Purchasing t-mbile plan with billing address outside coverage help

Hi,

I tried to buy t-mobile cell phones from amazon, and a1 wireless etc. My problem is that where I live and where my billing address's zip code is there's no t-mobile coverage. Only NPI. But I would use the phones in t-mobile area (commuting). Is there any way to get the deals offered by amazon and the others with these conditions?
Please, help.
Thanks
Andrew

Are independants better to purchase from that T-mobile stores?

I have purchased phones from both T-mobile and independant cellular stores (that sometimes sell phones for multiple providers). I have found that doing an equipment upgrade only (no contract extension) that T-mobile charges you anywhere from $30.00 to $80.00 (as I was told last week) additional cost for any phone you purchase. I called T-mobile today and they looked up my account to find that I had recently done a contract extension 4 months ago and was told that to purchase a certain phone it would cost $30.00 above retail(punishment fee??). An independant told me that I could walk into his store and purchase the SAME phone for flat retail of $199.00 (the SRP) with no contract extension. What is the deal with this and is T-mobile really ju...

Another generic " I need to vent about something" thread

Hey folks...just some thoughts I'd like to lay out on the table...nothing personal to anyone...

Not too many things get me mad, and not too many things can really get under my skin enough to cause me to hold a grudge for more than a few seconds etc...this particular instance has been grinding at my last nerve all day long, and I'm still pissed about it! So, holler at me if I'm wrong or add your 2 cents if you agree...whatever lol....

As many of you know I'm a CCRII/Advance care rep for T-Mobile. I care a great deal about my job, our customers as a whole, and the customers I deal with on a daily basis. If you get me on the phone-you're going to get taken care of, period. Being a CCR may not be the most glamorous job, nor certainly the m...

Return policy question for Reps please

Thanks for taking the time to read this:
here is my situation:

My family has Tmobile and 5 lines, and now I wanted to get a seperate account. I wasnt sure if the service would work in my apt or not so i opted for the trial. I originally wanted to start at the 19.99 plan jsut for testing purposes, but the sales rep mentioned that if i wanted to upgrade in the future it would be easier to start at the 39.99 plan (this is all at an official tmobile store). Now i specifically mentioned that I would cancel if I didnt get service at my apt or at school (the dental school lab is in the basement so Its hard to get service)... he assured me that this would not be a problem. I asked if I woudl incur ANY charges and he said no, nothing would ...

Motorola A630 - Instant Messaging (AIM, ICQ, YIM)

I have a Sidekick II right now. I'm planning on replacing it with a Motorola A630 due to size. Iโ€™ve read professional and user reviews on the Motorola phone, however, I havenโ€™t seen any comments on instant messaging itself. I specifically use the SKII because of its โ€œAlways Onโ€ย connection and handy keyboard. I mainly use the Email, SMS, and Instant Messaging services. It seems to me that the A630 has it all except the IM feature. Instant Messaging on the SKII is โ€œliveโ€ย meaning, itโ€™s not text message based. If I send an IM message to a buddy on his computer, he receives the message right away. And is he responds, I receive the message right away. Based on my previous experiences with other phones, if I attempted to send an Instant Message t...

Hi-Fi ringers Samsung E315

Hope this is not the wrong place to ask this, but... I want to make my own Hi-Fi ringers for my Samsung E315. I did a web search, and I could not find any solid information on how to make them, does anyone happen to know how these files should be formatted, and is there a specific program that is good for this?

Thanks. ๐Ÿ˜
