“T-Mobile will never change the price you pay,” the carrier told users in 2017.

Gee, it’s almost like we shouldn’t let our telecoms slowly merge into one greedy entity with no competition.
These corporations have gone wild. We need to cut them down. Drag out the persons responsible to the gallows.
Well maybe I’m experiencing a happy glitch in the matrix, because I’ve had free T-Mobile since like October 2021.
Edit: Responding from said free service.
…how?
Still don’t know to be honest. Might be a legit real glitch in the matrix. 🤷♂️
Best not poke the bear, then haha
If you don’t hear from me within a month, then I’ll just find a Walmart…
Shit. You spoke of it. Sorry for your loss.
First they charged more for auto pay if you used a credit card. Now they want to raise each line by $5. Took our lines and went with an MVNO that runs on T-Mobile and Verizon. Saving a lot of money and still great service/data.
I’m guessing lots of people are going to be doing the same thing. Just couldn’t leave things be…Oh, and I canceled the included Netflix as well.
I’m guessing they added a clickbait fee?
Monopoly capitalists did the most monopoly capitalist thing ever, journalists are surprised.
I’ve had the same T-Mobile family plan since…I actually don’t recall. 2011? $25 per line for 4 phones. It was 2GB of 3G data per month, with a promotional bump to 4GB that they kept extending until it was permanent, then LTE data, then 50GB of LTE before it throttles down. It’s plenty fast, so no real need for 5G speeds, especially since most activity is on our home WiFi.
I love bitching about internet speed but I am glad mobile Internet is not a scam here where I live. Costs me 0.8 cent for every GB approx.
America and Canada look very terrible from my perspective.
Is that $8.192 per TB then?
$0.008 * 1024gb
That seems high? My friend blew through 40ish TB last month but pays $200/mo.
Unfortunately, if you are a mobile data monster it is still expensive since there is no true unlimited plan here.
But most people nowadays only consume Instagram and Tiktok.
Legere was the best thing to happen to that company. They haven’t made a good move since he left
I’ve been on T-Mobile prepaid since at least 2010. I get 10GB of data off contract for $40/mo. If I use above that it gets throttled, but I never do.
My price still hasn’t gone up. I am certainly waiting for it.
I buy a new handset every few years. Most times I get one from the EU that has the bands I need for local service.
That seems like a pretty bad deal actually, you can probably find a better 4g or even 5g plan in the US for that.
Prepaid companies in Canada (who generally have worse pricing than the US because all the cell companies have agreements with each other) have 20-40gb/month for that price (depending on the limited time sales), but not unlimited w/ throttling like you have.
I’m not sure what you mean RE 4g/5g. I just replaced my phone with a 5g handset and get 5g coverage with it. I had 4g with my last handset.
Are you saying the 20-40GB plans have overage charges? I’d rather be throttled if that is the case.
I have unlimited data with 40gb hotspot on tmobile. Not grandfathered into anything either. I believe it’s the max magenta plan
Is that a good deal anymore? I live in Canada where we typically get dry fucked on cellphone plans. I used to pay $50 for 6 GB, but they keep having deals and I keep switching up my plan. I’m currently paying $35 ($25.50 USD)/mo for 70 GB.
Not sure, tbh. I haven’t shopped around, but because I never go over, I’m fine with it. It may not be a good deal at all but I never see the difference.
They need to as inflation exists.
