“T‑Mobile will never change the price you pay for your T‑Mobile ONE plan.” That was the promise. The Un-contract. The whole reason millions of customers picked the magenta team over Verizon and AT&T in the first place. Now T-Mobile is retiring legacy 3G and 4G-era plans — Magenta, ONE, Simple Choice — and automatically moving customers onto “modern” 5G plans at higher monthly costs. Billing changes hit mid-July for the current wave. The company that swore it would never surprise you with a rate hike just sent the notification.
I’m using Cricket wireless. $45/mo gets me unlimited internet on my phone with a 15gig hotspot.
I’m all physical media, but if I need to download something, I do it on my phone (sorry, seeders) and transfer it over to my PC to watch on my TV.
that sounds like a lot of hassle. why are you downloading on the phone?
The only hassle is the tranfer, and that’s set & forget.
And I don’t spend $50-100/mo (wifi + streaming)to waste time channel surfin.
Lmao I’m amazed cricket still exists. I remember using their shitty USB internet sticks 15 years ago.
There’s a small profit to be made administering a plan on a common carrier while the bigger operators. rake in the big money from idiots permanently leasing a fucking cell phone.
