How much are you paying for T-mobile USA service
 
Mine is $79.99 per month, without taxes and fees ($8.14). It has unlimited everything. Curious if anyone is paying less for unlimited.

Re: How much are you paying for T-mobile USA service
 
$65/month month to month no contract, unlimited everything

edit: i guess its not truly unlimited everything. its the 500 mins plan but i barely use 200 of them so it seems unlimited to me

Re: How much are you paying for T-mobile USA service
 
59.99 unlimited web and texting, and 500 minutes talk/month plus unlimited talk on nights and weekends. With tax and fees, works out to about $65/month

Exactly $52.06 per months (including ALL fees and taxes). 500 text + 1000 talk + Unlimited data. Great deal, if you ask me.

$44.05 with 300min and unlimited web, unlimited weekends only, no text, month to month

Re: How much are you paying for T-mobile USA service
 
That sounds like a good deal. What's it called? Or is it something you just ut together?

72.50 for unlimited data and text and 500 minutes.

Re: How much are you paying for T-mobile USA service
 
Grandfathered in off-contract at $90/mo for 2 lines with unlimited talk, plus my phone also has $25/mo for unlimited data + 400 text. Very low cost, less than any other provider and even cheaper than T-Mobile's new Even More Plus plans.

Yeah it is something I put together:
1000 talk mins -- $39.99
T-zone (grandpa--unlimited) -- $5.99
500 texts -- $2.99

Taxes and other fees got balanced out with the discount I got through the school. :D

To the OP im paying the same on unlimited everything off contract plan too. Been thinking about getting on a plan for the 59.99 unlimited everything plan but not sure cause I love the fact if I want to walk away im free to do so. So its a good chance I might keep it

The EVEN MORE PLUS plan does not require you to sign a contract. The only way you'd be signing a contract is if you want a new phone through t-mobile. Hence, no need to worry about signing contract.

39.99 no contract / 500 min / $10 unlimited web.

Texting via TheOneRing / GoogleVoice

Re: How much are you paying for T-mobile USA service
 
True, the even more plus plan doesn't require a contract. However, its $35 startup fee makes opting out and later opting back in pretty expensive, since you would have to pay that fee both times.

bazz 2010-03-20 20:15

Re: How much are you paying for T-mobile USA service
 
About $85 Unlimited web, 750 minutes, no text. (One ring for that) Two lines. No Contract.
If you have AAA you can get a discount.

Re: How much are you paying for T-mobile USA service
 
i have 600 minutes for 40 $ and I added unlimited mobile web for 10$. It was working fine for about couple of months. but now the internet has some issue.
When I open any web page on the browser, it displays the message:
Subscription upgrade required.
You current plan is not Compatible with this device. Please click here to view plan options.

Next page shows the plan options. 30 $ unlimited web. 40 $ web + messaging. (when I was writing this, I was getting web page not available for the plan options, but y'day it showed like this I believe)

The URL is shown as :
http://m.web2go.com/dsb/upgraderequired/?....

I checked the settings: I am using the access point as
epc.tmobile.com

anyone has any idea about this?

EDIT
I changed the access point to internet2.voicestream.com and I got the google web page.

I think T-Mobile's caught on that this is not a dumb phone.

Re: How much are you paying for T-mobile USA service
 
Im using AT&T US With unlimited text and web with 750 minutes totals up to 45ish a month. But i have no 3g here :( My contract ends in less than 10 days and was thinking on swithing so i could get 3g. My plan is to go to tmobile and say... i want the same plan att offers me with 3g. if they cant do it, buh bye. Or ill try the flex pay plan. How much is that for unlimited text and web with lowest minutes?

Re: How much are you paying for T-mobile USA service
 
I've got the $79 unlimited everything plan without any contract. Comes to $83.21/month.

I only got my n900 on February 5th. Had been on Sprint for at least 15 years using Treos. Never even touched a SIM card before.

I wanted to get on the $59 unlimited talk and text plan and add the $10 web. But I didn't have a dumb T-Mobile device to activate with. Or so I thought. Turns out I recently found one in a closet that belonged to a deceased relative. My n900's SIM card works in it.

I wonder: Should I try switching from the unlimited everything $79 plan to the $59 unlimited talk and text plus $10 dumb-phone web? The $10/month savings seems worth it. But not if there's going to be $35 fees for both activating and deactivating my plans as mentioned here. And not worth it if T-Mobile is going to figure out I'm exploiting a loophole in their system.

I just bought JoikuSpot for the n900. Even though I mostly use wi-fi for my data connection, I anticipate I'll be on vacation for a week some time soon with my laptop surfing on the T-Mobile connection. That's about when I figure they'd recind my plan. ;^)

Re: How much are you paying for T-mobile USA service
 
if you want to be on the contract, then just get one of the phones that is free or only a few bucks, then craigslist it.
