also, what has not been stated here...


if you migrate to this un-contracted plan from a contracted plan, then there will be ETF and it doesnt matter if you are/are not currently in a contract, there will be a one time $35 migration fee for the first two lines.

rediculous.

$360 +tax = $400
Noooo....not THAT much! Should be (this is for Even More Plus understand, and before any taxes, etc.):

$140....2 lines on a family plan, unlimited talk + text + data
$70......2 additional lines ($35/ea) unlimited talk + text
$50......2 data plans ($25/ea) for the additional lines
$260....total for 4 lines, all with unlimited talk + text + data, or
$210....total for 4 lines, all with unlimited talk + text, 2 with unlimited data

Way less than $360/mo.

currently, i have 4 lines on tmo.

family loyalty plan.

90/2 lines
40/ea for 2 lines
1 total internet @ $20 (grandfathered)
2 t-zones @ $5.99 (grandfathered)
1 unlimited text for account @ $10.

$212 +tax...=$236/mo.


new plan

$140/2 lines
$50/ea for 2 lines
2 text messaging @ $20/ea.
2 total unlimited web @ $40/ea.

$360 +tax = $400.

i think you're doing something wrong here, the 140 covers talk text and web , its +35 per additional line, so you're looking at 140 + 70 = 210

which is unlimited talk, texting, and web for all 4 lines

so you save 2 bucks

add AAA for 13% off (show off your id in any store)

or free lancers union for 10% off (just call and say you're part of them no id required)

If your a student at a college you can also get a student discount with student ID or student.edu email addresses.

Right now I pay $129/mo for 1000 minutes (we never use these) and 400 texts on one of the lines, and unlimited web on another one of the lines.

For me to get these same features on all 4 lines I'd have to pay $225/mo

Well, I made a mistake, this was not taking into account the use of smartphones. I had only added some regular touch phones to the cart.

For the same cart with 4 lines and 4 smart phones (HTC touch Pro) it comes out to $169/mo including the unlimited data for all phones.

It seems to break down like this:

109/mo for 2 lines
+5*2 for 2 more lines
+25*2 for internet for the extra 2 lines

total is $169/mo for everything.

Still a $55/mo savings from what my current plan would be.

yeah, I was looking at the 750/mo minutes as we never get close to that anyway.
I'm checking and it seems that with unlimited it is adding $25/mo for internet per line and an additional $35/mo for the line itself.
I guess that is just because it is in fact Unlimited. for the limited one for 750 minutes it only adds $5/mo

Can someone explain the different between the Unlimited Web and the Total internet access? I just made a HUGE mistake today by switching to the new plan and my internet service stopped working. I used to have the t-zone for $5 and now I am forced to have the Web2Go which does not work so well with my N95 and is asking me to upgrade in order to access certain sites. I understand the Web2Go is the upgraded version of the t-zone but I don't expect it to be giving me so much trouble.

Those that upgraded with the Unlimited Text+Unlimited Web package, do you experience any problem connecting online? I just have the Unlimited Text and added the $10 unlimited Web and things are goddam slooooowww. HUGE mistake by switching. I may probably have to switch to the 500+Unlimited Text + Unlimited Web package....

I just missed my old plan.

I did. The T-Mobile rep told me that they are having a few problem with the system recognizing the new unlimited web plan. So the rep had to call in and have another T-mobile guy manually add the smartphone Web on the account to trick the system I just do not get charged for it. I verified this at another T-mobile store that they were having the same problem and that I would not be charged for the addition on the account.
