Every quarter it seems that T-Mobile reports customers jumping ship.
This quarter, the bleeding slowed, however, with the carrier losing just 50,000 customers of its 33.6 million large base.
In the corresponding quarter last year, the carrier lost 90,000 customers.
Despite the slow down, parent Deutsche Telekom said: "The contract-customer situation remains unsatisfactory, with the churn rate remaining at 2.4 percent."
Net prepaid subs rose by 231,000, showing that many users are moving to the great prices T-Mobile has for pre-paid.
AT&T has bid $39 billion to purchase T-Mobile, pending anti-trust issues.
