seeing the commercial and they show a white s3 being held when they talk about monthly 4g, but I go on t-mobiles website and they don't show it What do you consider abysmal? This is about as good as it gets for 3G in Vegas. 4G is alright, usually between 4mb to as high as 12mb down. Attached Files: I'm gonna wait til network vision rolls out here. Too hard to let unlimited data go for $35. My data for the Evo V has never been throttled even after over 4 GB of data used per month, I still get full 3G/4G data speeds. You can buy any compatible phone and use it on T-Mobile Monthly. If you want an S3, likely the best way is to buy the phone for full price from a T-Mobile store. Then you just need a Prepaid Sim Activation Kit to set it up on a prepaid plan. You can buy the Kit from the T-Mobile store or Walmart (though apparently most charge between $8 and $15) but it is cheaper on the website ($1) -- it typically takes just under a week to get one from the website. This is one of the advantages of T-Mobile's prepaid, you can use any GSM compatible phone, regardless of where you purchase the phone (so long as the phone is not stolen or otherwise has an invalid ESN). While I realize the $30 T-Mobile prepaid plan is not for everyone, due to having only 100 talk minutes, getting 5GB before throttling at "3G" (HSPA+) speeds that are as fast as WiMax -- without the disadvantages of WiMax) is really nice. I'm still considering that plan lol I don't use much mins but still go over 100. 200 minutes would be okay, so that'd be $40 at 10 cents a minute which still isn't bad considering you can use any unlocked gsm phone. Depends on how much I'd be able to get one of the new nexus models, I just might jump ship...especially if the J Butterfly based Nexus would come to fruition. -drools- I'll probably switch to the tmobile 30$ plan later on and get a galaxy nexus or Samsung galaxy s2. Maybe in a month when the price drops. I'm sorry sprint and virgin mobile but your speeds for 3g are way to sluggish in certain areas and Wimax is severally limited. even when you unleash the power of s off, and radios. Another option to consider for extra minutes, especially if you are around WiFi part of the time, is to use a VoIP program. I use Google Voice with GrooveIP, but only have it connect when I'm connected to WiFi. It's a good way to "extend" your minutes without paying extra. Nexus 4 here I come! $299 and $349 for 16 GB and 32 gb, respectively So this will work on t mobile monthly 4g but without 4g? Does the $50 plan work too? ^Yeah, when your activating your Sim, pick the $50 plan, I'm only doing the $30 plan because of the 5gb of data I think it's 8 and 16 GB only. Was curious, with the price on the Nexus 4, if they lowered the price on the Galaxy Nexus. I found the Galaxy Nexus is no longer being sold from the Play Store (message on the page, "Galaxy Nexus HSPA+ is no longer available for sale." On the front page of the Play store, they do show the new Nexus devices and you can sign up to be notified when they go on sale. Google PlayCorrect, and no micro SD card slot. I like keeping mucho music on my phone. No SD card is a deal breaker for me. Bummer. They go on sale 11/13. I'll just go back to using Google Music and utilize Google Drive and Dropbox. No big deal to me. Quad core will be sweet. Considering switching from VM to TMobile. For the Nexus 4, the micro SIM activation kit would be the correct option correct? Share This Page
Okay, so I'm currently wanting to buy an iPhone. I'll likely wait until the iPhone 6, but I wanted to know which no contract service is the best/cheapest in your guys' opinions. On Virgin Mobile, the iPhone 5s 16GB costs $550, while on T-Mobile the iPhone costs $648 and the plan is more. I would be getting the $30 dollars a month plan.
