Coming back
So i think i am coming back to tmobile from cingular.
However, i have a question.
First, how is the phone price affected between a 1 year and 2 year? And does Tmobile still do 1 year?
Second, if i sign up on the 1500 anytime minute promotional plan for 39.99, and in 6 months decide i need more minutes or night and weekend, can i transfer to a non promotional plan without extending my contract? Do they allow changing of plans without contract extentions?

Hi Homeslice:
T-Mobile will do 1 year but only over the phone.
1 year contract = higher phone price.
And if you want to switch to a non-promotional plan during your contract it WILL NOT extend your contract. Only switching to a promotional plan will extend your contract. I hope this helps.

ok so if i sign up on the new 1500 minute plan for 39.99, and lets say in 6 months i say, well i need nights and weekends and i go to the 600 minute plan or 1000 minute plan for 49.99 it will not require an extension?
But if i switch to another promotional plan it will require a 1 year?
How much difference are there in the phone prices, i used to get my phones from amazon.com but it looks like they only do 2 years now.
i have cingular and i get 450 anytime for 39.99 minus my 10.00 discount, but their next plan up is 20.00 more so its cheaper to do tmobile, since i use about 950 minutes total.

i also see letstalk.com lets u do 1 year contracts and u get a free bluetooth headset for the nokia 6103. I have the 6102 on cingular and i love it! best phone ive ever had.
...
Be careful with those online websites and rebates they offer, the deal might not be as sweet as you think. Plus the problems you could run into doing it online might not be worth the price you get it for.
...
I ordered my phone with Customer service and I received the same price for the phone as a 2yr contract in the stores with only a one year contract. Try giving them a call. T-Mobile is still running their 1500 for $39.99, I thought that ended in February??????? đ
...
they just put it back up Monday No nights and weekends though.
Has anyone seen tmobile run a better plan that i should wait for?

T-Mobile does do one-year contracts in their corporate stores or over the phone. I would suggest going to one of their corporate stores with all your questions. As for switching your plan, the 49.99 a month that gives 1000 minutes and N&W would require a one year contract extention. I would suggest just activating with a two-year contract so say in six months if you want to switch your rate plan, it wont matter if you have to extend your contract because you have already committed for the two years. Makes more sense cause then you get the phone for cheaper and if you know you are going to switch your rate plan or are pretty sure you would switch it down the line.
...
i doubt id have to switch, and letstalk.com lets u do 1 year contracts, the 6103 is free with a 1 year and u get a free bluetooth set. Why would i have to extend my contract to get the 49.99 plan, thats a promotional plan?
...
The 29.99 plan doesnt not require a contract extention but pretty much every other one does. Like I said go to nearest t-mobile corporate store. They will have straight answers for you. You dont have to buy the phone their just ask them . You could even call if you are too lazy.
...
lol....i just figured id get some answers here. What about the 39.99 600 mins, is that a promotional plan? I really dont like 2 year contracts. I have never signed one. Cingular i think went to all 2 year contracts.
...
I dont think the 39.99 600 minute plan is a promotional plan, but I still think the you have to extend your contract when you switch to it. Im not really sure. about 80 20. I know two-year contracts are scary but t-moblie is a good company and they are only going to get better.
...
yeah....i just always feel funny about doing it. I paid full price for a cingular phone on ebay to avoid a new contract. Now they went to only 2 year i was told so there goes me ever getting a new phone with them. Now they want me to pay 20.00 more a month for the next plan of minutes. Thats rediculous.
The 1500 minute plan at tmobile seems like the best out there right now. No night and weekends but it has 1500 minutes. I use about 950 right now including nights and weekends, daytime, and mobile to mobile on cingular.

