Alright, brehs

Been with Sprint since i worked for them (2001) and need a change of scenery. Sprint's been good to me for the most part but thinking about going to a GSM carrier for a while now and the time has come now that i have ordered my OnePlus II :lolbron:phone from www.oneplus.net .

Since i want togo strictly GSM my options are T-Mobile or AT&T

Honorable mentions are Cricket or Google's Project FI but
Cricket does not yet support international roaming and since i often travel for work i gotta have a carrier that supports international roaming
Project-FI seems to put emphasis on using your googleVoice number whereas i wanna keep both

Problem with T-Mobile is... the whole data throttling thing has me like :francis:
I could probably go for AT&T but I hated these fukkers since i worked for them. I worked for them after i resigned from Sprint. One of the worst companies to work for.. i resigned after barely 4 months on the job


So tell me what kind of plans you guys have with these carriers and how it works out for you overall

Never cared for Verizon. Too expensive and the fact that they are a CDMA carrier it never made sense to me to switch to them from Sprint since it's pretty much the same thing except better coverage but ive never had coverage issues with Sprint so why bother go for VZ if it's just gonna be more expensive

I used to work for AT&T and have had them since 1997. I just recently switched to T-Mobile 2 months ago. I was paying $175 for two lines and a shared 15GB data plan and unlimited Talk and Text. Now with T-Mobile, I have 5 lines, unlimited Talk and text and 10GB for each line totalling $140. PLUS they paid for my cancellation fees, gave me $400 for my old AT&T phone and and gave me the Note 5 for $9 per month. Same thing for my girl (who in also put on my account). In 2015 the difference in coverage for the top 3 (Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile) aren't that different (especially where I live). Besides if I drop a call or lose coverage every blue moon, its not the end of the world. And their roaming is good too. No international roaming in Mexico and Canada.

I've only dropped a call twice and had delayed text messages once. Indoor coverage is great (because they just acquired that low frequency band). And I also download an average of 30MBpS when on 4G.
