Why am I paying for a MicroCell?

Posted:
in iPhone edited January 2014
I have been reading about the AT&T Microcell and some similar products by other wireless providers.



I cannot seem to shake the feeling that I should NOT have to pay for the device. It seems to me that if I am paying for your wireless service and you do not provide good service in my home, you should pay for the devices to make the service I already paid for better.



Why should I have to pay because you do not provide good service.



Can someone explain why I should pay to improve your service?



Thanks,

Justin

    I AGREE.



    Speaking of improving service. I was in BRYANT PARK at 42nd street in midtown Manhattan today and could not get make a call or send a text message. for a while I had "No Service" but even when I ostensibly had 4 bars, nothing would go through.







    Maybe they have to make a portable microcell that taps into Verizon's network so we can get some reliability.

    That tower was just down temporarily while they upgraded it to LTE.

    Is that so?



    Why, then, am I getting no service RIGHT NOW in Brooklyn, six hours later? I had to call ATT from a landline, not my iPhone. Never have I had such unreliable service from a cell company.
