Curious what others are paying on T-mobile... I have 4 lines and I'm paying around $240 each month (with tax) And two lines have 2gb of 4g, and the other two only have 200mb of 4g (all unlimited, but throttled after initial 4g speed limit). I'm under contract until June 2013
I have the value family plan and I'm paying 115 (with tax) every month for 4 lines. 1 line has 5gb and the other 2 gb. The other 2 don't have data just talk and text. We have 1000 minutes we share which we have never gone over

$115 a month... wow, that's cheap. <voice=darth.vader> IMPRESSIVE </voice>
I'm paying $120/ month 4 lines all with 5gb of 4G data, unlimited text, 100 mins each. T-Mobile ftw! One SgS3, one Htc Amaze, and two LG G2x's.

I have Family plan 3 lines, 1800 minutes, unlimited text, 5gb data on all 3 lines, with my faves, nights and weekend, mobile to mobile and insurance on 3 lines and pay $200 monthly.
I think you save more money going the value plan route. I also have unlimited nights and weekends, mobile to mobile, unlimited text on all 4 lines.

Yea, I'm with T-Mobile for life.
mobile to mobile only covers your calls when calling other T-Mobile customers sadly. It used to bee all mobile phones.
Anybody know of any discount plans? ie: Corp, free lance, etc

Your company should know. You can't just use any. T-Mobile approves them and verifies them and makes sure you work where you say.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think it's something like this:

Now I changed it to
$39.99 500 Min
$10.00 Unlimited Text
$20.00 Unlimited Data
for a total of 69.99 + Taxes($10-$13) = around $82 dollars monthly
Now days I dont talk that much on my phone, But I do use alot the internet + texting(about 6K txts a month) im not sure How I do this.
but I belive T-mo is giving me a bad deal here.. been with them for 6 years now and I havent had any good offer... you guys how can I change this or what is your Plan I've seen 54.99 plans out there I wanna make sure I get a good deal before I call again. Thank you very much for the ooportunity
I have unlimited minutes data and text pay 78-79$ a month.
if you go here http://www.t-mobile.com/shop/Packages/ValuePackages.aspx they have an unlimited plan for 59.99
if you dont use that minutes then go with the 49 99$ plan 500 mins, unlimited text, and unlimited data with 2gb of 4g
but with the value plans you do not qualify for a phone upgrade after the two year contract.

Value plans do not offer any "upgrades" the contract holder is paying full price for the phone just split between 20 months. But the plans is cheaper whereas the classic they get a phone discount but the plan is a bit more.

What you should do... If your a college student ask for a student discount. Or if your employer is recognized by t mobile you can get a discount. That's what I have so the discount basically covers my taxes because the plan I have is 79.99$. But before you get either one of these discounts check yourself which one is better. I hope this helps a bit.

Yes, im calling just now and I am being transfer to migration..... and succesfully got my Employee Discount as an employee of the City of New York I got a 15% discount which is ok out of a $83 dollars bill... and also a 10 dollars discount from loyalty Dept. I am in a $61 monthly Bill. with only 500 mins but Unlimited Txt and Data (5GB+)
I just went on the t-mobile website just to take a look to see if there were any changes to offered plans to save me some money. Still have that migration fee to get a cheaper plan, but I was able to upgrade my data plan from 2GB/$20 to 4GB per month (or 4GB + 500MB, not sure) and it only costs $15 per month on sale right now. They also have discounts on higher data pans like 6GB 8GB 10GB...
Go check it out! You might save some money and get more data! I didn't have to change my plan or anything else.
4gb for 20$? Im using Unlimited Nationwide 4G for 20 every mounth downloaded over 60gb

Sucks they don't have the 500 minute plan...like I I don't need unlimited so why should I have to pay the extra $10. Thankfully I am already on that plan. Carriers know that people don't use as much mediums with so many other options to communicate so they are forcing it down our throats. Really thinking of going back to Virgin Mobile and dealing with their stupidly slow speeds...too bad I am on contract for another year or so

It may be because our family has been with T-Mobile for more than ten years.

Edit: just noticed this includes mobile hotspot...and 500MB is included for no charge? Damn this seems like too good a deal.

I don't have much information to say but I believe the $15/mo reduction is only for classic/grandfathered plans. In other words, Bridge to value. Since I don't have enough information from that image, that is the only thing I can think of. Basically, it gives you early access to EIP for phones or how value plans work (bring your own device or financed for 20 months I think?) for upgrades but you do not have to switch to the value plan.
Just to clarify

I guess I'm not doing too bad then.
$30/month for 5GB high speed, unlimited 2G data, unlimited texts, and 100 minutes voice prepaid. It's the best deal out there for almost-exclusively-data users like me. I never even get close to 100 minutes and really don't text. Hangouts and email work well over the 5GB of data plus redditing, ROM downloading, etc. I've never gone over the 5GB limit either.
1 line: $45/month for 1000 minutes (free nights/weekends/mobile to mobile), unlimited text, 4.5 gigabytes high-speed data, wifi hotspot.
This is on a small business value plan I started on a couple years ago.
$70/mo for unlimited everything (including 4G LTE) $10/mo for insurance $29/mo for the Note 3 ($0 down) so $109/mo but once i sell my VZW S4 I'll be paying off the Note 3 in full. So $80/mo at that point.
$205/mo total for five lines. 3000 shared minutes, unlimited text, unlimited data on two lines, 5GB on the rest, $21/mo EIP plan for my Note 3.

