Virgin mobile service is going downhill

[markzombie82]

I regret to tell you that in the last 4 months I've noticed a huge change in the already not so great service that I always got along just fine with.
Now it seems I can't get signal in more places and even less data speeds. Its to the point were the phone is nearly worthless.
This may not be the case fore you guys. I live in olathe KS. And have been forced to buy a new phone. A nexus 4 .
My data has gone down to a whopping 10kbs at times if I get signal at all.
Please post if you guys have noticed a change in your area.

I've definitely seen some strange signal fluctuations in my area of NC, in places where it didn't occur before. Roughly about the same time frame you're talking about.

I was fearing that. Sprints really whoreing out their network while att isn't. Team mobile is on the same path but for now on i'll be on straight talk team mobile when ever I get the stuff in the mail

Its sad but I thought it was my phone at first so I switched to the SGS34GLTE but with the same issues. Personally ive been with them for about 9-10 years and it was great, $25/mo and never an issue. I didnt actually ever switch to android until a few years ago when the Triumph came out, before that i was using the little Rumor Touch. Now I have to do the $35/mo which annoys the hell out of me. Same service but im paying more and to be honest, the Triumph was perfect for what I needed.
