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

      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.

    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’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.

      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.
