I get half priced phone bill from T-Moile (the firends and family deal) wonder if I should go and upgrade now wonder if they'll scrap the deal

Using T-Mobile network..?? Even its free I will not as its so bad except major Towns..Sure merger will be great relief for poor T-Mobile customers, suffering from bad network all these years, if it decide to share network with Orange..

T-Mobile have become very uncompetitive recently, probably because they were looking to cut costs before they were bought out.

I recently closed my T-Mobile account after 15 years of customer loyalty and moved over to a much better package on Vodafone.

Who is principal outsourcer for these companies..?
I know Orange work with companies like Torry Harris (THBS) & Caritor (Keane)...Not sure how extensive is outsourcer's involvement..? May not be as extensive as Vodafone - EDS I believe..

Never heard abt outsourcer with T-Mobile...?
Any one got information on this..?? How extensive is outsourcer's involvement..?

T-Mobile use T-Systems as their (out)sourcer - same company different division.

T-Systems just look after the desktop and the server infrastructure.

Although T-Systems do a lot of SI work in the other T-Mobile countries, they do very little, if any in the UK.

I don't believe T-Mobile have a single outsourcer for IT projects, it varies from project to project.

A friend of mine worked for T-systems (in the UK) and it looks like they are keen to move it out to elsewhere (Poland) or offshore it completely.

This may be the excuse they are looking for....

I have had problems at clientco. Seems t-mobile occasionally loses a transmittor or repeater or something.

Though it was fun recently when vodafone lost the clientco repeater as its what they use for the official crackberrys here.

Based on feedback I just changed Icon from to as it might be a good news for contractors at least short term...
