Wth.. I just bought it 3 weeks ago for $330 (with included $50 mail in rebate) *sighs*
Upgrade not included, right?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
I think the $99 is for those on value plan and they get that money back via rebate but they still pay 20 a month for the phone for 2 yrs
Edit: never mind looks like the deal is also for classic plan if ur new customer, anyone know if it applies for upgrade as well?

I spoke to two CSRs today. This is only available to those adding a new line of service. Bummer...
I tried on Fri. Its only for new customers or adding line but since I ve been with thtm for 4 years I got it for the 279+50 rebate plus they cancelled my next month bill so I got a free month of service:

That's one thing that frustrates me about T-Mobile. They're ALWAYS doing amazing deals for new customers but never do much of anything for existing customers. I want to upgrade my wife's line and I can get a cheap standard flip phone for free or pay $100 for an old outdated MyTouch Q (which seems like an absolute waste of using an upgrade) or pay ~$300 for a SGS3 for her.

I've been with T-Mobile for 10 years and they have been fantastic. They offered me the 10gb data plan with mobile hotspot for $30 a month today. I'm still thinking about it, I have the new truly unlimited for $30 a month right now. I'm 10 days outside the 14 days you have to get the insurance and the customer service representative told me that today but still gave me the insurance for being a premium customer.

I'm soo thinking about calling them back about that deal. They said there only offering it for a short amount of time for premium customers. I hit 7gb last month. I just like knowing that I have unlimited data. Can we not tether like we could with the S II? I member all I did was delete tethering provision and it worked. But they did say with the truly unlimited plan tethering is not allowed.

me too man... Oh well, I LOVE THIS PHONE :good:
I just added a second line to my account last Wed, and i got the S3. Friday i see the deal online and am pretty pissed that i just paid $348 for the phone and not 2 days later its $99. I call them and get tossed around all weekend and no help on being compensated for the difference. The only thing they said i could do was to send it back wait for the return process to go through, then buy a third line for that price. Complete Bull**** that they cant just credit me the difference(not including the rebate). The return process itself would take a week i was told, so i would be without a phone for 1-2 weeks. I am just shocked at their process for this. I love the S3 that i have, but come on.

The main monitoring occurs on the network not the device level. Essentially they are monitoring the user agent of the outgoing traffic.
One easy way to circumvent their tethering blockage is to use a 3rd party tethering app and change your user agent on your internet browser to android or iPad/iPhone. Both Chrome and Firefox have extensions that easily let you change your user agent.
Confirmed working for me on the unlimited 4G plan using Chrome and WiFi tether.
179.99
It's worth noting for those who don't know that Bestbuy sells an upgrade to t-mobile customers for $179.99

Friday? Doesn't T-mobile run the same sales nationwide? I went in Friday and got the 16GB for $149 and got a $149 mail in rebate. Have to pay $40 tax(they tac the full price of the phone) but that's still just $40 for it.
I am pretty sure its only an online deal only... cause when I found out I couldnt get the 99 deal on mytmobile.com i called them and that's when I got the loyalty deal

So my $75 upgrade (used to be 150, which is bs) just opened up. I need some clarity on how the pricing works. Is this $75 off a new 2-year contract price? Or $75 off a full retail price and I still have to sign a 2-year contract? If the last one is the case, do I even get a 2-year contract price when my current contract expires?
I believe its $75 off retail price and to sign a 2 year contract as well.
75 off retail.

You may be able to get them to make a one time exception and qualify you for a full $150 upgrade if you are the main/primary line. That's what retention is doing for me but I'm waiting for the gs2.

Yes if your contract expires you can get the new contract price.

Your contract and your upgrade eligibility don't necessarily match. You can be out of contract and still not be eligible for an upgrade. However, there will probably be more flexibility if you're out of contract as Sprint would want to find a way to keep you as a customer.
The $75 upgrade isn't much of a deal, in my opinion. If you use it, you're signing a new 2 year contract, and you're pushing your $150+rebate upgrade out another year.
If you're not Premier Gold and you want to upgrade more often than every two years, I think it makes more sense to pay full price for the phone (or find a deal from ebay/craig) every other year.
Sprint is not flexible at all on upgrades right now. Don't waste your time it will only make you mad.

