T-mobile works okay in Binghamton, Syracuse, and Ithaca, but for some reason has almost no reception in Cortland and surrounding area.

My boyfriend has T-mobile service, and heading from Binghamton to Syracuse, his car broke down. We got stranded, and we were really sweating it because his phone kept going down to zero bars (I didn’t have a cell phone at the time). I really wouldn’t recommend T-mobile because it seems pretty unreliable.

If you have Verizon or AT&T, I wouldn’t worry about switching carriers, but with T-mobile I would consider. You’ll probably be fine with it, but there are better services out there, especially in NY.
