- Their accounts are not unlimited high-speed (LTE). They are Unlimited NON-LTE, and give you up to 22G of LTE depending on how much you want to pay.
This is essentially the same deal that T-Mobile is offering direct. photonut4 wrote:
I just got an email from them also, and the biggest difference that I can tell is they now run off of the T-Mobile network now. Does anyone have experience with that network? Their coverage map does not seem to be as extensive at Verizon's.
That's the key. If they have coverage in your area, it tends to be quite good. I'm getting 8.6Mb down/8.7Mb up from a tower aprox 7 miles away. Paying $65. month unlimited hotspot on biz account.photonut4 wrote:

You are looking at an OLD coverage map. T-mobile has recently upgraded (This year) both coverage and 4Glte coverage. now there are still gaps, but they are smaller and a lot fewer in number than they were, The map is nearly as complete as Verizon's and the service .. Well there is a reason I'm a T-mobile customer.
My phone now does 4GLte here in Darien where as last year it did "Watch grass Grow" as it were.- I'm using a T-Mobile plan from another MVNO, and as said, if your device covers Band 12, the coverage has gotten quite good, although not up to Verizon standards yet. Our Verizon Jetpack 20GB plan is still our "go to" when we need the best coverage. Our T-Mobile speeds at our current location are not the fastest we've seen, but are certainly usable.
- I have T-mobile and AT&T. I have never found a place where AT&T had a signal and T-mob did not -- except Yosemite Valley.
In the west, they generally have signal in every city, most towns, and along every major highway, and generally have about a 50% chance of coverage in national forests and such. There are definitely exceptions. - One difference is, that after September 6, 2016 new T-mobile accounts will NOT include free tethering. Data will be sold at $15 for 5 gigs.
It won't matter if you are an existing client, because you will be grandfathered in.dons2346 wrote:

- Hi,
If the device uses band 12 then t-mobile is in the #2 spot coverage wise.
I can tell you that t-mobile will work in all areas of Canada that have cell phone service. - i know somebody using t-mo
he is mobile I.T.
he gets down load speeds of 3-4 mbps
he is very happy with the service
he is NOT an RVr and does his down time travel via airplane
can't speak for their coverage map, but he prefers t-mo to verizon - I think the hotspot used is T-Mobile's (ZTE Falcon Z-917) . . . so the old (Verizon) Millenicom does not appear to be back.
