T-Mobile Broadband Review
In a nutshell: T-Mobile isn't the fastest or the cheapest of
the 3G mobile broadband networks. However the basic price of £10
per month does include an "always browse and email" guarantee
even if you exceed your data limit, and the USB modem or USB modem stick
is provided free of charge on pay monthly. The network covers around
85% of the UK population and includes access to around 1,000 Wi-Fi hotspots
around the country. But Ofcom's
survey of mobile broadband, published in May 2011 found that T-Mobile's
mobile broadband service was the second slowest in the UK.
Best buy: Pay
Monthly Mobile Broadband (£10 per month); or Pay
as you go Mobile Broadband.
T-Mobile offer mobile broadband using a USB modem stick compatible
with a PC or laptop running Windows 7 and with the Apple Lion operating
system. The USB modem stick is compatible with HSDPA offering speeds
up to 3.6 Mbps. Ofcom's
survey of mobile broadband, published on 26 May 2011 found that
T-Mobile offered slower average download speeds than most other providers.
This survey was based on 4.2 million tests run from September 2010 to
December 2010.

I have had my mobile broadband with T-Mobile for a few months now. Not
had any problems to be honest. This for me is a decent back up internet
when my 'main' broadband isnt working. I think the prices are fair.
But would be better if the FUP were more generous especially concerning
VOIP calls. General speed is fine in my area. I ended up stranded at
a train station and this was late at night and I couldnt get home. I
had my laptop but there were no wireless networks available. I had my
dongle with me and just loaded it up with credit. This meant I could
buy a ticket and get home safely. I think its a neat little device and
does its job. I would reccommend as a back up internet. Its not a long
term substitution to get online. But is perfect for travelling and having
access for a fixed charge as a pose to paying extortions for pay as
you go internet.

The 'always browse and email' policy is throttled back to make it slower
than dial up, so you can go off and make a coffee whilst google loads.
T-Mobile should re-brand themselves as 'The retro broadband provider'
because their service gives you an excellent taste of what the internet
was like surfing with a fax-modem back in 1997. So if you are considering
T-mobile then don't, hit your back button immediately and avoid them
like the plague. There are many other Mobile Broadband providers out
there and they all do it far better than T-Mobile.

Had this for a while and just like everybody says the product sucks,
your allowance will not even last you 2 days *not even an exaggeration
and that's moderate usage*
you'll constantly remind yourself that for the same price you could
have full unlimited broadband without these limitations.
My biggest bugbear however *this issue being the reason why I actually
smashed my dongle into pieces and made the effort to post it to t mobiles
offices expressing they can have it back and that particular Dongle
will no longer inflict suffering on anyone* is that it disconnects constantly,
and I mean constantly! With absolutely no warning, then as soon as you
reconnect (by the way despite it disconnecting without telling you,
you actually have to manually disconnect then redial) but EVERY time
this happens nothing will load properly until you are subjected to...."THAT
F'N FAIR USE SCREEN" *thinking about it still makes me angry* it's t
mobiles fair use policy screen that pops up as a homepage for you EVERY
time you reconnect and won't let you do anything until you look at it,it's
their "Reminder" that you've just been shafted and have basically no
usage left so there's £15 you'll never see again.
AVOID! this isn't even "Broadband" in fact, despite them calling it
"Broadband" they even say you shouldn't use it as such...then don't
f'n call it something it isn't surely that's a matter for the trade
descriptions act?

Don't touch this with a barge pole! It doesn't matter what time I use
it, day or night, the performance is nonexistant. Most of the time the
available download speed is no faster than 4kps, but usually it hovers
around 1.2kps. On one of the rare occasions when the stats pane said
49kps was available, I could still only download at 5kps. Add this to
the fact that the thing disconnects itsself about 5 million times a
day, and even die hard T-Mobile fans will have to admit that this is
a big steaming pile of pooh. I've had it for two months. No way on God's
earth there'll be a third. Robbery, pure and simple.

Don't use this at all. It's over priced and you cant use VOIP communications
beside teamspeak, and when you do it counts as downloaded data and messes
with your usage. Its funny how they have statistics of how much gig
you use in a day/week/month yet the fair use policy only tells you you're
at 80%. Why cant we check how much fair use policiy we have? They put
the fup policy notice at 80% because they want you to spend more money!

