Frequently asked questions

Is T-Mobile coverage good enough to replace a major carrier?
In most metro areas yes, and T-Mobile usually leads on mid-band 5G. Rural coverage can still be thinner than Verizon in some regions, so check a coverage map for your address.
Why are T-Mobile MVNO plans often the cheapest?
Wholesale access to the T-Mobile network is widely available, so many small carriers compete on price on the same infrastructure.
