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.”

    I’m on mint, and just waiting for T-Mobile to come after us. Nothing this beautiful can last.

          Thanks for not saying “look it up”. We can’t seem to keep anything nice. We were just about to leave for Mint. Do you like it?

            I switched from T-Mobile to mint not long ago and only two things changed, how much and who I pay, but like he said they’ll come for us soon enough now that they bought mint.

            Mint got sold when Ryan Reynolds needed more money to buy that soccer team

            Mints fine in my experience, but my time is almost up (december) and have been using them since 2018. Im considering moving onto US Mobile which offers better plans (and option of which towers you want to use, they offer tmobile or verison, so pick based on phone specs/area) or a Google fi family plan

            If Verizon is good where you are look at us mobile. “Warp 5g” is Verizon. The gsm carrier they offer is T-Mobile. There’s also visible but they’re owned by Verizon.

            I also have Mint - it’s fine. I pay $66 for 3 months at a time of 15gb data per month. It’s a little annoying you have to buy in 3 month increments using the family plan discount, but still way better than the 2 year contracts of most providers. My service experience has been alright - every once in while it’ll be slow on me but that’s pretty rare. I’d cautiously recommend it if you’re looking to switch. Worst case scenario you’re only out a few dollars if you don’t buy the year long plan.

              I got in on a $45 for three months, unlimited everything. So far so good in LA, but I definitely get the “full bars but where’s my bandwidth?” at least once a day. They’ll put me on an unlimited everything for $120/3mos and I’m not sure I’d be happy with the slowdowns at that price.

              You’re right, I wrote it out, hit send them thought to myself, I should’ve googled that. But, it was in the ether already, and we’re trying to build a bigger community through interactions. So it was a win-win as I see it. Plus it got us talking, too.
