You need to be on Magenta Max to get it at $30 a month.
If you have a reliable internet connection currently, I wouldn't consider this. The speeds are wide ranging, you can get awesome speeds overnight then crawl during peak load times. Home internet is the lowest priority from what I understand, so Phone lines will get the bandwidth if your tower is crowded. The gateways they send are problematic, some reboot on their own multiple times a day. There was even a firmware update that went out and bricked thousands of units in February.

This service is not ready for primetime yet, and t-mobile is out there selling it in over-crowded markets. I use it myself, but I have no other good options, and to make it useful I had to put $400 into an antenna kit with hours of setup.

I recently signed up for T-Mobile home internet when they were running promotion of 25$ per month with a 100$ visa gift card offer. I have been using it for about 2 months now. The speed is not really comparable to what I had with my Xfinity before. I get average 150MB down and 40MB up 99% of the time. I am within a mile of a 5G tower. My Xfinity bills been creeping up since my promotional offer expired about 5 years ago. My plan is to see this THI may be 6 months and go back to Xfinity as a new customer again starting low starting price LOL.

You can cancel and have another person (your spouse, etc) sign up under their name. Then when the promo under their name expires, cancel and sign up under your name.

Just alternate between different names to get the new customer price.

This is a new promotion code. Terms of contract does not disqualify those who received the previous $100 gift card.

I already have a home internet line with them. Can I add another one just to get the prepaid card and cancel my existing line? It doesn't say existing Internet customers aren't eligible.
You are 100% correct. If the software permits two T Mo home internet devices at the same location, then the promotion code will apply. Worse case, use a different address.

this is trash i just signed up for tmhi and theres some known issue where I CANNOT sign up for a Tmobile ID. I dont have Tmobile for phone just the internet. But your Gateway still is assigned a phone number by Tmobile and can even receive texts via a small display on the unit. But anyway when I try to sign up for a Tmobile Id, you reach a point where it tells you to put in your Tmobile phone #. When I do that and click next it goes to a "F451 uh looks like we got our wires crossed" error every time making it impossible to sign up obviously. Googling it seems like this is a somewhat common error. The most common cause was said to be third party browser scripts, but i tried every suggested fix with nothing working. Anyways basically no matter what I cannot get past this error. I ended up talking with Tmobile tech support via their facebook chat as this is a easy way to get ahold of them. At the time I signed up a few days ago it was only a $50 GC promotion. Anyways they escalated over a couple days and eventually basically told me this is a known issue and cant be fixed, although they did not phrase it like that. That I could just do paper billing and autopay, and they would credit my account $50 (because I really only wanted the Tmobile ID for the GC). so i was like ok.

Then I read this today! Is it possible to do this without T Mobile ID anyone know? also would it still work if i initially signed up for the tmhi maybe 7-10 days ago and am already using it? i believe i'm still with my 14 day free trial period, first billing date is march 15th.

also as i write this post the promotions website in the OP shows "temporarily unavailable" anyway. But I'm pretty sure it's going to require me to login due to the big login button on the upper right, which as above I cant do Frown

I currently use this and it's pretty decent. It's not the best I've used, but it's a backup ISP for me and it does the job well enough.

I've had T-Mobile home internet since December. It's been working fine. I average around 200-250 and would get closer to 600 if I put it next to a window. Sometimes it has slowed down to less than 100 and then I just reboot it and the speeds go back up.

Count your lucky stars, it has been a miserable experience for me. Maybe don't tell all your neighbors, if your tower gets crowded your service will suck.

i was told the promotion starts 3/9 only, i am not eligible fwiw. apparently my service started 2/24 although it doesn't seem like that long to me, either way it definitely didnt start yday.

well i literally checked my outgoing cable internet bill today and they had raised it from 70 to 90 this month (optimum is forever king of "no two bills are ever the same"), so that finalized my decision to go with t-mobile and cancel. while canceling the cable lady wanted to make sure I knew Tmobile was "only a insecure hotspot, that anybody can connect to". Rather than argue I just went with it and continued cancelling lol.

This cable company, formerly suddenlink and now optimum, had a monopoly until that last few yrs and are utter hated scum around here. It is great to see between Tmobile, Verizon, even Starlink, and multiple companies laying fiber in the area, the geographical pockets of monopoly they still have are ever shrinking. But I wont forget how they gouged people when they had them over a barrel (I used to pay them 120)

this is very good i get 70-120 most of the time, but during prime time about 7-11pm it slows to in the 40's and 50's at times. this is still fine and i dont notice any problems though. now if you had a house full of ppl hammering the internet i could see possible issues, but it's just me.

I got this when they had the $25 promo. Used for a week or so before canceling AT&T. Have no regrets. I do not notice a speed difference.

A word of caution about TMHI if you sub to a streaming service that uses your location to determine the channels you get, such as local channels or regional sports channels. This is often done by checking your IP address, but the problem is that the address you get with T-Mobile can be from across the country, which can create problems with this. The only service I've heard of that works properly is YouTube TV.

I've had this since November. FAR better than the crap garbage satellite internet at various family members houses (since that's the only thing available in the area).
