T-Mobile’s new deal, add a line $5, still eligible for a phone upgrade

Today T-Mobile had a super fun conference call regarding their new add-a-line deal they began promoting recently. Okay it wasn’t that fun, but their example customers such as the Rastafarian Adam were a blast to watch. T-Mobile is now going to allow new and existing customers add additional lines for only $5.00 a month. Previous price was $10.00 and this is only applicable to lines 3-5. If you already have 3-5 people on a family plan you can have your rates for lines 3-5 reduced from $10.00 to $5.00 a month by extending your contract for another 2 years. This seems ridiculous in a way because usually rate changes or plan changes don’t affect your contract terms, but if you were already eligible for a subsidized phone on your T-Mo plan and you sign the new 2 year agreement, you can still upgrade your phone with a subsidy even after the new 2 year was signed. These offers only apply to the 750 and 1500 minute family plans. So if you plan on staying with T-Mobile for a while, you have one of these 2 rate plans, and want to add a new line or reduce the price of your existing lines, now is the time to do so!
