T-Mobile USA is a national provider of wireless voice, messaging, and data services capable of reaching over 268 million Americans where they live, work, and play

Got a couple hundred T-Mobile customers (including me) and have not had any issues reported.

Wirelessly posted (life goes on! yes it is tough)

No noticeable issue for me. All is working well

Fine here as well. Have been receiving messages all day (most recent one about 10 minutes ago).

Alltel in Virginia was restricted to 1X speeds until about 11 AM eastern. It is all working good since then.

I have had no service all day. TMO Columbus Ohio.

working for me and haven't had any issues what so ever.

Tmobs in Central IL here - I have noticed some lagging in PIN messages and was stuck on 'edge' earlier. That's the only noticeable problem I've had, though.

Latest on issue:

The status shows that the ticket is still open in Engineering. I will try and get you the information for resolution as soon as possible.
Sorry for the delay. Some have been resolved.

I have had problems yesterday and today. 'EDGE' was available, yet no data was being transferred. Browser, email, jivetalk, bbm, none of them were working. Txt and phone calls were about it. I was able to transfer data once I moved to a wi-fi area.

ok, now i'm having problems.

it's text messaging though

Major cities and highways lol

That about sums it up! Fortunatly, it's usually good enough.

Never had a problem.

and most colleges/universities lol

here is a little info about tmobile. their whole "open ticket with engineering" system is BS in the purest form. i had an enormous amount of trouble with tmobile when i got my first blackberry. many tickets were open and nothing was ever fixed. it was a localized tower issue and they took a long time to fix it. from speaking with several CSR's and speaking with the regional senior network engineer, those "tickets" that they open when you call up and report a problem, the engineers don't check back in and confirm they are resolved. they will stay open usually forever unless it is a major major national issue. granted, once it was all fixed, it was a great!
