Marketing is supposed to increase demand for a product or service but it doesn’t always work that way. What do you use less or even stopped using because of the company’s marketing?

    I have a family plan with T-Mobile for years with friends and a family member on it. T-Mobile had a price lock guarantee on it. They raised the prices anyway. When I called about it they told me they made that promise 11 years ago so it doesn’t count. I told the lady on the phone “I pay you X dollars a month so me and my friends can look at porn and cat videos on skinner boxes.” I’m still looking for somewhere to jump ship to. Mint mobile looks like an option but they are owned by T-Mobile so I dunno if that’s really an option.

      US Mobile is pretty nice. You can switch between any of the three main US carriers with a “teleport” which has been really helpful because I can pick whichever has the best service for the area I’m in when I travel.
