Stupid question: what happens when I miss a call?
Hello all,
I am not an avid cell phone user, so my question may seem stupid.
What happens when I travel outside of the service area and someone tries to call me? Am I supposed to get a "missed call" message on my phone when it sees the network again? Well, I don't. So I have no way to know if anybody called unless they bother to leave a voice message.
I don't think that's normal, is it?

tech gurus...Does Razr pick cingular (both GSM 850 /1900 ) signal?
I have 3 questions for TMOBILE phones?
1) Does Razr(or other quad band) phone pick cingular (both GSM 850 /1900 ) signal or does it pick only 1900 (similar to Tmobile).
2) What happens in the market where Tmobile is not avaiable and Cingular has GSM 850? Does the phone stop working?
3) Does Free Roaming include other companies?

what unlocked "unofficial" high end phone is good with T-mobile?
i really want to get the Sony Ericsson K750/W800 or the w550i, and i'm obviously not getting it through T-Mobile cuz they don't offer it...
so i'm just afraid that any of these phones will A) get bad reception because they're not "official" phones or B) internet or such like that won't 'work right' cuz of same reason.
how does any of those phones work for any of u t-mobile customers?

I have been with T-Mobile since 1998 (signed up with Voicestream). My wife and I are both Architects and desperately need a Mobile PDA device. We have been carrying Palms and Mobile phones separately for years. Note, I have been “out” of my contract (month-to-month) for two years. That’s how long I’ve been waiting for T-Mobile to have something decent (non-crackberry).
Last November I called in to inquire about the newly (new at the time) released Treo 650. They said no, but “we should shortly.” Long story short, I have been calling them and checking their web site for 12 months…nothing.
Sprint has made me a handsome offer including two Treo’s at $319 each, free shipping, and free activation. Plus, their data plan is now d...

Where is the EDGE capable aircard?
I have been waiting since word that EDGE was available in early September for an EDGE capable aircard. Only the non-EDGE aircard was on the web site, now for the past week or so there have been no aircards at all.
Does anyone know when the EDGE aircard will be out?
Also I have been reading on HoFo that Tmo is considering raising its internet plan from $29.99 to $49.99? Is this true?
I hope not, as I won't pay that much for it. If it is $29.99 I will buy it and drop Qwest DSL that I am paying $31.99 for, plus drop my home phone line I don't use except for internet that I pay $15 for...I will save $17/mo by having Tmo for cell/internet.
If Tmo does charge $49.99 it is more than I am paying now with Qwest ($46.99), and EDGE is ...

Probably a really stupid question, but.
So, we're currently on a family plan and whatnot, and have never really had much reason to call anywhere other than around this area. But recently, I've been catching up with friends all over the nation. Been on the plan maybe a year or two now, I don't really remember much about it other than the 1000 whenever minutes and whatnot. Is free nationwide long distance included in the whenever minutes? Up to this point, I've never had a reason to wonder this, so yea, just wanted to know. Thanks.

What can I do? -- They don't return security deposit.
When I activated my T-Mo service one year ago with A1wireless.com, I was requested $500 security deposit for two lines of a family plan. I still remembered during the first few days of activation, when I pressed #225#, I can see $500 received on the handset or something like that.
It has been more than one year so I requested deposit from T-Mo. But they claimed that I only had $250 deposit (and I got the $250 check few weeks ago). But I am really sure that I was requested $500. So I went to find my first month's bill, but couldn't find it. I asked them to mail me a copy: surprisingly, it shows $250 for one of the lines only.
So I tried to find the receipt from A1Wireless and fortunately I found it: it clear shows that the deposit was $...

A free phone from T-Mobile and get a "virtual" payment of $9.01 but...
You have to work for it.
Here's how you do it:
Target sells the T-Mobile To Go "package" with the Nokia 6010 for $39.99. This includes $15 of airtime credit. There is a $30 rebate on the Nokia 6010 *but* the rebate is not authorized from Target, Walmart or Sam's Club.
Here's where you have to start to work:
Buy the Nokia 6010 at Target for $39.99 + sales tax.
Go to Staples. Staples has the same T-Mobile T-Mobile to go package but their package they charge $79.99 for the same package that you just got at Target. Staples has a 110% matching policy. Staples credits you $44.00. You walk out of Staples with the same package and pay only $35.99. I'm not sure why but I was evidently not charged state sales tax. So... you have...

Pay to Go Phones
Well I guess this is really a 2 part question.
1st question is
A. Any info on the new Nokia Flip Phone 6101. Good bad or otherwise?
B. If I bought the Pay to Go Model can I use it with my normal monthly service if I switch out the sim card? and is it the EXACT phone or are there differences?
