Got an email this weekend about a good deal on Galaxy SIII, got it today over the phone with CS.
New TMobile Galaxy SIII for $229.99 (10% discount + waived $35 activation fees) via private channel. New activations, add a line and eligible upgrades. See flyer for promo code and phone # to call. Offer not redeemable online or at the store.
mention website student rate on the phone to redeem the promotion.

I don't mean to thread jack but Wirefly has a really great price as well.
I used Wirefly to get mine for $199.99 tax free with free shipping and the process was VERY seamless. Before finalizing my order through them I even went into the T-Mobile store near me to see if they could match the price or even find anything fishy with the deal that I should be weary of. The salesman looked at his system for a bit and went through the order process on Wirefly with me then said "I'd hate to give business away to another merchant but we can't beat that deal and it looks 100% legit to me. If I were you I would go with that deal also."
So I ordered it through Wirefly right there on the spot. I chose the option to upgrade the phone while keeping my current plan and my phone arrived within 3 days with a final price of $199.99. The salesman even had me return to the store when I received my phone so he could give me a micro sim card for it free of charge.
I was nervous about going this route but I can honestly say that I would do it again in a heartbeat and plan on using them for future upgrades, assuming their prices remain cheaper.

I just called T-Mobile and asked why it was $329 when everybody else had it for $199. She said that it just is. I told her that I'd be buying a Galaxy Nexus straight from Google instead of extending my contract. She then transferred me to the "save" department where they instantly quoted me $186 before shipping and taxes. Ended up paying $211 and some change for express shipping and taxes and had the upgrade or activation fee waived.
I called and asked to be transfered to the "loyalty department" ended up paying 300 but they waived my upgrade and shipping fee AND credited my account 200$. Basically only paid 100 for the device

Sounds like there are all sorts of ways to get the S III for $199 or less with T-Mobile. Just have to be smart about it.
Wow Loyalty Department is awesome. I called them up and spoke to a nice guy about my situation. and Got a hell of a deal for a blue 32Gb GS3. I explained to the gentlemen that my wife wants to move to At&t and being with tmobile for 10 years I didn't really want to go but a friend of hers would hook us up with gs3 phones for $150 each and lower a monthly. The customer service was eager to help out to keep us with tmobile. after a few minutes on hold he came back with offering me a blue 32gb SGS3 for $120 and waving the over night charge plus saving me $50 on my monthly bill. also one of my phone are able to still upgrade next month. I'll save that for the next big thing in a few months. I love tmo. they know how to keep me as a valued customer. at the end of the phone call I asked him how soon will I have my new 32GB GS3. he said I should have it tomorrow when I get to work.
I should change my signature now... so happy

Yea t-mobiles been great to me. I have five lines and the next set of full up grades is dec and feb. Well i called tmobile told them to transfer me to customer loyalty. And after a bit of talking with the women ( sounded hot so hot) she said i will give u the s3 for 360 and also got the 50 dollar mail in rebate which is cool so actually paid 310 for phone and it was at my house in 3 days. She just said i see u are a valued customer with 5 lines and always pay your bill sir we want you ro stay . Anyways im happy customer...also even tho she called it an upgrade she said it will not affect my actual upgrade i think because i extended my contract. But thats cool cuz i have been with tmobile forever anyways. So when december comes around i can get whatever is badass at that time

I think it depends how long you have been with them plus if you pay your bill on time every month and stuff. Little variables cam change the price drastically. Just a thought?

When you guys upgraded via retentions, did they make you change your current data plan? I have the grandfathered 5 GB $30 data plan and I don't want to lose it. When I upgrade online it doesn't make me change it but obviously it's a lot more expensive.

I was in the same situation. Heidi gave me $5 off my data price per month. I asked her several times if my 5gb status would change and she assured me it would not. Ask nicely.
So I just got a promotional letter in the mail from T-mobile which says they are rewarding me for being a loyal T-mobile customer. It offers 4 options to choose from including: for $0.99 a month you get a 4G mobile hot spot with a 2gb limit for 6 months, free month service in Jan. 2013, Free data for 6 months (one line only), and $100 back from any smartphone you purchased (by rebate). You can view the options at tmobile.com/nostrings but apparently in order to take advantage of it you have to be "invited". Did anyone else get this? If so, what reward did you choose?
Yea select customers get invited to these things you can't go wrong with either most customers go with what's most valuable for them.

My mom has had T-mobile since voice stream and yea I just signed a 2 year contract so I'm not worried if the fine print says anything about that and from what I read it doesn't even say it. I ended up choosing the free month as my monthly bill but I hope this thread can help people learn about this deal and call t-mobile to try and get it themselves.
It has more to do with other things as well not just tenure guys being with them for a long time is great n they can usually go above and beyond to retain but offers proactive like that are usually taking into account both payment history and credit too. It pays to pay your bill on time is all I gotta say.

