Hello! I currently have an iPhone SE 2020 and use T-Mobile connect with 6 GB of data. I normally don’t use all 6.
Occasionally while driving or trying to use the internet, my internet stops completely. I may have full bars and LTE showing it is on, but I can’t use my phone for anything including sending texts. I live in Iowa City, Iowa, which is a pretty populated area and should have 99.9% coverage at least according to the map.
The biggest issue is when I am driving and need to use GPS. I have gotten lost in new areas at night because of this. Meanwhile my work phone (iPhone 12 with Verizon) is able to connect just fine as long as I have it on me. If I don’t have it on me, I am unable to find directions, contact family or friends to tell them where I am, or use the internet to search for help.
Is the problem my old phone or lack of coverage? If it’s coverage, I am switching to Verizon despite T-Mobile claiming I have coverage everywhere including these dead spot areas.
Please let me know what I can do. I am upgrading my phone to an iPhone 11 Pro soon and need to know if I need to switch to another Network. I have been very happy with T-Mobile otherwise, especially the low price for prepaid data.
Thank you!!!
