Excellent service but I paid for WiFi and it was terrible so does need to be Improved. I bought it to have a better experience and speed but it was worse than 4g which I had to revert to in the end. Overall the service was good though. Thanks

The break in Oakland ended up being a half hour instead of “five minutes.”
