Even if I wasn't, I'd be willing to pay another $10

I already said a few days ago that they are increasing the cost for profitability purposes. I guess any price increase could be claimed as needed for network improvement. I mean carriers are always making improvements to their network. Put it this way though, I am betting that they could still improve their network without the increase in price. They would just be less profitable.

Well of course at the end of the day it's about profits... For any company.. Who denied this or said it wasn't? Also Verizon could easily change less and keep the same coverage but you justify it still for them right? T-Mobile is starting to bump it as they improve... I expected it as I am sure most did.

It amazes me.. Do people actually think that running a CELLULAR NETWORK is free? Do you really think that you are just ENTITLED The fastest Data Speeds, for the cheapest price, when you want it, NOW NOW NOW!? That the techs who repair a tower that has an outage are working for free and do not need to get paid? and yes, i am sure the CEO makes more then he should, and the shareholders are money hungry... In the end though... EVERYTHING COSTS MONEY... you do not just spend the money to build something and then never have to spend money on it again.....
I am a firm BELIEVER that 4 CARRIERS is NOT better then 3... The only reason ATT and VERIZON are trying to push the "4 Carriers means smaller bills and better innovation" is so that SPRINT and TMOBILE can't jump into the game and start forcing the big 2 to actually have to consider LOWERING Prices on the real! and NO Prices will NOT go up if they merge... The New SprinT-Mobile... Will be Bigger, meaning better negotiation power with the cell makers...

I don't think many people think that costs aren't justified.. It's just.. Who likes their bill going up? I've yet to meet anyone who does.. So most consumers are thinking about their wallets.. Not the corporations wallet..
But if they want the service.. They'll have to cough it up. .

Well it's better than what sprint does: start a 10 dollar "4G" fee, start eliminating employee discounts on all lines, increase surchages
and with little to no network improvement in all areas with some areas having network downgraded.
at least you know that 10 dollars goes farther with tmobile than with any of the other carriers. But really can you complain? I hear about some users going 50 gb, 100 gb a month. I'm not saying they can't since it's unlimited, but clearly some people take that to vain. If someone offers you a free cookie, do you raid the cookie jar? Sometimes I wonder what people with their phones for 20,30 gb etc a month
It would be interesting to see if they can maintain similar pricing and increase its network to match Verizon or at least att.
With two recent moves to increase pricing, it looks like they were trying to push low prices that weren't necessarily sustainable. Perhaps I am wrong and they may change, but to me their current changes don't look good.

Eh a 10 dollar one is fine. It is like you with Verizon.. Your plan is perfect but I know you don't like the new one so their changes ain't the best either. This is just a 10 dollar increase.. It was expected as more flock to them. Also it could be to help their numbers for the possible upcoming merger for Sprint so they look better on the books. Who knows?