Sprint is very flexible actually .. Just call 877 775 4886 that's the retention direct line and tell them how your upgrade was suppose to be full and now its not since they changed the premier things... I got mine moved up 10 months if the first person you talk to doesn't help out ask to speak to their supervisor or call back QUOTE=DirtyShroomz;16441394]Sprint is not flexible at all on upgrades right now.

I called and tried the to get the full $150 and they basically blew me off..Something about my phone is not THE main line. The contract is in my name and I added my mother and daughter but for some reason apparently my mosm phone is the main line..How the hell does this happen?
A supervisor told me that there isn't anything that can be done and some other stupid crap and if I wanted to upgrade now it would have to be on my mothers line..Well I don't want to start a 2yr contract over on her line cause she will be going to prepaid next year when the contract is up.
So my only choice is to cancel my contract and pay $100 then sell my EVO and move to another carrier..
Screw Sprint..
I was able to get a supervisor to approve an upgrade overide. My $150 was supposed to be 8/01/11 before they changed they downgraded me to silver. I haven't used the upgrade yet because I haven't decided on a phone but I did get it approved. The thing that sucks is that it can only be with Sprint directly. Can't use your supervisor approved upgrade at another store such as Best Buy or Walmart where the prices are better.

Do you know how much money is lost on every subsidized phone? Early upgrades kill profit and sometimes programs are stopped. What good is a provider if it's not making any profit and can't buy new phones or expand its network?

There's no way. She's basically saying that the 1 year price is less than the 2 year price. I think we all know that's not true.
I bought the phone the day after it came out but the total out the door was just short of $400. Then I would have gotten the $50 rebate.
I have a tmobile my touch 4g slide and it is a pretty good phone. I just couldn't justify $350 net so I returned it and paid the $50 restocking fee.
I got really ticked off when a co worker told me he got his from Sprint for $200. Then, a couple of days later, he told me that the cost was $100.
Why does Tmobile charge so much?

Probably the chip to support hspa+ 72 made it cost more than the lte models.
I think it's just T-Mobile's pricing structure. With my now-gone New Every Two discount on Verizon, I paid $130 with a new two-year contract for my white 16GB Galaxy S3.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2
I believe it's a mix of T-Mobile having cheaper plans for voice/text/data and also it could be the fact that the phone uses HSPA+.
I got mine on June 21st so I can't complain. Plus I have nothing but excellent contact with T-Mobile and excellent cell/data service.

If your contract is up, call 611 & when prompted for input say "cancel". This should get you to the loyalty department, 'inform' them you are thinking of switching to AT&T because they offered you free Galaxy S3s if you did. They will definitely give you a better price than you can find anywhere as far as retailers are concerned. Please report your success story with us
My dad simply just called customer loyalty and said we were thinking of switching and what's the best they could do for us. So I ended up getting the 32gig white s3 for 240 and that includes shipping and all fees

Agreed! T-mobile has been losing contract customers in significant numbers to either pre-paid or other carriers. This above strategy used to work for me... until I found a family member that works there... That's what you really need!
Just to add to the info on what you should be able to easily get: my contract expired and I called to "verify" that it was. I also mentioned that I could get the same phone for $150 less with another carrier at the time. She immediately offered the phone for $229 (16gb) with a $150 bill credit to bring it down to $79. PLUS she gave me the $20 5gb data plan and a $10 monthly credit for 24 months! Also got free overnight shipping. Oh and I still get to send in for the $50 rebate!
Hope that helps give you an idea what to shoot for.

If you're off contract tmobile will do close to anything to keep you if you have been loyal (5+ years, no late payments)
For me I always jump on the latest and greatest so i'm constantly under contract, tmo still honors my loyalty and gives me great pricing along with monthly discounts.
Saw this phone on best buy for 150 and I'm eligible for a 2 year agreement just wanted to know if any of you guys have bought through best buy before?
If so Does your plan changed in any way whether it would be data?
Reason why I ask is because T-Mobile is always making it impossible for their customers. I see it as a smart investment worse comes to worse down the line I can always opt out and pay that 200 penalty to get out, I would still have my s3.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda app-developers app
I hate Best Buy but couldn't resist their low prices so last year I bought 3 phones online. It work out good for me. Not only I end up paying for the phone much less than any other place, but also somehow I didn't have to buy a data plan with those purchases. I have a family plan and that did not change also.
Last week I tried to add fifth line to my plan and I had to add minimum $20 data to new phone so I'm not sure how it is now...

