Am I the only person concerned about the T-Mobile Price Increase??
So I have a magenta plan and a few weeks ago I got that nice text telling me price will increase.
What really drove me nuts about it was how it was worded I cant remember the exact wording down to letter but it pretty much went like “For the First time in 10 years we have to raise the prices, Your plan will increase x amount”
First off you know how insulting that is @T-Mobile? You tell every one you will never raise the prices, then turn around and do it and brag about how it has been 10 years? Really? You said you would do not do it so it does not matter 10, 20 ,30 40, 50 years latter is nothing to brag about it. ID rather you sent a text saying sorry but we had to increase your plan or please take note plan prices are going up vs your saying well it has been 10 years. When you say you wont do something then you just do not do it..
My issue is a little more depth I qualified for the promotion if you raised the prices I can leave your service worry free and no bills have to be paid but now you representatives are talking about a bunch of technicalities that would prevent me on taking advantage of that offer, or how they claim those offers do not exits.
I invite any one to reply to this post stating how they feel about there plan prices going up when they where told IT WONT HAPPEN. I am hoping enough people will decide to speak out and maybe T-mobile wont continue the behavior, or at least take note for the next time they do this!
@gramps28 who said anything about a class action… I would not try to sue over this as far as me personally, where would that get any one? First like you said, it likely cause the company to want compensate and drive the prices up, if it went class action every one would get very little, and plus as you said I am sure some where in the very fine print they wrote somewhere that they could still raise the prices with out given the benefits.
What I meant is people standing up and simply jumping ship from the big three or just calling there customer service non stop to complain about it. Personally I just stop using them and that is what I am intending to do. Does any one use the perks enough to get any value from it? That is what your paying extra for between the big three and the MNVO's. Not unless your constantly traveling internationally or attending concerts bi-weekly or monthly, what are your paying for? Most of the Video subscriptions only remain free for 6 months or a year, and things like the video subscriptions and free AAA are a one time deal. Once that year is over your paying regular price for good. However after that year has gone your are still paying one of the big three cell phone companies the same prices.
The really funny thing about that is go to AAA, go to Walmart.com and look at the subscription service. Go to your health care providers site and look at deals or discounts, go to your employers benefits site. It is all the same you are offered relativity the same discounts for the same places, and any more this through just about any service, job, or business you sign up with. However for some reason we all pay, these big three careers to supply us with perks that we likely already have access to and let them do things like this make promises and then let them break them!
This has been a hot topic ever since it was first leaked.
AT&T is going to follow suit on increasing grandfathered plans and Verizon did it before Tmobile.
I was on the $80 single line plan. Now I'm on the $25 single line unlimited everything Tello plan and very satisfied.
Yesterday, a class action suit was filed in U.S. District Court, in the District of New Jersey, in response to T-Mobile breaking their promise to never raise the price we pay under their Un-contract and their Price Lock.

I Already have, looking to jump ship to Us mobile, and my current phone has the flexibility to work with US mobile’s Verizion warp 5g towers or the GSM T-mobile towers.. So in the end I can choose the Verzion one if want to be petty and make sure T-Mobile makes nothing off my new service.. I just need to confirm what service is available to the areas I usually travel to…
I also thought about Mint mobile, but after Finding out Ryan solid it to T-mobile, I do not want to have to keep dealing with the same bill issue's that I been dealing with since I have had a T-mobile voice line. Then this may sound a little petty but I am also hesitate because I seen a few people point on some reedit post that Mint's current unbeatable pricing promotions came oddly enough time for this price upgrade. Who knows maybe T-mobile had this in the works for a a while and knew they where going to have people jump ship and wanted to catch them with the Mint service, either way I do not want to support this craziness..
Right now I am working with T-mobile in regards to my issues because of everything that happen to me from the billing issues and this most recent price hike. If they can come up with a a better plan then what they where trying to push on me I may stay or If I need to go I will be happy to go, the ball is in there court now… I told them I give them a little time but at the moment I am still set on US Mobile for my voice service.
As long as you’re not being coerced, the decision is freely yours to make.
If you post multiple times too fast or cut and paste a post from a previous thread you might get reviewed to make sure your not a bot.
Sort of like the post a few up from Bakingsmarty.
They cut and pasted that post on multiple threads.
I filed a complaint with the FCC. Yall should too.