Yeah, I switched to it about a year ago, when you could only get it via Walmart or online via self-signup (which was a slightly botched process). I'm just afraid that if too many "data hogs" hop on for cheap data that t-mobile's bean counters will remove or jackup the $30 plan, since there's no contract to stop 'em.

I spoke with sprint yesterday. (had the same plan as you) they switched me to another plan with no contract renewal. Went from $82 to $64 a month. Unlimited talk text and 600 megs of data. I average 75 megs a Month outside my house so this is a good deal for me.
Hmmm.. the $64 number is def nicer, but my data really fluctuates, mostly depending on wifi availablity at work and on the road.. I guess i'm going to have to take a look at my data over time and see.

How is that at all a good deal. U r losing unlimited data. I talked to Sprint and they said I can keep the same 450 unlimited data plan at $69.99 when I upgrade at best buy. I enjoy being able to use 2 gb of data or 20 and not worry about it.
I had the same plan, $69.99 + $10 premium data and $11 TEP. Sprint put me on the my way with unlimited everything for 1 cent more. They remove the 10 dollar premium data and the cost is $80. With $11 TEP it comes to the same price plus a penny. Never have to worry about number of calls or data.

I also was able to keep my current plan at best buy. 1500 min for landlines calls all other calls unlimited work unlimited text and data $149.99 for 2 lines or $75 for one.. best buy has never even asked me if I wanted to changeplans. And I have always upgraded thru them
I didn't have an issue. I ordered online through Sprint.
Overall, it would have cost me the same either way. Data usage is a big deal for me since I use around 100 to 120gb per month on the phone.
I may have 450 anytime minutes, but in total, I use around 15 per month, LOL.
When I was on a family plan and bought my note 3 from amazon, they didn't change the plans, all they change is any possibility for a employee discount. I went to my own plan and had the unlimited my way. Was paying $87.00. I went to the easy pay with the preorder of the note 4, so I switched to the $60.00 unlimited plan. I'd you want to renew the discount, they just have you renew it, depending on the plan, it may just cover the data though.

You can carry-over your current plan. I just pre-ordered directly from Sprint (since BB didn't have any left in charcoal), and I carried over my old Everything 450 plan. The only thing that you need to do is renew for another 2 yrs.

After a lil math
Ok I have been trying to figure out the best deal/plan combo and here is what I found.....
If you can keep your old plan and like please do because the new ones with contract renewal aren't worth it. Here is what I found and by all means correct me if I'm wrong on anything.
Unlimited my way plan is $50 unlimited talk and text $30 unlimited data=$80/month but you have the ability to upgrade after 24 months( it's suppose to be new it's not 18 months anymore).
So you pay $300 for the Note 4(if you don't do the trade in thing) +80/month = $2220 (plus taxes and fees that vary) over 2 years
The plan buying the phone out right or with Easy Pay is $30 unlimited talk and text and $30 unlimited data=$60/month but YOU DO NOT HAVE THE ABILITY TO UPGRADE even after 24 months but by then your phone will be paid for so you can buy another on or do Easy Pay again.
So to buy the phone out right you pay $720 (again if you don't do the trade in thing) +$60/month =$2160 over 2 years
AND to buy the phone with Easy Pay is $0 + $90/month ($60+$30EP payment) for 42 months =$2160 over 2 years
As you can see you come out cheaper with the latter two options plus you aren't renewing your contract. I went with the Easy Pay option myself but you have to do what works for you. Again if you found different info please feel free to let everyone know.
I kept my 1500 min share plan of ole

The thought of paying FULL price for a phone makes me crazy..
I was under the impression that here is some sort of subsidy that is given to them by the manufacturers for using those phones..
Meanwhile, I am happy ENOUGH to keep my current 450min/unlimited text and data plan with Sprint. If I HAVE to change plans, a big FU to Sprint and their lousy service and sub par customer service (In my experience) and I will just go with some other rip off company..
If you were a single user, and wanted to sign up with a two year plan, BB pre-order was the way to go. Traded in old phone, and with the $50 pre-order card, plus $200 trade in credit, my part at pickup was $49. Using the plan at the bottom of the page here http://www.sprint.com/landings/datashare/index_c.html?view=unlimitedtalk&INTNAV=eSLlans$85Unlimited, I was able to lower my payments from $79 a month (450min talk, unlimited txt/data for $69 + $10 premium data) to $60 a month ($30 unlimited talk/txt, $30 unlimited data). Can't beat that anywhere. I know it sucks for anyone that didn't jump on the deal. Right now, the cheapest way is to pay up front the $299, and use the $60 unlimited talk/txt/data deal. Yeah, I can wait to get a new phone every 2 years, so this one is a smaller hit per month, which is important. Biting my nails for the Note 6...lol.
Edit: I think I need to eat some crow. I just noticed the $25/month fee they are charging until I'm upgrade eligible. Think I'll be calling customer retention later this morning, and switching back to my old plan.

Yes all correct. One thing you left out is optional $5 month upgrade fee. If you pay extra $5 month you can upgrade every 12 months. I chose this option so I can always have a new phone every yr. You just have to pay the taxes on the phone each yr. This yr for the Note 4 it was $52 in taxes and I gave the note 3 back.
