Deal Details
Looks like T-Mobile is offering a hidden $10 hotspot plan ($15 before Auto pay). This is for consumer and business accounts. It's for BYOD hotspot devices only and connected laptops (so no phones or tablets). Looks like you will have to contact T-Mobile to get this. There will be a $35 activation fee as well. See the attached flyer and link for more info.

You can't get in the Costco store without a membership
Not true. No membership required if picking up pet or human meds from pharmacy. Another little know fact is that one can buy most items without a membership card for online purchases. Some items do require a membership if sold at other retailers.

They are grandfathering new lines when you add? Did you add on web? Are you using consumer web page (SSN based account) or business?

I have 2 lines on tablet plan, will need 2 more eventually.
Just called, tried to add as a new customer, this required a hard pull and $35 activation fee. so I went with the extra add on, charged as $10 more (not $15), and I don't know much more as I just ordered

Literally the only reason I have home Internet service is for my wife to use the Chromecast to stream music on Youtube. Or to use a Bluetooth speaker to play music from her iPad.

Can I get this and connect a Chromecast to it with a hotspot? I could cancel my home Internet if so.

We use about 15-16GB a month according to my router logs.

No a free, you need pay tax on the inflated price....24-month credit means 24-month contract lock-in

That's amazing if you use less than 20gb per month. The hotspot works as one would expect, connect like a normal router and work away. I personally wouldn't, but we use YouTube for more than just music.

So with a 5G gateway and a router with TTL mod this turns into a true unlimited 5G w/o video throttling?

Quote from LiveLongAndProsper :
Thanks for posting the deal. I signed up for the hotspot line today at the T-Mobile kiosk inside Costco. The $35 one-time activation fee was waived. The recurring monthly charge is $10 (which includes all taxes and fees). And I will receive a $25 Costco gift card in the mail in about 60 days. The only downside is that the monthly cost may go up in the future, i.e., it is not locked at $10 forever. However, since this is a month to month plan with no contract, I can drop anytime.

My total cost for the first year will be 12 months x $10 ($120 billed by T-Mobile) less the $25 Costco gift card for a total out of pocket cost of $95.
Are you a current tmobile customer? Did you have to ask to have the activation fee waived?

Confirmed promo still active. Customer support rep creatively waived the activation fee by giving me $35 credit on my next billing - still had to pay activation fee and was given free upgraded 2-day delivery of SIM card.

Called Tmobile customer support. Mentioned promo of 30GB for $10 on a BYOD set up. Confirmed I have a hotspot (I may or may not, ultimate goal is to get sim card). Customer rep could not find code, I then provide M(mary) I(igloo) - 3 - 0 - T (Tom) I (igloo). It worked!


Thanks OP!

Successfully added the $10 tax-included plan onto my current mm 55+ plan with the costco/t-mobile cs phone number (1-833-428-1765).

The whole process is seamless and the rep is knowledgeable about the plan. Just mention $10/mon 30gb hotspot plan and rep knows what's going on. took approx 20 mins from start to finish. $35 activication fee is waived. No mention of the costco cash card. Sim will shipped within 2 business days.

and Yes the rep did ask me for the costco membership #

Thanks OP and the one who posted the costco CS number

I think that some people are confusing this plan with some regular phone plans where you get unlimited high-speed data but capped at 10/20/30 Gigs to use through your phone's hotspot function. In those cases, they can modify TTL settings to trick the system into giving them more hotspot data, since it isn't recognized as such. However, this is simply a hotspot plan with a limit of 30 Gigs of high-speed data. It would appear to be capped at 30 GB of high-speed data regardless, so getting more through such methods would seem unlikely to work and the speed would drop to 600 kbps (edited) after using the 30 Gigs at high speed, according to the OP screenshot of terms.