T-Mobile's Fair Use Policy is absurd. The data allowance is too small
by a factor of 10 and is not made clear to potential customers. T-Mobile
deliberately conceal the truth. And they prevent access to the iTunes
store and sites like Yahoo Messenger. I would not recommend T-Mobile

Can't get a phone line so the T-Mobile wireless pointer option on contract

I knew that would happen as I watch a lot of video. Can still use internet
otherwise unlike the 3 payg mobile broadband WiFi dongle, once the data
has been used up you get cut off. Only issue I've found is sometimes
iTunes on the iPhone doesn't connect so I have to reset the WiFi.

When I first started using the T-MOBILE DONGLE I was using the 7 days
for £10 setting and using it to set up web pages with pictures. The
fair usage block kicked in fairly quick. I started buying the 30 days
for £15, at which point I'd finished applying work to the site and was
dismayed after around just under two weeks my 'fair usage' had been
exceeded! I bought more credit only to find that I could'nt use it and
had to wait until the full 30 days had passed before 'being allowed'
to buy more 'fair use' days. After what seemed like an eternity, the
month passed and I bought a further 30 days. AFTER TWO SESSIONS OVER
TWO DAYS (approx. 7 hours) MY MONTH'S FAIR USAGE WAS UP!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'd watched around half a dozen music videos, sent about four emails,
and spent the rest of the time surfing shopping sites for a birthday
present! Where did my internet usage go!!!!!!!!!!!? I've had enough
of companies offering much and delivering nothing, money's tight and
I can do without being ripped for the little that I have, so when my
credit,s spent, so will be the T MOBILE DONGLE.

Depends how you set up your laptop or computer and whether or not you
use Windows - I'm not sure about Mac. Windows has the annoying habit
of downloading updates automatically. I would not be surprised if you
haven't changed the settings for this, because it is highly likely that
that's what has happened. Music videos are considerably small in data
size, and e-mails even smaller. I suspect it is something to do with
your update settings. Check your Windows Update settings to see if that
is the case. I had to reinstall windows 7 at one point, and ended up
having to download substantially more than just a gig's worth of updates
for it.

it wasnt so bad could connect to games during day with only the odd
lag spike since before this post however I've found most of the day
I cant even connect to play online games, such as GFWL and steam. Even
playing on face book games now is a nightmare. I find when I buy a months
worth the fair usage policy of 1 gig is used within 12 hours of purchace
leaving me stuck with retrictions for the remainder of the month. I
then have to wait till as late as 1 am to get my gaming fix. Im not
a vampire and so obviously dont want to spend all night sat up on my
PC, but am finding that is the only time its worth using and even then
its not worth using. Keeps disconnecting/ reconnecting, and before some
T mobile employee starts going on about location I have 98% qaulity
connection 99.9% of the time. It boils down to T Mobile being rip off
merchants. I feel like putting my foot through my PC most of the time
which would be silly considering the money in it and the fact its t
mobile's fault not my poor old PC. I once would have endorsed this product

all the time and when you can stay on-line for more that enough time
to check you e-mails you can do it anytime. But that's the point...
it just logs off when it likes... Ive been on the net this morning and
it has logged itself off around 15 times in the last half hour... Also,
no good for downloading anything bigger than, say, 5 or 10 meg... only
just above dial-up speed and will cut off anyway after a short while.
It's not worth five quid a month so you'd be mad to pay full shop price...

ain't that good and it'll cost you even from your T-Mobile phone.

The biggest piece of junk I have ever owned.!! I got the webstick almost
a year ago and have been fighting with T-Mobile ever since. Dropped
connections, no connectivity, no IP address, and the worst customer
service I have ever dealt with. A T-Mobile tech finally came out to
my house and tested my webstick on his computer and got the same crappy
connection that I was getting on my computer. Then he tested his newer
webstick on my computer and it was fabulous. I think T-moblie sold the
websticks knowing the problems and then came out with a new one several
months later because I have had 3 different websticks and none of them
hold a connection. They have tested the towers and the signal and my
house. There is no problem with those areas. The problem is the webstick
as their own tech said. I filed a complaint withe the better business
bureau and T-Mobile's response is that there is no problem and that
it must be working fine because of my extensive use. The only reason
I have been using it so much is because I have to do contantly disconnect
and reconnect in order for it to work. I also have to remove and reinstall
the program. Then when I call for tech support, I have to be connected
but it takes no less than an hour to get tech support on the phone.
DO NOT SIGN UP FOR THIS. Before signing up for any technical product
I will call their customer service and see how long it takes and what
kind of service they have. T-Mobile should be run out of business. Their
product sucks and their sevice is even worse. You can call the Executive
Assistant to the Vice President (877-290-6323 ext 3418025) and leave
a message. Maybe if enough of us call they will listen. I have a year
left on my contract and I think it might be worth it to pay the contract
fee and get a new service and then sue them in small court for breach
of contract and get my money back.

