mehpricing no different that at&t and Verizon and expect you to pay full price for a phone. Except with an inferior network. Sounds like a winning plan. |

where are you seeing prices? None of the links had any prices. I doubt that T-Mobile will be anywhere near as bad as Verizon. Plus, they have unlimited, Verizon hasn't had that for years. |

Yeah.. because signing a contract and paying more over the life of the contract is winning...lmao
Does ATT/Verizon have a $30 unlimited plan?
G Nexus and T-Mobile Prepaid FTW |

G Nexus and T-Mobile Prepaid FTW A) Were not talking about prepaid. I doubt that $30 included 4G or tethering. B) Contract big deal? I have no intentions on leaving so who cares if I signed a contract. Better than paying $600 for a phone. |

$30 / 5GB plan killed?They used to have $30 for 5Gb 4G speed data + 100 min + unlimited text. I guess that plan will be killed as too cheap now |

I have no intentions on leaving so who cares if I signed a contract. Better than paying $600 for a phone. It's actually "faux-G" but speeds are not much different if not faster than 4G LTE. I too have the $30 unlimited Data (5GiB "faux-g"), Text and 100 minutes on a Samsung Galaxy S III that I use exclusively for tethering my tablets and sometimes my laptop. I also have a Galaxy Note II on contract that has unlimited everything. |

I guess that plan will be killed as too cheap now That plan was never really promoted because it was only for Walmart prepaid initially then a web only deal. While I would be disappointed if it were discontinued I think my next plan will be the unlimited $70 plan. |

Re: mehBetter than $99 for AT&T, VZW and Spent. |

Those plans are for outlets that can't support TMo's new EIP. So those prices reflect a traditional handset subsidy.
Value Plans are cheaper. |

Are you sure that's GiB, rather than GB? |

From the website *First 5GB at up to 4G speeds Not quite my definition of "unlimited" but whatever. Also you won't get anything better than 256 kbps when you're not in a T-Mobile area which is most everywhere. |

So in other words your UNLMITED data actually has a limit. That's not false advertising or anything. |

Verizon pre-paid plans are not $99. I mean sure they still stink but they aren't $99. I'd never go pre-paid anyway. |

Re: $30 / 5GB plan killed?It's still there. It says right on it that it's still offered just not promoted. In other words if you don't already know about it they aren't going to tell you. |

I'm 100% sure people looking for "unlimited" data are not also looking to have their speeds greatly reduced after just 5 GB. Kind of defeats the purpose. |

GB and Gib are so misunderstood that it can be confusing. Data is usually in niB while storage is usually in nB. base 2 vs. base 10 |

Re: $30 / 5GB plan killed?That plan is different in that it has only 1500 text/data combo and 500 MB of high seed data included. The plan referred to above has 5GB of high speed data included as well as 100 mins. talk and unlimited text. |

Well then you guys can't brag about that plan because new customers won't be able to get it. |

It's always been Wal-Mart or T-Mobile.com only. Even before all of this, you sure as hell weren't going to see it in marketing documents for salespeople.
I would be very surprised if anyone gets kicked off of it, and slightly surprised if they stopped allowing people to get on it. |

It could be $20And I still wouldn't care. Their network is terrible. AT&T costs a bit more, but you get a whole lot more. |