You had to extend your contract for two years to get that free month right?

I sure hope I receive one, as I pay my monthly bill on time and I have been with T-Mo for over 8 yrs. I would get the free month and use the savings for my daughters back to school shopping.

I'm not sure as I signed a new contract last week so either it came because of that or it came regardless. I read the fine print on the card and online and it doesn't say anything about signing a new contract. Try calling loyalty dept and ask them about it.
I asked because I know someone who was deterred from taking advantage of that because it involved her renewing/extending her contract.

T-mobile NO STRINGS upgrade deal.. get $200 off any phone!! Wohooo upgrade to GS3 time right!
I asked twice 'Are you sure nothing in my plan will change' - 'Nothing in your plan will change' - Great
Total cost $349 and within 6 weeks T-mobile will send you a $200 credit card. Great lets do it.. with tax that's $405
Phone arrives. Works! But.. after 10 years with T-mo..
T-mobile say I need a new data plan for that phone to have features like Wifi hotspot. I argue get the plan $10 more ($30 total!) with $10 off my bill for the next 2 years. But suddenly my unlimited plan now says 'Unlimited - Up to 5 GB full-speed data'
T-mobile say it was always like that... hmmm no strings? Did I just get my data capped?

That's what they offered it to me for.. $349 - $200 = $149
The $200 comes 6 weeks later in the form of a T-mobile credit card you can use to pay your bill or pay for anything really.
Since the law states you pay the tax on the full price I paid $405 -$200 = $205 in the end.
Update..
After filling out the form in the box.. waiting who knows how many weeks for my $200 rebate.
I get a visa card in the mail for $50.
The NO STRINGS deal is a long cruel hallway full of never ending hoops tied with so many $^#&^&# strings it should be puppet show.

Yeah, that is typical for them. They screwed me over like that too - but to make it all better, they gave me a credit for the missing amount - but only if I committed to a new two year agreement on all my lines!

Did you only send in 1 rebate? I sent in 2, the $200 no strings one (which I got), and the $50 one that was already on the phone (still waiting).
So, I saw the ad for this weekend in chicagoland; free Samsung phones with new service..
After calling 4 stores to confirm that the Gnote2 was included, I have gotten different answers from the stores I called.
Some say it does NOT include the Gnote2, others said it did.
does anyone know for sure if it includes the gnote 2?
thanks!

No one knows for sure until the promotion starts, but supposedly the Note 2 will be available for a reduced price -- not free.
i asked my friend who works for tmobile as a sales rep and he said note 2 is not included but will be on sale.

its hard to figure out what the note will actually cost; its once price for the "classic" plan, and another price for the "value" plan..
I guess I should wait until Friday and go into a store to see for sure..
not gonna lie. if it ends up being free or like a 100 bucks after upgrade, im gonna burn my tmobile store down. being a first adopter sucks. lol
yeah, I'm usually the one on the bad end of the stick too...trying to avoid that this time!
I kinda hate to leave ATT after only 8 months, but it will be a pain trying to get one from them for even 299, which, I could sell my note one for, at least, on Ebay...
Plus, developement is still pretty slow for the note 2, and its great for the note one...
I saw the commercial last night, they mentioned just about every Samsung phone except the Note 2.

its going to be 199 after mail in rebate. If you factor in 3 months till you get your rebate, it still makes sense to get the rebate, pay the 200 dollar migration fee to value and you still save money over the 24 months.

You only save about $40 doing what you are suggesting. The 3 months on a classic plan cost $60 more than a value plan.

There is a news article on T-mo news' website (i would post the link but since i am a new user, i can't) stating that the note 2 is on sale, but just a different offer from the free after rebate sale that other samsung phone is getting.
And I just asked a sales person at a local t-mobile store in southern california and talked to a customer support on t-mobile's live chat. The store's sales person told me the news is correct and the live chat support didn't deny it either (i didn't ask directly about the sale with the live chat).
However, if you asked anytime earlier than today (i'm assuming anytime before noonish), you might get a different response. This is because the sales person at the store told me that he just received it not too long ago (i went to the store at 3:15pm ish today--nov 14th), so this was new to them as well
I just got off the phone with T-Mobile and the Note 2 is eligible but how this "promotion" works is you pay full pop no matter what phone or contract, and the rest / savings are all mail in rebates... I just bought the Note 2 from Firefly and I think I'm going to save the headache and eat the $100, but that's just my take on it.

you pay 20 dollars a month extra for 20 months. thats 400 dollars extra on the classic plan as any fool would switch to value after 20 months with no migration fee. you pay 40-60 dollars extra while you stay on the classic plan and wait for the rebate depending on if it takes 2 or 3 months. You pay 200 migration fee. So you save 140-160 dollars.

