“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.
Damn dude that’s rough.
I pay €15/m for 35GB EU-wide data and unlimited talk/text. Sim only and not an introductory rate. In fact, I’ve been paying the same for years and the only thing that’s changed is my data limit slowly increasing.
I think unlimited plans are roughly double but I don’t use that much.
1 Gbps fiber at home for €50/m but unfortunately they do jack that up slowly over time so you either need to switch providers or lock in again for a promotional rate.
I don’t miss living in the US and getting fucked in the ass by Comcast and the like…
I have a deal in Ireland, 7.99 month for life, unlimited calls and data EU wide. Currently paying €30 pm for 1gbps fiber. Still remember being amazed at the cost of mobile phones in the USA when I was there on a summer visa as a student back in 2005, sounds like things haven’t changed a bit.
