t-mobile v. verizon

i have a place in capital heights where i use cox for internet ($50 month), and verizon for my phone service (2 lines, $180 month). i've been with verizon (or their predecessors) since 1991
Cox has been a pain recently. I work from home, and constantly have slow-downs and short outages. Verizon has always been good. My neighbor picked up the t-mobile internet wifi device (he works from home also) and is switching from cox because of speed and reliability.
I also have a place in Pensacola, where verizon service sucks. I got the t-mobile device ($55 month forever) and it smokes. t-mobile just sent an ad that says they can provide two phone lines for about $60 per month.
I'm considering switching from cox to t-mobile at capital heights and switching from verizon to T-mobile for a savings of $120 per month. does this sound reasonable?
is t-mobile good as a whole? verizon has always given good customer service and i know nothing about T-mobile in general.

WTF?
T-Mobile is fine-ish, but absolutely sucks when traveling. ETA: at least in the UK and Australia, it never works properly when you land, even when you pre-buy international plans.
Download "OpenSignal" to check coverage at your home and workplace for T-Mobile. It blows where my place is, but 150 yards away I'm on 5G UC.

I use T-Mobile for phone. It’s reputation for not working indoors or really just about anywhere just isn’t true anymore since 5G and the sprint merge.
I was getting 700+ mb/sec at my house with the T-Mobile home Internet. I had problems with personal vpn, work vpn, Plex, and with some streaming (tv/gaming) services. Had to return cable Internet.
Something to do with double firewalls and non static IP addresses.