The worst Internet ever, but then Internet in Germany totally blows.
The only place you can get internet is in big cities in hotels or Starbucks.
The other places require you to pay by using their computers. The T-Mobile
Internet is a total joke. It doesn't finish downloading all the graphics
on webpages. I am not even doing video or anything advanced. You can
forget trying to use a VPN, it just doesn't work. The signal is always
dropping so you end up reloading pages a lot.

I have the T-Mobile 3month pre paid usb dongle and the pro's and cons
are; Pros....Easy to set up, Impressive speed if you can get a hspa
(or better signal) anything less than that and its back to 1996 internet
speeds,Allways able to access email/basic web browsing even when the
fair use has been reached.........Cons.....Hspa is not an easy signal
to obtain (dependant on where you live odviously)i suspect the u.k infastructure
is severely behind the rest of Europe in this regard, Fair use policy
is pathetically low and avoid movies/youtube/bbciplayer etc...you will
use the allowed data just on the trailers!......So we are getting there
with hspa but it needs to be improved, Tmobile need to be more generous
with the fair use policy or just offer an all you can eat package....If
you can have an installed, unlimied fixed internet at home then do that,
If you travel a lot you could do worse than t-mobile but forget about
music/films...Hope this helps.

AS you all should realize it is a lottery, I've tried 3, voda and O2
and T-mobile beats them all hands down because they are the only ones
that give me a decent signal where I live so how can I compare unless
I live in a major city. You have to study closely the coverage maps
and figure out who gives you the best coverage. My T-Mobile is faster
and more reliable than any of the others. Biggest pain in the butt in
the content block which can't be unlocked with any of my credit cards
and the 1gb limit but I don't have time to 'game' so not a big issue!

I bought a T-Mobile dongle having just moved addresses, thought it was
a fair price. After getting it home and trying to install it on my PC,
I found that it kept coming up with errors, In the end I had to reinstall
my system just to get the damn thing working, having done this I used
my fair usage within an hour. However At the end of the month I'd clocked
over 70g worth of downloads, mostly through the games client steam,
which is all good but as soon as I tried using it to actually play the
games online that's where it came unstuck as every 20-30 mins it would
disconnect causing my game to stop altogether. So its a double edged
sword. given that a friend of mine is on vodafone and pays a fiver for
5oo mb. I'd say its all about how you want to use it. But the fact of
the matter is wether it be T-Mobile Vodafone or Orange, they will all
spin you a line about how good the service is if it means they get commision
for the sale.And I am sad to say that I took the bait hook line and

for only 1gb limit, and they no longer allow me unlimited download between
midnight and 4pm. its not worth the money anymore. i may still have
my old t-mobile sim which SHOULD be on the old toll of 15 pounds for
3gb, and full download access between midnight and 4pm. connection speed
is unreliable, and its not uncommon for pages to take to long to load
or not load at all. (or WHITE PAGE, as some of us call it) the website
is a pain in the backside, and finding the top up page is a nightmare.
and what a hassle it is getting the attention of customer service. also
in the event you lose log in details they are of no help whats so ever,
which means you are in danger of not being able to use the money you
have now just given them for nothing. and anytime you ask in the shop
about various connection/download problems they seem to think an acceptable

It's not the best but it's not the worst. The bad things I find are
that you have a limited fair use policy, for downloads, watching youtube
ect.. which runs out unbelievably fast, so you can only watch around
3 video's on youtube. Another bad point is that it just stops working
so you have to disconnect then reconnect constantly which is really
annoying and it happens the most with facebook so any one who is always
on facebook or youtube I don't think this dongle is for you!

