How to disable T-Mobile Play notifications on Android
T-Mobile Play sends notifications about random stuff (mostly news I don't care about). There is no way to disable these notifications or uninstall T-Mobile Play. Please help! This thread may be related but I do not understand the solution they are suggesting. I followed these steps but future notifications cannot be disabled. I have REVVL 5G.

I was able to disable notifications simply by opening the app and on the top left side there is settings->notifications->off

While we wait for T-Mobile to fix the issue, you can select at least 3 news categories that you are interested in and uncheck the rest. That will reduce the number of notifications. Note: You have to select at least 3 categories - go figure :-)
That's gotta be the worst suggestion. We can't stop it so we might as well deal with it by personalizing your notifications. That's the last thing I want to do.
I tried installing it from the Play Store, but it only uninstalled the updates. What a crock.

100% true you cannot switch the disable button over they are going to get this phone back revel 5G 5, I get messages at 2:00 and 3:00 in the morning :-(

Force Stop will temporarily disable the app. It will more than likely restart automatically at some point and also will do so with every device restart. You can try to remove it with ADB but it will more than likely return with the next update for your device.
Yes. I did force stop but it did restart. Need a fix from T-Mobile for this one: Just stop sending useless notifications from T-Mobile Play.
