My friend has a Verizon iphone 5 and wants to switch to T-mobile. She knew going in that if she wants the full Tmobile spectrum (AWS, HSPA+ 42 & LTE) that she'd need the new T-Mobile phone. She currently has a T-Mobile sim on the $30 prepaid plan to test out service in her area, and planned to use that with the new T-Mobile iphone 5. The rep she spoke to told her that the $30 plan won't give her "full tower access" on her Verizon iPhone OR the T-Mobile phone, but the $60 plan will ..he specifically promised her LTE even. On her Verizon iPhone.
She texted me to ask me what I think and I told her I think he's mistaken and sent her a link to this article - http://www.tmonews.com/2013/03/taki...urrent-iphone-5-and-how-it-works-on-t-mobile/ ...he took a look at it and said it's wrong. She believed him. She signed up for the $60 plan and kept her Verizon iPhone. She saw 4G on her phone and was convinced she had "full tower access" ... drove 10 miles and is now stuck on Edge.
Am I terribly confused or did this rep give her bad information??
