Lol , don't quit your day job. T-Mobile is king in NYC. Even on 1 bar I'm getting 8mbs.
With a $7.2billion profit last year it's obvious AT&T can't afford it. :-/
I hate these companies... All of them.
Yeah well charge me less for your service if I buy my own device outright and then we can talk about it.
Don't worry....you won't be able to use too many minute with T-Mobile on the back of their crappy network alone.
The carrier that keeps subsidies the longest will have a TON of subscribers.
they have the right to charge what they want. If you can't afford don't buy! Or buy used
Maybe if they started to give real discounts to phones off contract people would change their buying habits.. Instead you still pay the same price for your old plan, doesn't matter if its on or off contract. And while your at it AT&T get rid of the charge for Texting, should be included in Data!!! Stop making plans that you say are better but in reality are worse!
I already own my iPhone 5s.
So where's the $45/mo plan ??
You can do that with T-Mobile / MetroPCS.
Buy your own phone.
Choose a plan from T-Mobile / Metro PCS.
It can be as inexpensive as $25 a month per line if you have 4 lines.
Or $30 a month per line if you have 3 lines.
If you want just 1 line, MetroPCS has $40 a month for unlimited talk, text, data.
Since it's no contract, you can CANCEL anytime with no penalty.
Perhaps AT&T should make those who sign 2-year contracts to get a subsidized phone live out said contracts. Start there.
I upgrade every two because my carrier (VZW) charges me for the subsidy whether or not my phone is paid for. I think that is why most upgrade. If they no longer want to do the subsidy, then I will replace my phone as needed which would result in me replacing my phone a lot less often, which would result in my carrier making less money every year.
It's at aio wireless for 2 gigs a month. 7 gigs is 70.
wow! People on these forums have become more whiney by the day.
Let's see I bought my first car phone in 1992 It cost around$700 my phone bill
was around $100/month This allowed me 60min of talk time/ month every min over that
was around $2.50. The phone was anchored in my car like all phones at that time, of course all it could do is make phone calls. Cut to the present. I still pay $100 a month. My phone fits in my front pocket of my jeans, I have unlimited talk time, unlimited data Long distance is free. My phone is a full fledged computer that has more memory and processing power than my desktop had a few years ago, I can watch tv, have face to face conversations, listen to my entire music library, edit movies, take hd movies with greater resolution and quality than my home video camera 5 years ago could do. I can surf the web, check my email, get information about any subject, the phone can talk with me and set up appointments with just my voice. etc. So basically the cost has remained the same for 20 years yet the capabilities have exponentially increased! unfortunately
all this freedom and capabilities have created more time for peoples to troll
on these forums to complain and whine.
Shouldn't your bitching be aimed more towards Apple for over charging for the phone in the first place? Considering it only costs a few 100 dollars to make. They don't subsidy phones in Europe do they? Are we just spoiled Americans that we get cheap phones?
Go ahead and stop giving me a subsidy. I'll go to Verizon or Sprint.
Most android high-end phones are sold at a loss Samsung is the only one probably making profitsHow do we know they're specifically targeting Apple? For all we know, they could subsidize Android phones more than the Apple ones by giving away many of them for free. Also, model revisions come out more abundantly there than they do in the Apple world.
