T-Mobile Announces Price Increase for Some Legacy Plan Customers
T-Mobile is notifying certain legacy plan customers about an impending price increase. According to reports from 9to5Google, many users on the online forum Reddit, specifically in the r/tmobile community, have shared that they received text messages indicating their monthly charges will increase by $5 per line starting on April 2nd.
Reason Behind the Increase
In an internal memo, T-Mobile consumer group president Jon Freier stated that the price adjustment is intended to address "rising costs" faced by the company. The memo further revealed that affected customers would be notified by the end of the day on which the memo was issued.
Who Will Be Affected?
CNET reported that it remains unclear which specific legacy plans will see the price increases. However, new Go5G, Go5G Plus, and Go5G Next subscribers will not be impacted by these adjustments. Notably, T-Mobile had previously raised rates for some older plans by $2 to $5 last year, and Freier mentioned that no line that has experienced a previous increase will face an additional hike as part of this initiative.
T-Mobile's Commitment to Customers
In a statement via their support account on X, T-Mobile reassured users that while most customers are not included in this increase, they are completing the price adjustments started last year in response to rising operational costs. They emphasized their ongoing commitment to providing competitive prices and value across all plans.
Exception for Price Lock Customers
It was also clarified that these changes should not affect customers who have Price Lock, ensuring those users will maintain their agreed rates.
Conclusion
As T-Mobile continues to address its operational challenges, some legacy plan customers may need to prepare for increased billing starting in April. It’s advisable for users to stay informed about their specific plan details and any communications from T-Mobile.
