My T-Mobile Rate Plan

How many people are PROUD of their cellular rate plan?  I am.  Because I believe with T-Mobile, I’m getting fastest network, with the monst innovative features (UMA), at the most competative price.  That’s SMART.

And it just got even better with their NEW plans.

I had a grandfathered plan for my three lines they called “Unlimited Loyalty” for $89 (for two lines / unlimited calls), + $39 for additional line, + $10 unlimited family texting, + $60 for data ($20 each line for “Preferred” Android X 3) = $198 - 15% corp discount on features ONLY (didn’t work on “Unlimited Loyalty” base rate) = $181.65 ($60.55 per line).  Not bad?

The plan I switched to was just a tiny bit higher, but the corporate discount applies to the entire plan, so it ends up being even less.

$99 for two lines (including texting) + $30 for additional line + $60 for data ($20 each line for “Preferred” Android X 3) = $189 - 15% corp discount on entire plan = $160.65 for THREE lines of unlimited everything ($53.55 per line), which is less than even Cricket, Boost, or MetroPCS… let alone Verizon or AT&T!

At the end of the day, it’s really NOT about the money.  I’d pay more for a better service if one existed, but to have the best service AND pay less than almost anyone else, well, that IS pretty satisfying.  What are YOU paying?
