T-mobile to go. Any good?

Hello I know 5 people with T-mobile to go {prepaid phone}. I only know one of them that had problems, everyone else seems to like theres just fine, and free of problems . Is anyone out there having any problems? The one I know that had problems was told her number was stolen and she would have to start over {$100 worth of minutes Lossed} . Can your number be stolen? she had a secure account.

They are not fine Americans but they are cheap. One of my seven mobile phones has them as a carrier and I can make calls. Of course every carrier gives me 5 bars in the swamps of Jersey.

I've had no problems with them (but then again I only bought the phone a couple weeks ago). Very easy to add minutes, check your account online, check your balance and minutes from your handset, etc. More often than not you're able to purchase Airtime Minute Refill Cards at discounts (most of the time at 8% or more off face value) through online retailers, ebay, or when Target or other B&M stores have specials/sales (not as often).

T-mo-2-Go is GREAT for people who use it infrequently (no daily charge, minutes last 1 year once you're a Gold Reward Member), or for people who use it often (purchase airtime at $0.10/min or LESS, NO extra fees).

The only downsides I can honestly see about T-mo-2-Go is IF you get NO reception where you're at (then switch prepaid providers to someone who DOES work in your area), OR if most your friends are using Cingular/AT&T and you want to use the Cingular $0.10 Pay-As-You-Go-Plan to get Unlimited M2M on Cingular/AT&T's network (but you'll have to pay a $1 daily usage fee... so this may only be worth it to you IF you use your phone fairly often on days you DO use your phone: $30 for 30 days of Unlimited M2M, not including minutes outside of their network).

:clap3:


EDIT: Forgot to mention that with T-mo-2-Go, once you're a Gold Rewards Member, you can carry over your unused almost-expired minutes for ANOTHER YEAR just by adding at least $10 to your account! I added about 4,000 minutes to my account (much more than I'd ever use off my prepaid in 1 year), and at the end of this year I'll just add a $10 refill card (the smallest denomination they have) and carry my unused minutes through NEXT YEAR! No other prepaid service allows you to do that with $10! :mobile:

I agree with everything that chokaay posted above. I think they are one of the best PP carriers around for the money, and if their service works well in your area you can't go wrong by giving them a try.
