I was on T-Mobile for 4 years and just moved to Verizon. When you put aside all the gimmicks of free pizza and cheaper gas on Thursdays and really compare apples to apples, Verizon and AT&T are way ahead of the game.

I recently drove across the country and needed solid internet for work, I had one T-Mobile phone and another AT&T device. After having to stop about 30 times for internet in random places in the middle of no-where in Arizona, New Mexico and Texas, I think 29 out of those 30 times T-Mobile had no signal. AT&T on the other-hand was strong and had zero issues. There is nothing like being 50 miles from the closest gas station and still able to watch videos on YouTube (not while driving).

I moved to Verizon instead of AT&T due to the better plans and still great signal. I still have one T-Mobile phone, but signal, internet speed and call quality I notice are much better with Verizon.

I always find it amusing taking a T-Mobile phone out of the country, you get the free roaming which is awesome, but the signal from their roaming partners with are better than T-Mobile in the US.
 
I've been wanting to switch from Verizon to T-Mobile for quite some time... However, the "required" insurance destroys this deal for me. But it's a good deal for those who can make it work.
 
I switched 2 lines yesterday. My husbands and my iPhone 7+'s to be paid off total $1545- online says approved already

Monday when my son is back home - I will port his iPhone 7 plus over as well

Service wise I have dropped one call -Data is faster in my home so far

Verdict is still out if I will remain with T-Mobile. If it works out -I will move one more line by the end of the month - an iPad

Update:

I already know from Day 2 - I have dropped 3 calls now. I also dont like the tmobile website- the information is not as up front as Verizons.
