So I'm thinking of changing from AT&T to T-Mobile but my wife and I still have a year left on our contracts at AT&T. I'm trying to make sure I understand T-Mobile's buyout program. They will give you a certain amount of money based off of the device you turn in to them which you can then use to pay off your existing ETF? Wouldn't it make more sense/be quicker to just sell the phones we have on my own and use that money to pay off the ETF?

Oh wow I missed that they give you 2 separate credits. That makes a lot more sense!

Anyone else here have problems using T-Mobile in Seattle? I just swapped to it from AT&T and I've been having all sorts of problems. I'm all over the city because of my job and I constantly keep running into no service or edge service. Last night I was expecting messages from people related to work and I never received them. Today I decided to reboot my phone because I couldn't send a message (even though I had 3/4 bars). After rebooting about 10 messages popped up from last night/early this morning. Just wondering if it's a problem with my phone or if service just sucks here.

I live and work in the SLU/Belltown/Downtown area and it's rare when I don't have 5 bars of LTE on my Nexus 5.

Edit: I should also add that I have great service up through Freemont, Greenwood, and Northgate. BIFF!, in what areas are you having problems?

I live in green lake but I was mostly experiencing loss of service in West Seattle. That wasn't even my biggest concern. It was more the fact that I wasn't receiving any missed calls or messages at home with 4 bars of service until I restarted my phone. That's happened twice in the week I've had my phone. If it happens again I guess I'll have to look into getting a new phone. A guy I work with told me that's happened to him before on T-Mobile.
E: it's a galaxy s5 btw.
