Did T-Mobile use to have a website that you can Purchase Mobile Games, Ringtones, Wallpaper's, and Apps for Basic/Featured Phones on PC?

Hello T-Mobile Community, back in 2008 when T-Mobile introduce web2go customers can create a personalized home page for easy, one-click access to their favorite Web sites. El nuevo servicio permite a nuestros clientes visitar virtualmente todos los sitios de Internet desde el celular y garantiza que las páginas Web sean fáciles de visualizar y de navegar. Con el acceso al mercado de web2go sin cargo adicional para aquellos clientes que cuenten con dispositivos compatibles, nuestros clientes también podrán navegar y comprar tonos de timbre, juegos, papel tapiz y servicios y aplicaciones móviles optimizados para personalizar sus teléfonos. Además, la función Mis descargas permite que cierta aplicaciones, juegos y contenidos que nuestros clientes compran sigan estando disponibles cuando actualicen sus teléfonos.

Did T-Mobile use to have a website that you can Purchase Mobile Games, Ringtones, Wallpaper's, Apps, and content for Basic/Featured Phones on PC?

Is web2go shutdown & discontinued?

Is it possible that current T-Mobile Customer back in the early 2010s still can redownload Apps, Games, Ringtones, Wallpaper’s, and content despite the 3G shutdown?

    I talked to a Representative & They told me “It shows that there are no longer any details showing up about the Web2go website that was launched around 2008 because this has been updated and got replaced by the current website we have.” 

    In Conclusion, Web2go was discontinued some time ago when T-Mobile updated their website with all primary functions like deals, phones, and coverage map to help you with your device and network. The crazy part is they didn't announce the NEW Website Update & the Discontinued service of Web2go.

    From what I recall people with smartphones found a workaround to use the cheaper tzones than a more expensive data plan and it was quietly retired.

    When I first started using this forum in 2011 there was all kinds of chatter about the hacks. I can't remember when they retired it but it soon after.
