T-Mobile is dropping unexpected gifts on users for the next 30-days, and it’s kicking things off by giving existing customers three-months of free LTE for no extra charge.
The wireless network announced its ‘Un-carrier Unwrapped’ promotion today that will see the company giving away one special gift each week. These won’t just be any regular gifts though. The Un-carrier will aim the gifts at Sprint, AT&T, and Verizon customers starting next week as a way to entice users to switch.
“We’ve had a fantastic year, and we’re going to spread that T-Mobile cheer by starting with the most important people first… our existing customers! Now you get Unlimited LTE data on our blazing fast network for three full months as a gift from the Un-carrier to you,” said T-Mobile CEO Legere in a statement. “But that’s not all….we know that Verizon, AT&T and Sprint customers need some holiday cheer, too – so we’ve got presents coming for them. Just wait!”
T-Mobile also has some special holiday offers just in time for Black Friday, including a free tablet when you sign up for a data plan, the Samsung Galaxy S6 32GB for $0 down, and the UE Boom Bluetooth speaker for $100 off.

No thanks. Keep all your gifts Tmo.
Last week, I stopped at “Family Dollar” because I had never been in one. While there, I found a “Red Pocket” SIM starter kit which cost $12.99. It works with AT&T, TMobil, and Verizon coverage and service. It’s also the same rate regardless of the coverage you select, and phone compatibility. Inside the kit is two SIMs. Verizon coverage call them with your phone’s serial number.
Our family already has TMobile, but need something more reliable… I was real surprised to learn just how much better AT&T’s coverage is. I once again full coverage in areas where TMobile only had one bar of coverage. And the phone works indoors again too!
When I popped in the SIM, my unlocked T-Mobile iPhone also supported WiFi calling. I doubt I’d ever use it. Our T-Mobile lines will be paid off the week before Christmas. We’ll switch our 5 phones and iPad to AT&T.
Because we have DirecTV, we also qualify for $500 per phone that we cancel with T-Mobile. That means Santa is delivering $2,500 in gifts and promotions when we cancel.
AT&T doesn’t have HBO or Netflix, but the trade off is that the phone works inside. I’m sure AT&T will have movies when their network is able to reliably support that.
Meh…