T-mobile pay-as-you-go dongles are worthless if you plan to watch videos
on line -- because of the "fair use policy" The fair use policy is in
the fine print, and it wasn't mentioned to me when I bought the dongle.
It’s not in any of the packaging materials, and to find it on
the website you have to click on daft little icons — there should
be a big red warning at the top of the page. The advertising in the
shop and on the website says you buy per day, week or month. So I paid
£25 (£10 dongle, £15 for one month). But I'd used the limit in three
days (a couple of hours watching videos, emailing a bunch of documents
to a copy-shop so they could print them out). So I bought another top-up
as I thought that'd solve the problem -- no it doesn't, I have to wait
a month. These dongles should have a big red sticker that says "worthless
if you want to watch videos online".

Saturday 24.09.2011 I don't believe T-Mobile when they say anything's
free as they charged me 3x£2.50 for their web 'n' walk when I'd 6 months
free internet. There are frequent complaints of them taking money from
customer's bank accounts without their permission. I thought theft is
a crime? Apparently not so regarding T-Mobile. They frequently disconnect
my internet calls and have done so again today 24.09.2011 this is my
4th dial-up already, they're a joke. I've read numerous online complaints
about them disconnecting other people's internet calls and recently
read a school kid complaining they'd no internet at all. They were free
to browse the web between 4PM-midnight, but they were in bed earlier
than midnight, they said what time they go to and get home from school
and they've no internet. T-Mobile have got to get their act together
or go out of business, they should stop selling internet phones and
internet phones with data cables if they don't want people going online
for longer than their UNFAIR use policy says. They've either sold or
given people's contact details to other companies, so if you're wondering

The next day I went into the T mobile shop and the idiot said have I
got insurance, I replied no so he said tough we can not fix it or replace
it. I was fortunate because my contract was finnished so I could cancel
it. However before I did I took the sim card from the dongle and put
it in my phone and conected to my laptop via internet sharing and as
a result I still have the same contract but the best part is the connection

deal is such that after 1Gb intensive use (like YouTube) is restricted..
however normal browsing and email carries on. Testing the usage of my
1Gb reasonable usage I left my laptop connected to Twitter for seven
hours yesterday on my old Three MiFi and the counter claimed a little
over 150Mb for the day. Today I ran the experiment with T-Mobile and
the counter claims I have used 1.3Gb. My laptop is setup with no automatic
downloads and the only page I used each day was Twitter. I give 2 stars
because I want to be able to use the "Reasonable" usage - not to be

I bought mine around two weeks ago, the £40 option including 3 months
unlimited broadband. I was on contract with Orange before (£25 10GB
p.mth) and i decided to try a Pay as you go one this time. The main
reason i choose T-mobile was because it was the only one that doesn't
charge when you go over the allowance, that and i had a good experience
using the internet on my mobile phone with T-mobile in 2007-2009. It
wasn't clear what my data allowance was, i'd seen 1GB and 3GB mentioned,
also the word unlimited used (although i know that means nothing when
it comes to these networks). So i decided not to watch any videos or
stream for the first week, knowing 1GB wouldn't last for very long at
all. After 7 days my data allowance had ran out and i continued browsing,
i was happy to find out that i could browse the internet normally, apart
from Facebook being unusually slow as it was from the start. In one
of the months of my Orange contract i went over my limit, so the speed
was cut for the next month, which made it incredibly slow, to point
of it being pretty much unusable. So in comparison to that, T-mobile
is better for when you go over your allowance. Although i was wish it
wouldn't keep on reminding me that i've gone over, with a fair use policy
message that comes up every now and again. The main problem i've had
with it and the one that bothers me the most is, it says it's "not responding"
far too often and it seems to becoming more frequent. Each time this
happens i have to restart or shut down my laptop, because the device
has caused some sort of glitch, the laptop doesn't shut down properly
when this happens, so i have to do it manually, then turn it back on
again to reconnect to the internet, causing a lot of wasted time and
hassel. I've also had other similar problems losing connection. Whenever
i write anything online now or make changes on websites, i'm always
it will happen and i'll lose everything i've just done. So now i have
to save things i've written in Microsoft works before i press the submit
button. If this keeps happening as often i won't be able to use T-mobile
for long. There's clearly a problem with their dongle sticks or software.
I found this website looking for a solution to the problem, as many
others probably have done. Because of this and T-mobile deciding to
reduce their data-allowance, as well as now charging people £2 per day
instead of what was previously £1 (if people want that option) T-Mobile
only gets 2 stars from me. (When i clicked Submit then, i lost connection
again. I suppose i was being generous giving 2 stars) (OK second of
time of trying and this time when i clicked it, the fair use policy
message came up. I wouldn't recommend T-mobile broadband to anyone.)
