If your are a resident of Texas, T-Mobile cannot raise your rates until April 1st, 2025: https://www.texasattorn
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.

Simple Choice
So far no texts on any of my lines
I have 8 lines along with 2 free lines (10 total)
No wearables and no tablet lines.
How lol? They provide a service at a lower rate than the other major carriers and you pay for it
Not if you're looking at the big carriers like Verizon and AT&T lol.. If you want to go with one of those lower end carriers with lower priority for signal, data and etc like Metro, Mint, Boost and etc then you may be able to get a better deal.
Take a look at the paltry one-time amount this company was allowed to pay us for their repeated criminal mismanagement of our data. So little I forgot- was it $5 bucks and a pink tote bag? If they were a human they would be sentenced to life in prison for similar actions.
Then compare that amount to the MONTHLY increase they will impose on nearly every one of the customers they shared information on. And take a look at their latest earnings. "Inflation made us do it" hahaha.
Legislators and regulators already have revolving doors with industry, but this is so blatant. Whatever small amount they paid to bribe such ridiculous "settlements" and to be able to just merge with Sprint has paid off handsomely.
The most prolific shoplifters have nothing on these criminals but the news somehow has no available time to report on white collar crime. Which probably makes sense since it would take more than 24 hours a day without commercials to start peeling the first layer of the onion.

Thumbs up not because this a deal, but because affected people need to know about the increase.
Shocked. SHOCKED I tell you.
TMo never bought Sprint. It was actually the other way around, they just kept the TMo brand because of the negative rep Sprint had. My wife worked at TMo for 18 years and all the TMo people were let go and Spri nt personnel took the jobs.
Today, T-Mobile introduced the Un-contract for T-Mobile ONE – and notched another industry first with the first-ever price guarantee on an unlimited 4G LTE plan. With the Un-contract, T-Mobile signs, and customers hold all the power. Now, T-Mobile ONE customers keep their price until THEY decide to change it. T-Mobile will never change the price you pay for your T-Mobile ONE plan. When you sign up for T-Mobile ONE, only YOU have the power to change the price you pay.
Of course a press release (for 4G LTE) is not a contract, but now we know what the Un-contract means and what it means when T-Mobile "signs" it.
I am moving lines to att just to protest. My one plan at work business increases five per line for more than four lines. I am gonna make them lose business.
I can afford to pay five $ more per line , but we all need to make them hurt and churn the lines.
Let their ARPU and quarter line ads show a significant line reductions.
This price lock was a joke and we all got scammed , they fooled us customers. Not cool TmO, not cool at all.
This is why we moved from Att and VZ to T-Mobile
I know Xfinity Mobile has a deal with 1 free line for a year so savings up front are probably good but not sure about the long run.
