Have a question. T Mobile's coverage towers are fine in populated areas. They don't have their towers positioned very well in rural areas. It is my understanding that once you get out of their coverage that you switch to other cell phone company's towers at no extra charge. Can someone comment on T Mobile's coverage outside of the highly populated areas?

I'm interested in T Mobile due to their unlimited data plan.

How much data do you really use/need?

I switched to a plan with 20gb and don't come anywhere CLOSE to going over.

Can you hang out for 6 months? T-Mobile bought 1 billion dollars worth of Verizon towers they are rolling out later this year to address the rural coverage issue.

They don't charge for roaming. The rural service is non-existent.

Yep. I went to BFE, Louisiana last year and mine switched to AT&T. I wasn't charged but service was slow af.