I mean you only save $40 by buying phone on "classic plan then switching to value plan" vs just buying phone on the value plan from the start.

An admittedly stupid question, but let's say the Note 2 is part of the deal and one waits til they get the 300 dollar rebate and then take the ETF and switch to prepaid=Note 2 for 200 dollars? Possible? Consequences?

No consequence as long as you pay the etf.
Don't know how you get $200 for note 2 though. Cheapest without including any monthly plans or activation is $400 already.

I think the note 2 is roughly 300 with the unlimited classic plan, which one would get back in the form of a rebate within a couple months if the Note 2 is included in this Friday/Saturday sale. ETF is 200 dollars(since I am on the 30 dollar 5GB prepaid Tmo plan through Walmart with my Gnex and would go back to that with the Note 2), so that's where I pulled the Note 2 for 200 figure from. Just idle thoughts.
Since Tmobile has discontinued selling devices at subsidized prices anymore, let's say, if one were to buy Note 3 from Wirefly or Staples for $299 with a new line on a classic plan (they are still allowing that), and cancel the service after 14 days and pay the ETF of $200 plus the activation $35 (which can be waived) and first month's service fees $80 (minimum), then the total comes to $579 or $614. Has anyone tried this? Will Tmobile blacklist imei once you cancel the contract?

No reason to blacklist if u paid the money
Hmmmmm you sir might be on to something here

I would do this myself but I'm out of the country on vacation. But someone should just call tmo and just ask that. But if you early term and pay etf they can't blacklist your phone. But there is still the thought if you do early terminate you may have to pay out the phone possibly. Idk.
A few years back when I worked for one of the major carriers, if you did not return the phone when you canceled within the grace period then you would have to pay the full price of the phone and if you didn't then they would send the bill to collections. This phone is awesome but not worth the harassment of debt collectors and getting your credit score screwed.
I know on amazon you had to keep the service for 6 months. If you didn't you had to return the phone or pay the full price.

I read up on all TM stipulations about 2 weeks before the note 3 came out. I'm not sure about buying the phone on amazon but if you buy it though TM, you are basically refinancing the phone. You're paying a little more each month (I think for me it's like 15 it varies depending on how much you put down), plus you get the jump program included in your insurence. Also if you cancel, you will have to pay off the remaining balance on the phone's "loan".
OP this is exactly how I got both my note 2. Tmo had just stopped the classic plan. Walmart still offered it though. I signed up then the very next day switched to a value plan, paid the 200 fee ( on one of them because I sweet talked the Rep and got the other waived) and was set. I got me and the wife note 2s for 600 bucks total (this is when they were still the hot phone)

Thanks for that info!
Too late, both, Wirefly and Staples, have now taken down the classic plans and are showing the full price for Note 3 Oh well, you snooze, you definitely lose! I will wait for some time b4 the price comes down a little...
Walked into AT&T today to buy the note 4. They gave me a free note 8 with the purchase. Anyone else do this?
They gave you one on contract or just a free tablet? I paid for my Note 4 full price and didn't get anything ..lol

I was offered some LG tablet for $.99. I didn't really pay much attention because it's actually $240.99 ($.99 + 24 x $10 a month). I guess either your deal or the one I was offered is decent for people looking for a small tablet or one that's LTE capable. I already have a cellular-equipped tablet. Neither of the tablets we're talking about are "fresh" and have at best mid-range specs. The Note 8 was launched in April of 2013.
I also got the free note 8.. free as in you buy a years worth of service for it also.. gave it to my gf.
My mom and dad also upgraded this weekend.. to new iphones.. they got a single ipad for themselves. They were offered 2.. took one because they didn't want to pay for 2 tablets worth of service..

they gave me a note 9 instead. lol
Nice. Yeah I got the note 8 with a contract. I'm using it on my car audio system. Mounted it on dash. I'm kinda a SoundCloud whore and they also upped me to the 60gb plan for the price I was paying for the 30gb. (Have 8 devices on att)
That 'free' note 8 is not so free anymore if you have to sign up for another 2 year contract at $15 bucks a month.
24 x 15 = $360
It's $10 for 24 months and I like not having to fiddle with tethering.

But the thread title is misleading. You're paying AT&T an incremental $240 in mandatory service charges. And if the tablet gets lost, breaks, or you stop using it the service charges continue. I'm not saying that $240 isn't a good deal for some folks. It's just not "free."
I got my note 4 yesterday but nobody offer me anything like a free tablet. But as what you said is likely you have to pay about $10 month so isit really free?
We just switched to family share and the guy mentioned the tablet promo toe as well but again your paying for it over 2 years essentially. Of they had nicer tablets like Barry mentioned, say note 10 pro or whatever I'd be down. We also took advantage of the double data and are getting 30 GB for less than the 15gb plan with our discount.
