Ditch T-Mobile Without The Fees
  • 4 Comments

We’re not sure if you noticed or not, but recently it seems every carrier is raising SMS prices. Now T-Mobile has joined its rivals by increasing rates for SMS, yet decreasing MMS prices. And when a provider changes it’s service, you know what that means kids…

That’s right! It means you can cut and run with T-Mobile without forking over a $200 cancellation fee. Boy Genius confirmed the SMS-hike by canceling two lines he had. Good stuff. If you’ve been looking to jump ship from T-Mobile for Cingular (iPhone anyone?), now is your chance.

  • Don’t bet on it. It says right in the customer T’s and C’s that the carrier reserves the right to change the rate plan at any time. In fact, T-Mobile has specifically told its customer service reps to not do this. Also, don’t bet on the iPhone. That hunk of crap will play one song and leave you with no battery to make a call – just like that garbage Al Rokr phone they came out with.

  • I think the T-MOBILE sidecick id is great it does evrything a sidekick 3 does just no camera my numer is 3615239087

    Um… The iPhone has TWO batteries… one for the iPod, one for the phone. Use of the iPod features and other battery draining crap won’t kill your phone battery.

    This is being designed by Apple, NOT Motorola. They thought of that.

UNLESS EXPRESSLY PROHIBITED BY LAW, WE CAN CHANGE PRICES, CHARGES AND ANY TERMS IN THE AGREEMENT AT ANY TIME. IF WE MATERIALLY MODIFY THESE T&Cs IN A WAY THAT IS MATERIALLY ADVERSE TO YOU, OR IF A CHANGE INCREASES YOUR SET MONTHLY RECURRING CHARGE(S) (the set amount – which does not include overage, features, optional services, taxes and fees – you agreed to pay each month for at least a one-year Term), WE WILL PROVIDE YOU WITH AT LEAST 30 DAYS NOTICE AND YOU MAY TERMINATE YOUR SERVICE WITHOUT AN EARLY TERMINATION FEE (WHICH IS YOUR ONLY REMEDY) BY NOTIFYING US WITHIN 30 DAYS AFTER YOU RECEIVE THE NOTICE. IF YOU FAIL TO TERMINATE WITHIN THOSE 30 DAYS, YOU ACCEPT THE CHANGES.

    An increase in a price of service is materially adverse to a T-Mobile customer…
