Tired of your wireless provider? Thinking about making the switch to a new one? Changing providers can be stressful. From long wait times to the high cost of paying off your current device, there are lots of reasons you may be putting it off, even if you’re unhappy with your current service.

But the fear of switching shouldn’t keep you from saying, “so long” to your costly bill, poor connection or that disappointing customer service. In fact, T-Mobile makes switching easy, and the Un-carrier offers several wireless plans designed specifically for new or existing customers 55 years old and up. We’ll tell you how it works.

No more hours-long wait times

One of the first steps to switching wireless providers is making your way into a store or researching your options online before visiting a retail location.

If you’re dreading waiting in line for hours, you’re not alone. But with T-Mobile, you can go online, pick your preferred retail location and set up an appointment ahead of time at many stores to help bypass any lines. Here’s how:

• First, find the nearest location. Tap or click here to visit T-Mobile’s Store Locator. Enter your ZIP Code in the search box that says Find a store and hit enter.
• Click on the nearest location to you. A menu with location details will open on the left side of the page and you’ll often see a box that says Appointment.
• Click on that box and a new menu opens that shows you available dates and times. Click on the day you want to visit the location, then click on the time you want to go. Now click Next.
• Enter your name, email address, phone number and select the reason for your visit. Finally, click Schedule appointment and you’re all set.

Take the new network for a test drive

If you’ve been with the same wireless provider for years, you may not have given much thought to your network lately. You’ve likely become accustomed to a “good enough” experience.

The thought of moving to a network you’re unfamiliar with could be the reason you’re still with your current provider, even if you heard a while ago that one network is better or worse than the rest.

The wireless industry has grown like crazy the last five years and what you knew before about a network is not necessarily true today. Wireless providers are consistently working on their networks to expand, improve and implement new technologies to benefit your call and data experiences every day.

But how can you be sure a competitive network will be as good or better than what you have now? It’s worth checking to see if your network perception is reality, and T-Mobile’s solution is to “try before you buy.”
