T-Mobile offer 5GB/month free hotspot data for every line

-4 Deal Score

6,925 Views 22 Comments

I just checked my T-Mobile online account. On the "Usage" webpage, I saw 5GB high speed mobile hotspot for every line. It was automatically added by T-Mobile. I did not call or chat for this offer. My plan is Simple Choice. Not sure if it is YMMV.

My tmobile one plus plan still says 3G.

If you have the one plus plan, then you should have 10gb of hotspot

Enable hotspot settings on your phone (may need to hunt around in the settings). Your phone should then give you the network name and password, which you can use to log into the network with other devices.

Is this to turn on HotSpot on my phone so that I can then use it for my WiFi only tablet?

thanks

i don't see the Mobile Hotspot data when I check my account on a PC. But the 5GB Mobile Hotspot is there on the T-Mobile app when I click on check usage.

Not for everyone. I have 7GB on one line and 3GB on two other lines.

I also have the $20 preferred Android web which was change to the $5 bridge to value.
I see nothing saying hotspot either and I've always inquired about adding it to my plan, but the Cs reps are always hesitant to touch the plan fearing they might screw something up.

LOL. The reps are right. This is a GOLD plan u never will get back if something happens..
I would like to test if hotspot is working but I have seen it disable my data if I use. That was few years ago..

I have an unused line. Will test it today..
