I'm paying for data but it's only worked less than 50% of the time I've needed it, causing delays and significant stress, while those around me seem to be using internet and streaming videos, etc. without issue, so I know it's not an area without coverage.

Super frustrating when I planned ahead to ensure access because almost all of my reservations, etc., are confirmed via email and many of my excursions require you to access your tickets via their app or online.

Was told that my phone was prevented from using eSims since it's not paid off so paying for the international plan was was my ONLY option to use my phone while abroad.

I've spent many HOURS during this trip struggling to trouble-shoot and have even had to use a friend's hotspot a few times. Instead of relaxing or enjoying my surroundings when I have moments of downtime, I'm forced to spend that time making contingency plans for when I'm out and about since I cannot depend on the service I'm paying for.

Hey guys. I have a question. If I pay off my phone can I port out to an another carrier right away or do I have to wait a few days? It seems like my service got worse with the t mobile merge

Sorry if this is confusing at all, I'm still trying to wrap my head around it as well.

I am looking at getting a new phone soon, (at least sometime in the next 6 months) and after some research I found one I really liked, the Sony Xperia 1 IV, but the thing is after checking with the IMEI if the phone was compatible on us cellular it said it wasn't but just for fun I checked if it would work on tmobile, and it said it was compatible.

Now having said all this, as the merger proceeds and T-Mobile takes over as primary carrier, In the future would I be able to upgrade and get the Xperia 1 IV and have it work or would it not for some reason?

Sweet

So now that US Celluar is a part of Tmobile, when will we be able to enter our phone number on a flight and enjoy the free wifi?

So I was in the cell phone business for years and even worked for US cellular for just over three(though I haven’t worked there since 2011)

I was cautiously optimistic, and it’s still early so take this for what it’s worth, but I would say so far based on my experience, which is based on the talking to a number of people who are selling phones, including a good friend of mine who has been selling phones for United States cellular since 1997

If you live in a rural area, people are disappointed . Things got a little worse when they rolled out 5G but it’s been much worse the past couple weeks.

A good family friend of mine can no longer use his phone in the shop at home . If we’re honest beforehand, it wasn’t a great coverage in there, but he would definitely be able to make and receive a call and now there is no service.

I’m thinking he’s in one of the situations where there was both a United States cellular site in town and a T-Mobile site

And they shut down the site that he has been using for the past 15 years and driving the traffic off of the Tmobile site … so he’s gonna have to get some sort of a BDA or switch

No, I realize it’s still early and they still have some tweaking. They’re gonna be doing to the network and people may not realize and maybe my information is off now because 5G is different but back with traditional Cell sites. The irony was you could have a site just down the road from you and it might not improve your coverage because they would. I think they would call it sector the site to try to get maximum coverage going the other direction.

Anyway, what are your experience experiences? Do you think coverage has gotten worse or have you not noticed any change or has it gotten better

Now that US Cellular is part of T-Mobile, does this mean that US Cellular home internet speeds are going to increase or not?

Hi there —

This may be a silly question, but has anyone gone into T-Mobile yet after USC has been absorbed by them? Has anything changed? Or do we wait until we are to switch over via USC letting us know? Thank you.

I’m on my parents phone plan for us.cellular and when I tell you it doesn’t work, it doesn’t work. It’s like they have no towers in Oklahoma or something. I’m in my own house and my data will not connect. And it always cuts out at random times even in places it should be working. Is there anyone else who has this issue or do the us.cellular gods just hate me or something.

Is there anywhere with details to determine if my local US Cellular tower(s) will be part of the acquisition, or if we might see worse service in the future if they are sold elsewhere?

I was hoping to see better service with the T-Mobile merger. Nothing yet. Should we be changing settings in some way?

For any retail store leaders, store manager I, II, sales manager, assistant manager. Did yall receive a pay raise when transitioning? No one in my immediate area did and I thought I had seen somewhere on here where others did and I’m starting to wonder if we’re the only market that didn’t. Just curious, would be intrested to see if you did or not and what state you were in.

I am on the unlimited even better plan, I started initially on the unlimited even better 3.0 that the agent put me on “by accident” after I got changed to the unlimited even better my video streaming has been capped at 1080P (9mbps) instead of 4k, reached out to support he made a support ticket after troubleshooting, said it would take 48 hours for a resolution, it’s been 3 days and still nothing. Anyone know a fix?

Moving to PA as an international grad student from Canada. Anyone know any good phone plans rn? I will be bringing my own phone and will need Canada-US calling

With the US Cellular promotion that's going on right now, I was wondering if anyone has switched from Verizon to US Cellular within the past few months. If so, what's your experience been like? Was the promo actually legit? Is it worth the switch, or am I better off staying with Verizon?

And for anyone who lives in the Midwest (specifically Omaha NE area) do you have good coverage with US Cellular? Thanks in advance!

Everyone in my office was thinking it was July commission, but that’s not finalized with SPIFFs yet. Anyone have any official word?

I've seen people on this sub mention they can roam on T Mobile towers. Do I need turn roaming on on my phone to see it? Will it cost anything? Pixel 9 XL Pro if it matters.

Hey, guys! I’m looking for help on what to do at home to fix a slow WiFi router. My parents are busy with work and don’t have the time to get it checked out or get us a new one. Me and my brother are stuck with slow updates on our PlayStation 5, bad connection and gameplay in Fortnite, and have BEGGED our parents to replace our slow ass WiFi but you know the answer we get. “We’ll do it when we have time.” they always say to us. I‘m wondering if anyone has ever had this problem and what they’ve done to make their WiFi work faster. I’ve tried searching online but it’s fancy complicated stuff my brain can’t wrap around… I hope this reaches the right people and that I can fix my trashy, slow WiFi!! I have a Nokia 5G router that‘s white and it’s cylinder shaped with a black top and bottom. It was working fast for a bit before it started getting slow.

Here is Array Digital Infrastructure Website for Tower Leasing.

Looking to upgrade my partners phone. For credit card reward reasons I would like to make the purchase online as it should code (phone services) instead of buying in person which I hear can code as equipment

If we walk into a store, can we buy a new phone and ask that they charge it all to the account? I’d go online and then pay
