Thanks!
I just joined T-Mobile Dec. 2013. They pulled TU (here in NYC). At the time, my scores were somewhere in the low to mid-600's, in bad shape.
But I did have cell phones in my own name for about 6 or 7 years already.

Thats interesting, i was contemplating switching from Att to tmboile but dreading HP lol. I still need to crunch some numbers to see if its worth it and if service is actually decent where i live. I heard tmobile can be pretty sketchy service wise.

T-Mobile will now let you borrow a phone for a week to try out there service, no strings attached. I don't know the details, you can find out more on their site, but if you're thinking about it, it can't hurt to try!
Also, I just looked back, Verizon pulled EX on me back in early 2012. I can't imagine what my report was like then, but I am sure it was NOT pretty...and they took me.

From what i understand about the program you have to put down 650 or so for the cost of an iphone, That really isn't an problem for me probably more of an hassle. I will have to go down to the mall to check it out , there aren't anymore other tmobile store around anymore other than the mall lol.

Yeah I never realized wireless companies pulled your credit until I went to T-Mobile, because 1. I never cared to learn that they did, and 2. this was the first time I did it in person. When the guy said "Okay, I'm just gonna run your credit" oh boy was I sweatin'!!!!

From T-Moble website:
T-Mobile Test Drive is free with no obligation to buy, but if the iPhone 5s comes back with a cracked screen, damaged screen display, water damage, active Find My iPhone feature, or can't be powered on we have to charge a $100 damage fee. If you don't return the device, we have to charge $699.99 plus applicable taxes.
A hold for $699.99 + taxes will be placed on your credit or debit card. The timing of releasing that hold will vary by credit card company. We won't charge your card unless you fail to return the device.
Got it? Good. Now go give our network a workout.
The iPhone 5s test device must be ordered online. It will be delivered by mail.
You must sign for it and be at least 18 years old to sign.
T-Mobile Test Drive is free for 7 days and starts when the device is signed for.
After 7 days you must return it in good condition to a T-Mobile retail store (not an authorized retailer) so it's important you know where your nearest retail store is.
