#T MOBILE JOIN TOGETHER UPGRADE#

T-Mobile has promised regulators that it won’t raise prices for three years after the merger is complete, but there’s no telling what will happen after those three years is up.

That said, only time will tell if the merger has a negative impact on the mobile service landscape as a whole, or if it will ultimately be worth it. This is a complicated process, both technically and in terms of the business structure. Either way, it will be a matter of years - not months - before Sprint is completely gone. How long until Sprint is completely gone?Īccording to T-Mobile, it will take three years to completely integrate the two networks, but it’s currently unclear if that’s an estimate for just the technical side of things, or the customer base too. Considering T-Mobile’s current partnership with Netflix, it’s hard to see that happening, at least while that partnership is still in effect. It’s unclear if T-Mobile customers will eventually see Sprint benefits, like Hulu and Tidal. T-Mobile will likely even offer home internet over 5G to rural customers as Verizon has done. But as mentioned, that’s a long-term change and is unlikely to happen for a while.Įventually, T-Mobile will be able to offer better service and more features, thanks to its now huge wealth of spectrum. Perhaps the biggest change for T-Mobile subscribers will be access to a larger combined network. T-Mobile subscribers won’t see any major changes in the short term, and in the long term, they may only see minor changes. Namely, they’ll eventually be able to take advantage of a much larger network, and T-Mobile’s growing 5G network. It even says customers may get access to more benefits.Īpart from changes in plans, Sprint subscribers will get some serious benefits. T-Mobile has promised regulators that it won’t increase costs for subscribers for three years and that Sprint customers will be able to keep their benefits, like Hulu and Tidal access. That, however, is all based on speculation, and only time will tell how T-Mobile will handle Sprint customers.

No announcements have been made just yet about what that means for Sprint plans, but if we had to guess we would assume that Sprint customers will be able to keep their current plan and pricing, with the option to upgrade to a newer T-Mobile plan if they want.

In fact, they’ll cease to be Sprint subscribers at all, and will likely be rolled over onto T-Mobile. In the long term, Sprint subscribers should expect some major changes. Some Sprint customers with compatible phones may get better coverage thanks to T-Mobile’s network, however, again, that may take some time to truly materialize. In the short term, Sprint subscribers are unlikely to see a huge shift in their prices or coverage, as there is a lot of technical and corporate work that has to be done before both companies will become one. What will this mean for Sprint subscribers? Here’s everything you need to know about the merger and what it means for you. The merger could mean an improvement in overall 5G wireless technology, which promises greater, more pervasive connectivity and faster speeds, but involves costly and complicated development efforts. The combined company has more than 100 million customers, bringing it closer to rivals AT&T (141 million subscribers) and Verizon (150 million).

Will this be good for T-Mobile’s 5G rollout?.

How long until Sprint is completely gone?.

What will this mean for Sprint subscribers?.

Would someone at T-Mobile PLEASE FIGURE THIS OUT!!!!! Before I am forced to go back to the cable. This is getting real old and it is becoming increasingly more difficult to recommend T-Mobile services to anyone. The location of my modem is looking directly at the tower!!! I did make the comment that the modems have seemed hot and someone suggested a fan. Has T-Mobile bitten off more than it can chew? Customer service is the poorest I have ever experienced since CenturyLink but, T-mobile ids tight up there with their internet. I don’t understand the problem considering it worked good for the first 2 months. Yes, they sent they sent me a refurbished modem… Same problem. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't… All I have been getting from tech support is to turn it off, unplug it, wait a few minutes and restart it. For over a week mine has been dropping the internet connection. Why is T-Mobile internet service so unstable. I seem to be asking the same question as everyone else.
