Ten Lies T-Mobile Told Me About My Data Plan

reifman (786887) writes "Last June, my post "Yes, You Can Spend $750 in International Data Roaming in One Minute on AT&T" was slashdotted and this led to T-Mobile CEO John Legere tweeting 'how crappy @ATT is' and welcoming me to the fold. Unfortunately, now it's TMobile that's having trouble tracking data; it seems to be related to the rollout of their new DataStash promotion. Just like AT&T, they're blaming the customer. Here are the ten lies T-Mobile told me about my data usage today."

    Yep, that will sure work fine on an iPhone.

    No problem for the carrier. They'd just charge him for downloading the report.

    Exactly. I've had T-Mobile for years, use them internationally all over the world, and never once have I run into this, except in China when my nexus 4 decided to download a new version of Android, over and over and over.

    This whole article translates to WAAAAHHHH!!!! I'm a whiner and I didn't get my way so I'm going to throw my mashed peas at the wall!

    Grow up and quit whining. Sometimes you run out of your data allotment and all that happens is that TMobile throttles you down to a slower speed so you can't stream porn anymore.

    Much ado about absolutely nothing.

    Ditto, however with such whining capabilities this sounds like a mileniall in which case its his parent's phone plan and he might get his allowance shortened =/

    The element of European culture where that snobbishly looks down at Americans is immature and annoying