You can switch plans at Cingular any time you want. You just lose your roll-over minutes. Long ago, you could get the 2000 minute plan for a month, use 500 minutes and switch back to a 500 minute plan the next month, earning 1500 roll-over. I think Cingular caught on!!
...
the 600 min plan w/ nights and weekends requires a one year contract... basically any plan with unlimited nights and weekends or any promotional plan requires a contract extension.
...
i guess another question id have is do you think there might be a better promotion coming out in the next few months I should wait for? This promotion expires July 21 they told me.
...
yea alot of new promotion come out in the summer!! so wait about of new thing for July. đ
...
If you decide that you would like to add the nights and weekends you can just go ahead and add them as part of the optional features. this way you wont have to extend your contract but you get N&W free, you'll just have to pay the add-on charge every month.
...
the 1000 minutes and unlimited nights and weekends for 39.99 is back in certain markets.. you can call customoer service to check if you qualify,,
...
there is a plan of that type available? 1000 anytime and unlimited nights and weekends for 39.99?
...
Yes, I am on that plan, I have 2 accounts on that plan,, it just came back today,, it is called the Get More 1000 Promo ,, available in certain markets, you have to call customer service to get the plan,, it includes 1000 anytime minutes and unlimited nights and weekends,,, and it is only available for a very limited time,, so please call them as soon as you can if you want that plan,, You can also check on their website www.tmobile.com ,,,,
...

...
Yes, the plan is 39.99 , includes 1000 anytime minutes and unlimited nights and weekends, it is call the get more 1000 promo. The same thing happened to me today also, I called and they didn't know anything about it and then I told them that it is on their website when I input my zip code to see what promotions are available in my area, and then they checked again and realized that I was right, so then I was able to sign up for it . I signed up for it today. I am in the San Francisco Region.. Just call them back up again and ask them if they can check if the Get More 1000 Promo 39.99 including 1000 anytime and unlimited nights and weekeds is in your region area. Most of the customer service people arent' even aware that is is being offered r...

...
i checked online and its not listed, just 1000 and 1500 with no nights and weekends is listed for 39.99 âšī¸
...
Did you input yout zip code? You have to do that first, because the first time I looked, It only showed what you said... but then I cleared my "cookies" on Internet explorer, close Internet explorer, and then opened it again, went to that page , and then it asked me to input my zipcode. Once my zipcode was in there, then it pulled up the promo ,,,
...
i told them what i pay at cingular, 29.99 since i get an employee discount where i work, they would only offer me the 1000 with no nights and weekends for 39.99, didnt even mention that new 1500 with no nights and weekends. I was hoping they would mention that plan u said.
...
HI I don't know it you read my post to you I posted a few minutes ago ,, but please call customer service and ask them to check yoru region for promotions. Most of the customer service people aren't even aware that it is available. I just started today. I signed up for it today and I am in the San Freancisco Region. it is call the Get More 1000 Promo , 1000 anytime minute and unlimited nights and weekends. You can even go to the website and input your zipcode to find out what promotions are available in your area. That is how I found out that my area was offering it . When I told customer service, they didn't even know and then they checked and realized that I was right and that is is being offered.
...
whats your zipcode so i can see what it is...i know its not listed on the tmobile site for me âšī¸
...
I am so sorry that it is not offered in your area,, I hope they offer it to you soon,, I am really happy with t-mobile... no complaints about them,,
...
how the heck do i get this plan? cant i lie and say i live in san fransico? lol
...
hahaa well you could be living in the San Francisco Region area , but your billing address might have to match where you
live unless they allow you to have your billing address different from your home address...

...
or how about i lie and put in the san fran zipcode and use my own adress after signing up?
...
they will ask you to provide your actual physical home address and actual billing address,,, that would be difficult to do. The computer won't let you sign up by just putting in a zip code,,
...
im annoyed at this...i want to switch, u think they would try to offer me a comparable plan, which they have not done. Knowing i pay 29.99, u think theyd offer me a 39.99 plan which is comparable.
...
You should go online and look at the rate plans that are offered. It'll show all the ones offered in your area, not just the ones some rep will tell you over the phone.
