Anyone else experiencing degraded service on Straight Talk AT&T SIM?
Things I experience in past 2 weeks
- Dropped Calls (been experiencing like 1-3 times daily in the past few days)
- Lots of static in calls everyday or simply the persons voice starts to get choppy/cut to the point i cant hear anything...
- My contacts telling me my phone comes as busy when I am not on my phone at all during random times (doesn't happen daily but does happen)
- I do not over use data...700MB-1.3GB/month
I have simple mobile service on another line and that works fine (yes its on T-Mobile towers I'm aware)
Anyone else experiencing such issues? In Chicago or anywhere else...this happens to me on every call now...
EDIT: Update 1)
Words from Straight Talk Customer Service:
I was on a "old" plan since I started my service in mid FEB, according the rep AT&T is testing a "new" plans with Straight talk which will allow customers to connect to "3G" and "4G" I'm guessing HSPA (up to 14Mbps) and HSPA+21? So she "switched" me to the new plan, I asked her where can I find the information on their site and she said this is something only employees are told as it should offer customers better experience.
Surprisingly she did not recommend or offer to replace my SIM with T-Mobile one.
Will report back in a day or two to see if her switching me to "new" plan inside their system is making anything better.
