When I first read these articles, I was really excited, but I’m beginning to think it isn’t as cool as it sounds.
If I read it correctly, the simple choice plan is $50 plus $30 for an additional line. Then let’s say we both chose iPhone 5s’s, I believe I read $26 per phone for 24 Months. This is bringing my bill to $140, which is what I’m currently paying on VZW. If you decide to leave tMobile or switch phones, you need to pay off the balance of the first device. Isn’t this a early termination fee of sorts? Nope, my excitement has faded. Too bad, because I was initially tempted. :) Traci On Jan 8, 2014, at 3:09 PM, Rick Alfaro <[email protected]> wrote: > Another gotya I think is the fact that they offer to sell you a new phone > with 0 down and 24 monthly payments to pay off the new device.
