T-Mobile switches users to pricier plans and tells them it’s not a price hike::T-Mobile: "We are not raising the price... we are moving you to a newer plan."

Our bill went from 80 to 110. We are looking at the bigger networks....and it looks like it's significantly less than what we are paying.

I’m paying $190 For 9 lines. I’ll be opting out if they try to swap me, at an additional $10 per line it’d be cheaper to do prepaid on Verizon through us mobile or visible. The other postpaid carriers prices are too high compared even to the more expensive plan T-Mobile would swap me to because my T-Mobile plan includes taxes and fees.

If you're happy with coverage, check out Google Fi. Unlimited for $20 a line (for 4+ lines).

Up to 6. My family of 7 had to split into two different accounts to get us all on Fi. Still, 7 people for $160 (80+80) isn't too bad, and way better than the $300+ I was paying on Verizon.

110 for what? And who has anything cheaper?

[–] mesamunefire@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

2 lines. Att has the same for 75 and that's just att.

[–] anon_8675309@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

A follow up. Is that before or after taxes and fees? I’m paying 117 all up to att for two lines with a grandfathered plan and would like to pay less.

Remember that T-mobile gives a bottom line prices, while AT&T and Verizon add a bunch of junk fees. Be sure to check into that before you switch.
