THANK YOU!! I'm a single mom and wanted to add a line for my oldest son for so long but couldn't justify adding $50 to my bill every month. Just added this free line. Thanks!!!
Nice! What plan are you on?

What do most people do with a free line? Add one of their kids or tell a friend?

What is so great?
Well, T-Mobile gets to say they added new customers.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank ouloat

It reads like some of you are getting this mixed up with free phone promotions. Phone promotions are limited by plan SOCs, but free line promotions are not. ID250791 is targeted to certain accounts, regardless of plan. So just because someone with the same plan isn't targeted does not mean you are not targeted and vise-versa.

Plan SOC is important in a different way because your max number of lines depends on your plan SOC. Earlier in the thread, devin2k9 has FRLTUL2LP, which is ONE with 3 lines max. Since s/he has 3 lines already, they were never targeted for any free line promotions even though other ONE accounts were.

I currently have 5 lines on magenta max: 3 PAID and 2 FREE.
T-life chat just said I can't have 3 paid lines and 3 free lines (6 total. Is t-mobile getting smart on the ratio or am I not eliglble?

"Any account can only have two free lines when your total lines are six. With five lines, you are already receiving two free lines, so adding just one more line does not make you eligible for another free line. If your account reaches seven lines (with four paid lines), then you can have three free lines. Please let me know if you would like to add two lines to get one line free."

I just called T-Mobile rep regarding this promo, my plan is One Plan voice for business. She said the account is not showing the promo, but i can try in next 24 hours as this is a new promo and might show up later. I have 2 free lines out of 11 lines. The initial free line is charge $5 per month after T-Mobile increased all lines by $5 last August 2024. The new free line does not have the $5 charge.

Does the SOC TIULFM9 mean that I'm capped at 9 or 9-12 (12 max)? The first rep that I spoke to said I wasn't eligible but not sure if it's because I'm capped at 9 or some other reason.

I have a legacy T-Mobile Business account and was able to take advantage of this promo. Called in to customer support and was able to add the line in about 10 min. no activation fee required. Sweet deal!

Careful with this kind of offers from T-mobile.

After many many years being a customer of T-mobile, I got a free line. Then after few years, I wanted to move out of T-mobile and
- Attempted to port the numbers.
- The T-mobile held the phone number that I got as free line.
- But claimed that they released the number.
- Even, the Mint mobile, T-mobile's subsidary said the number is not released.
- The number was not showing up in my online account page.
- But, T-mobile kept charging my credit card.
- I disputed the credit card charge, and called the T-mobile, they said you must pay the bill, because the number was not ported.
- When I refused, the T-mobile reported it to my credit history.

After being a loyal customer of T-mobile for 17+ years, as a reward they just damaged my credit history.
