I have even more questions now. What made you move from S23U to P7P?
FirstNet is unfortunately a PITA. We have a line too, want it's supposed to give you better access, but ends up giving you more pain than gain.
Currently, grappling with an issue where the phone is constantly showing as roaming on FirstNet, instead of organic connectivity. With roaming connectivity, we have to enable data roaming and all sorts of settings in apps to allow data on roaming. It opens the phone up to unintended actual roaming charges when we travel internationally.
Coverage wise we don't really have an issue. Our T-Mobile family members have constant dropped calls though.
The free lines better stay free.
What about kickback?
If they move to newer plan my guess is promos will be forfeit
Do it. No such things as company loyalty these days
Yep if they touch my plan for the worse definitely time to leave
Want to save money? Kick your mobile data addiction and get one of those 14$/gb a month plans and only use 1gb of data per month. Its not that hard. You do not have to always have your face glued to your screen.
Not gonna work. You first need to be in someone else's shoes to understand why they need it more.

My Simple Mobile service went from T-Mobile to Verizon towers and since then I've had connectivity issues, less 5G range, and significant speed issues. (I live in a major metropolitan area)

Good question.

T-Mobile plans affected:
The 60 days opt out window only applies to newer plans with Price Lock. If your plan doesn't have price lock it isn't clear how long you've to opt out right now.
Price Lock doesn't really lock in your plan price. If you check the fine print, it just covers your final month's service charges if you disagree with any price changes. They protected themselves from the beginning when they introduced Price Lock.
Customers who signed up on April 28, 2022 and later have Price Lock which guarantees their price will not increase. No fine print about if they raise your price they pay your last months bill.

Everyone that signed up before 4/27/22 (Un-Contract).
- Last month's bill refunded if you choose to leave. 60 days to notify T-mobile if planning to leave.
The choice to opt out and staying seems like an exception outside of the Un-Contract terms. This is the opt out we don't know yet on how long people have to decide.Price Lock for those that signed up after 4/27/22 doesn't really protect you from rate increases either. T-mobile could do the same as Verizon and AT&T by adding a surcharge fee for older plans since fees are excluded from Price Lock. Price Lock also guarantees "access" to an AutoPay discount but the discount rate can be adjusted by T-mobile. AT&T did this over the Summer for people paying by credit card.
