This is a bit unfortunate.

    Switch to their mvno such as mint… Way better customer service.

    Something happened at tmo last year, their Customer Service is deranged. They will lie, then lie again… Vote with your feet.

    Same applies to other carriers. They are colluding to squeeze the peasants.

          Even with this new fee a lot of prepaid is still way less per month than you would be paying for post paid. Which is why I am on prepaid to begin with. I Don’t need the unlimited data that all the post paid plans offer because you can literally never use it all. I see no point in paying for unlimited data when I’m only gonna use a few gigs of it.

    Looks like that Sprint merger is going as planned. Sprint enshitifies everything it touches.

    I bailed on these guys and just got Mint. Same network, way cheaper. No idea why anybody is still sticking with T-Mobile.

    They already charge taxes for refilling directly with them and now even target is charging those taxes. The only way to avoid them is to use crypto.

        I’ve been using dash. I was using callingmart.com and sometimes target. Callingmart used to have nonstop 5% discount codes and a reward program that more than made up for $1/“card” to refill. Target sometimes has 5% off gift cards and I think you can stack your red card but now that they are charging taxes on them you still end up paying more than the sticker price.

        What I have been trying to do is throw what I need for tmo and then some into crowdnode so I can earn at least a little bit before I need to pull it out for tmo or other things like Siriusxm.

          For me its Moneri and a little USDC on Aave to get interest on. Though not a lot since USDC can be frozen. Waiting for Serai DEX to come out so i can earn a yeild on my Monero directly. Then i would have little to no need for USDC at all.

    Man and I really like tmobile. They have the best network in my city by far, and their internet service is a phenomenal value.
