If your are a resident of Texas, T-Mobile cannot raise your rates until April 1st, 2025: https://www.texasattorn eygeneral....in t-merger
If you get this price hike notification and are a Texan, please file a complaint with the state attorney general's office and an informal FCC complaint citing the settlement between the state of Texas and the merged/new T-Mobile.
There are several other states that also negotiated 5 years of no price increases through various attorney generals and PUCs. However, most states were spineless and only got the 3 year protection agreed to by T-Mobile, Sprint, the FCC, the courts, and the US attorney general on April 1st, 2020... enabling the merger with laughable divestures claiming a 4th new carrier would appear out of thin air.

I'm assuming free lines done get the $5 increase. Might look at Xfinity mobile now, but not sure it will be better because of the free line with T-Mobile.
Xfinity Mobile is kinda a nightmare though too - they do everything they can to get your devices to connect to WiFi hotspots automatically, and if you ever get a better ISP at home (ie fiber) then you get hit with heavy fees if you don't cancel Mobile too.

People love to complain the price is going up but how about getting a job to pay for your expenses
Do you live under a rock? People are struggling while being full time employed. "Inflation" has outpaced earnings significantly.
