T-Mobile Coverage & Reviews in Bay Area?

Hi everyone. Thinking about switching to T-Mobile's prepaid $30 100 minute, unlimited text and web plan. Anyone currently using T-Mobile service? If so, how do you like the service in the Bay Area? Spotty cell signal, or slow data speeds anywhere?

T-Mobile has used ATT mobile sites so the coverage is the same as ATT service.

I switched from AT&T to T-Mobile primarily because the service from AT&T had degraded to such a low level that it was almost unusable.

While T-Mobile service isn't perfect, it is far better. Outdoors I get a signal anywhere from San Francisco to the South Bay (since you have a San Bruno location tag). There are places where indoor coverage is weak.

I don't use much data and my phone is too old to get high speed data (no hspa+ or lte).

Look up actual usage as reported by customer's phones: »www.sensorly.com/map

If you find the service useful, consider contributing to the maps by downloading and installing it on your phone.
