Contract VS FlexPay
So I was wondering what is the benefit a contract have that flex pay doesnt? what are the pros and cons of flexpay?
Thanks
...
one way they differ is that with flex pay you are not a real customer.
i was told by a phone rep that even though i have a text bundle i cannot receive texts from my bank because of my account type.

That's complete horse plop. Flex pay No-Contract and regular contracted accounts have only two differences:
1) There is no contract
2) There is 1/3 the coverage. Just like prepaid, flex-pay with no contract runs on the native network only, no roaming.

Flex pay is an excellent way to make sure you don't get tied down. If only the other carriers would offer this option. I think at least 1/3 of all customers would pay more for equipment if it meant not being tied down to a contract.

They may want to pay more, but paying $350 for a blackberry 8320 instead of $75 may make people reconcider. Especially since you still have to pay the bill upfront as well.

Since when tdo FlexPay cux only have 1/3 the network? Flexpay can roam nationaly just as much at a postpaid cux.
...
Flexpay Annual can roam just as any t-mobile customer with a regular contract. Flexpay Monthly, however, is glorified prepaid. And just like prepaid, they only get reception on native networks. Meaning that they can't take advantage of any of t-mobile's roaming partners.

i am pretty sure they changed that in 2006. all prepaid, at least in minnesota will and can roam on other networks. prepaid has roaming on att, i wireless, einstein, and cell one. buddy's father came in to buy a phone and only needed prepaid and always roams on att up at their cabin.