Long time - since there were Voicestream - probably 10 years.
I bought this phone from bestbuy in october since I was eligible for an upgrade and bestbuy had it for way cheaper than tmobile ever did. Only part of my plan that was suppose to change was my data plan but it never did actually change. I still have the same plan I had before purchasing the phone. No complaints
Thanks guys. Yeah its way cheaper than what Tmobile has it right now about 340 with the upgrade. You guys did it through the phone or in person. One rep I was speaking with told me that I can't get the phone in store because T-Mobile doesn't allow it? Is this true or just BS. I was going to get the blaze through T-Mobile but it was going to come out around 184 basically around same price I'm getting the s3 for through best buy.. Not a big Fan of the 4'7 screen but oh well.

Also any idea how much these guys will try to sell me their warranty for? Or do I get at least a 1 year warranty.

I actually did mine online and I had no problems. Bestbuy also gives you the option to add a warranty I think but I'm not to sure since I didn't get one
the issue to consider is that BB will sell you the 2 year plan, which continues the "subsidy" (we all know it's baked into the monthly price, RIGHT?) even after you pay of the phone. Consider a tmobile store - and a value plan, where there is more of an up front cost (possibly), but the value plan is a purchase of the phone as a transparent process, and when it's paid for (20 months?) you keep the phone, and the monthly price drops.
If you can do a "small buisiness" plan - go for that! $40 per month to 1000min and unlimited (5GB at 4G speed). $50 for unlimited/unlimited. Add $20 for phone, and stll cheapest way to go...
Merry Christmas

Yeah I notice customer reps actually are not bots too.. I spoke to a few they seem to be well acknowledge and actually have a soul lol.

Plus you get a free 1 year warranty for the stuff that's suppose to come for free, Like a defective unit .buying with T-Mobile you have to pay a monthly fee for that same coverage

Just wondering...
Mine came out to $60 up front... and ($25 a month on the EIP)
only thing is, i average $25+ a month in discounts from work and AAA for tmobile which basically is paying for my phone..
I paid 199 plus the 25 a month, but I came from At&t so with more data and minutes plus phone still coming out a lot cheaper.
I paid like $225 (something like that) and $15 a month, more up front but less a month.

The same exact thread

Paid $150 in front ( plus tax ) = $212 . Payment $18,50 / month plus $50 for signal . Cheapest then Sprint and got better coverage .
Just paid $400 on Craigslist for a brand new unit after verifying with T-Mobile that it had a clean IMEI and wasn't financed.

Has a clean IMEI ... for now
Seriously though, sorry but I think it just hasn't been reported as stolen/in-use yet. Sometimes it takes months.

Yeah I can't really argue that possibility. It was a middle aged lady who had me come into her office at work to get the phone and had a whole legit story for why she was selling it. Usually the janky ones want to meet in a Lowes parking lot at like 11pm and they roll up on a lowrider bicycle so I felt confident enough to go through with it.

I paid no down payment, only the "sales tax", which came out to around $60. My monthly bill, which includes Unlimited Everything, JUMP, and the $25 EIP, is now going to be $108/month. Not too bad. Before I switched to the new no-contract plan, I was paying $109/mo for my old classic plan, which only included 2gb of data & 1000 minutes & unlimited txt.
So the way I see it, I'm paying $108/mo for unlimited everything and the ability to trade in my phone for a newer phone every 6 months. Which is probably the best plan I've ever had.
Paid $582 outright (no tax+ shipping) thru overseaselectronics.com. Wanted to keep my $30 prepaid plan.
I paid no down payment just for sim card and taxes and shipping which came about to like $70 and $25 for the eip

I know I posted in this before, mod maybe didn't allow post. I payed about 175 up front and then monthly payments for 24 months. Total about 500 if I remember correctly.
