4 lines $100 + tax x 24 months = ~ $3,000
+ 4 iphones for trade in = ~ 800
Total = $3,800

Price of 4 iPhones 15 = $830 x 4 = $3,320
Price of Service for 2 yeas = ~ 480 = 20 a month = $5 per line

Be sure to check but I think essentials plan does not include taxes and fees. It says 4--38% for taxes!!! That means up to about $45/month in Taxes. I couldn't see anything about eligible phones except the blurb for iPhone 11 trade is enough for a free iPhone 15 and the iPhone 7 is only valued at about $415 off, so probably other models are somewhere in between.

More details needed!

I can confirm that essentials price does not include taxes and fees. For 6 lines in NC taxes and fees is about 28$ total.

So taxes/fees are roughly 20% ? That's a lot. I also somehow thought Netflix was Included which isn't. My current plan is roughly $110 for 5-6 libes , T-Mobile , Netflix free.
Wth where are you located and how are you getting such a good deal?

I switched over to Tmobile 1.5 years ago.

We pay $38 per line ($30 + $8 taxes/fees) a month.
I received $1000 in visa gift cards ($200 for each line)
I received Netflix and AAA for a year.

We also traded in two phones but I wish I hadn't. This is where is gets shady AF. We were supposed to get free upgrades from XR to 13 for "free" Somehow we got 14's and are now paying a monthly fee. I am too beat and exhausted to look into it.

Happy with the service but pissed about how the trade in situation went down. If you call before you have the service, it is very gray. As soon as you are under contract, the reps you talk to are extremely clear. Definitely deliberate.

Still better than paying $60/month at verizon.

old one plan, CA, not eligible for any new promotions anymore. I think it was Price is so good that's why not able to switch Mad. Actively looking for new plan where I can be eligible for discounted new phones and also not too pricey from where I am at.

Got to do the math, but you're likely better off keeping the plan and getting discounted phones from some other deal. I've been generally successful scoring big discounts off high end Android devices, don't know how feasible it is to get a big discount on the latest iPhone.

We are on Simple Choice North America 6Gb (with unlimited data, not sure what 6Gb maybe priority?) originally $125 post taxes for 2 lines, just added a third for an extra $20 before taxes, and wondering if this isn't better. That'd save $50 per month it seems but not sure what we'd lose, and I'm sure they wouldn't give us a better deal out of kindness...

Quote from UniqueAlpaca719 :
This is Tmobile's scheme of trying to get their legacy customers to drop the grandfathered plan and switch to one of their latest plans. Sneaky bastards. They are basically just like other carriers even though they like to tout their "uncarrier" ways. When CEO John Leguire left, I knew the uncarrier initiative was over.
That's a fact.

They raised my rates on my grandfathered Magenta plan, so I left. They made up some BS excuses to justify the arbitrary rate increase without any increase in service.

Never going back to that sh!t company.

IDK how this has +85 TU