Home Media Favorites Menu Devices Apps & Games Android Lounge Automotive App Development Smart Home Wearables Browse More I am currently on Virgin Mobile's Beyond Talk plan which is $25 per month and has 3G speeds with unlimited web, data, messaging, and email plus 300 minutes. T-Mobile has a plan that is $30 per month and has 4G speeds with unlimted web and text plus 100 minutes. I'm thinking of making the switch from Virgin Mobile to T-Mobile. Anyone know how the service compares? It's $5 more per month and has less minutes, but I'm tempted by the 4G. Download the Forums for Android™ app! Download TMO is also GSM. It means some things will be done differently. And it will depend on the bands on your phone. TMO uses the 1700 band, but the newer phones will do 1900. TMO does have value "bring your own phone" plans where you don't get charged for a subsidized amount. For practical purposes, it means you won't be able to use the same phone on T-Mobile that you used with Virgin Mobile. I'd been using T-Mobile for 2 1/2 years before I just canceled. Great customer service. Very reliable (no dropped calls or finicky connections). Better integration with Google Voice than Virgin Mobile (not sure if that matters to you). And the 4G speeds are fast (maybe not as fast as LTE, but fast still). I ended up switching just because T-Mobile's coverage in certain less-populated areas isn't that good, and I do sometimes visit some remote suburbs (not always in urban settings). I don't know if this has changed, but when I used Virgin Mobile, it was renting its network from Sprint, and I think Sprint has better coverage than T-Mobile does (in terms of area). Hey I am thinking of switching from VM to TMO since vm is hardly breaking 1mbps. What kinds of speeds would you get from TMO (i am sure it would be a little better now since they are close to LTE). Also, how was the general coverage (3G/LTE vs 2G etc) as you went about your daily life? Thanks Ugh, always kills me when I see how much folks pay for their plans. I have to bend over every month for Verizon. Ever hear the phrase "You get what you pay for?" There's a reason the plans are so cheap. I was so tempted by their $30 monthly 4G plan that I jumped off a very grandfathered plan to take advantage of it. I was sworn to that nothing would change by way of level of customer service I was receiving. Bullsh*t. I came to find this was NOT the case. I always liked using their chat function to troubleshoot with tech when I had a problem. It kept my hands free so I coupd go through their steps on the phone. I don't know if it was just my account or if all of their customer service took a nosedive, but I found I was no longer able to chat with tech, and the troubleshooting chat reps could only tell me to pull the battery or do a factory reset. So I took my phone into the store. The chick working the counter was like "Oh yeah I can fix that, give me a few minutes." I walk around the store for a few and she calls me back. The b*tch had moved all my apps to my sd card! She did NOT ask permission to do this! What's worse, many of my widgets and shortcuts were displaying errors! I told her to put everything back and set me up for a warranty replacement. First she told me my phone was out of warranty. It was an HTC Amaze that was just launched in NOVEMBER. She did a second look and found out I was right. Then she said in order to do a warranty replacement I would have to send in my phone first and take a loaner dumbphone in the meantime since I was now on the monthly 4G plan. Again, bullsh*t. I've done several warranty replacements while on T-Mo's post paid plans and they went flawlessly. That was the tipping point for me to switch to Verizon. OP, take all this into consideration. But since you asked about speed, they are fast but coverage is a huge huge issue. ETA: T-Mo recently laid off thousands of employees and shut down 7 call centers, including one just a few miles from where I live. While getting my account set up at Verizon I had to call T-Mo to get my account number to port my phone number over. THEY'VE OUTSOURCED THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE!!! i am hearing very mixed reviews- some folks say they are awesome, others not so much- the '4g' is what i really like however i am concerned about coverage etc- i live in a pretty suburban area, no huge distances between centers of towns and populations etc so i am confident i would have great service, but still a little ehh vm is great (for the most part) except the recent text outages and stuff like that- not sure what to do!! haha Gmash Extreme Android User Take any opinions or experiences on a forum like this with a grain of salt. ALL carrier coverage issues depend hugely on where you live and plan to use your phone. I have Cricket and have full bars everywhere in my building at work. A co worker has Verizon and barely gets a signal at all. It all depends where the towers are. Try asking people in your area about their service. Greatly depends on your location. At work inside my building/office, I get measly GPRS speeds (~50Kbps up/down). If I go outside to the parking lot, I get 1Mbps. At home 6Mbps. yeah i mean VM i am getting just about 1mbps anywhere and frequently way less- .7mbps to .5mbps at the lowest ive seen- its really sucky but i do have the $25/mo plan and the 300min while i dont use them all now is nice to have... Its an issue of sacrificing ok coverage with godawful speeds for decent speeds and no coverage haha Share This Page
