This is just conjecture on my part but I believe T-Mobile reps are requiring the add of a line in order to get the commission or hit their sales metrics even though it's not required for the 20% off.
I see, but I believe that the new added line can be cancelled a day or two later since there is no contract.

I pay $160 with magenta plan for 5 lines, not sure where $220 come from.
Was your Magenta Plan created as a new customer (you came from a different provider) or were you an existing T-Mobile customer on another plan and switch to Magenta Max, if so, did you already have free lines (how many?) ?

My situation is that I have 4-lines on Simple Choice family Plan and 5th free line that I need to switch to Magenta Max plan.

There is Magenta and then Magenta Max. That's where the difference is

I have magenta plan of 2 paid + 1 free. I have 20% off already and am paying $96/mo. Rep says more benefits and better phone offers if i switch to Max. I do need 2 phones to replace the aging phones we're currently using. Rep says I can switch to Max and then switch back. For the knowledgeable people, how much faith should i put into this? i don't want to stick with a huge bill for devices after switching back.

I have had both Magenta and Magenta Max. I don't use either of them enough to make it worth it.

However, I do feel the biggest benefit for Magenta Max is the upgraded offers for trade in of iphones. I know a lot of people say they dont care about new phones, but I think if they're going to offer you a great deal, why not take it. Trading in a 2-3 year old phone seems to be the sweet spot and gives you max value. I always feel like any deal worth more than $400 in credits is a great deal. I think this year's deal is worth almost $700 which in my opinion is unrealistically high and bound to come down next year.

If you upgrade 4 lines on Magenta Max, you get $500 back in credits with the current iphone trade in. If you did it on a Magenta or lower, you'd get $200. So an extra $300 in trade in value is almost worth it even just for a single line. Once you start doing 4 lines, then you're looking at a $1200 difference over 2 years in exchange for an extra $384 over 2 years. ($16 per month x 24 months).
If you value netflix at all, that subsidy is worth something as well.


Tmobile seems like they're doing all they can to drive everyone to Magenta Max. The best deals are for those people and will continue to be like that for most likely the next iphone release in September.

Adding the 20% insider code really makes it a sweet deal. If some day those free lines ever come back, it'll make these insider code plans even more valuable.

Thanks for the info!

I did a chat with T-Mobile (TForce) and I don't think they really understood. They gave me a price of $220/mth ($200/mth with autopay) and explained that the 4-line from family plan would go to Magenta at $170/mth with 3rd line free and the moving the 5th line would become a paid line making the plan $220/mth. I don't think they realize or know that the free line should come over to the Magenta plan still as a free line.

Its so difficult when every customer service person has their own interpretations of the rules.


I'm not sure I understand why they needed you to add another line to your account. Is that to get the code for the 20% off?
Yes, I wanna say. It also gives them some "credit" for adding a line?! Idk
But that's what happened

No you can't. They say the 20% code is attached to that new line. So I would at least wait for a month later of discount applied and then try and see?!

Hmm, that would be strange that the 20% discount, that is applied to your whole account, would be attached to a single line. But who knows what games these reps play. As long as your happy with what you are paying then its all good. Smilie

2 lines of Magenta Max is $140 per month ($85 + $55). After the 20% discount, two lines of Magenta Max would come out to $112 per month.
