Doubtful with the size of their userbase. |

Well for shitty coverage they have ill take this as a trade off, plus they still have the cheapest plans. |

I'm pretty sure the whole point of this is to pilfer customers from Sprint, At&t and Verizon. |

Do you ever have anything positive to say? Every post I ever see from you is always negative in nature. |

I seriously doubt we'll ever see this. I know of some T-Mobile users on grandfathered plans running upwards of 200GB monthly without a word from T-Mobile. I think one is even a user here, though his username escapes me. |

I simply stated when customers all start maxing out connections their network would suffer. Someone mentioned that they don't have to worry about that due to a small subscriber base. If they get millions of people to come over form Sprint, at&t and Verizon their subscriber base won't be so small will it? Thus the congestion issue I referred to WILL happen. Which part was too difficult for you to understand? |

Just renewed a week ago, and in a few days I was up to 1/2GB used, then about 1.5 days ago data consumed went to 0GB.. (unlimited???)
Then again, there is a price.. TM's data network has been flaking out more than usual lately. |

Can T-mo fix the high bandwidth w/high latency and recurring DNS lookup issues? When google doesn't load immediately, it's usually a good sign of a VERY poor provider. |

I just left verizon and got a gsm galaxy nexus, to go prepaid AT&T or T-mobile. Currently on straight talk, but this might tempt me. |

These arguments remind me of the "Exa Flood" cries of the previous decade, which we all know never happened-- nor will they. Even in the face of incredible traffic growth, technology and capacity still outpaced demand.
It's not that carriers CAN'T increase capacity. They don't WANT to spend the money. They use caps to avoid having to invest more quickly in tower expansions.
Meanwhile they rake in BILLIONS in profits every quarter. Profits, not gross revenue. And billions with a B, not millions. |

Because cash is the only thing holding up tower expansions? Construction permits, community relations, and ROI all come into play too. |
