Switch Your Family, Save Up to 20% Each Month and Get Nearly 100% More 5G Coverage

• What’s the news: Now, T-Mobile will pay off what you owe the Carriers for your smartphone up to $1,000 when you switch.
• Why it matters: AT&T and Verizon have spent millions (billions?) giving their customers 5G, but those customers must be asking: 'Where’s the 5G?' T-Mobile is answering them. Those customers can switch to Essentials, get their phone paid off, save up to 20% on their family plan each month and get nearly 100% more 5G coverage.
• Who it’s for: AT&T and Verizon customers who are paying more and getting less 5G coverage.

Q: Where's the 5G? A: At T-Mobile. Today, T-Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS) announced that the Un-carrier will now pay off what you owe the Carriers for your eligible smartphone up to $1,000. Beginning Friday, October 22, consumers and small businesses can bring their favorite 5G-phones-with-less-5G-coverage-than-they-deserve over to the Un-carrier and T-Mobile will give them the 5G they've been searching for … AND up to $1,000 for each of up to five devices via virtual prepaid MasterCard.

"AT&T and Verizon customers with brand-new 5G phones often find themselves without 5G coverage. According to the latest third party tests, AT&T customers get a 5G signal less than half the time (44.8%) they use their phone, and Verizon customers only about a third of the time (34.3%)," said Jon Freier, Consumer Group President at T-Mobile. "Now, those customers can switch to T-Mobile, and we’ll pay off what they owe the Carriers for their smartphone up to $1,000 — and they’ll save up to 20% on their family plan and get way more 5G coverage."

Bring Your Own Smartphone. It'll Work.

Today, almost 50% of US consumers believe their smartphone won’t work with another provider.¹ At one time, that was true, but those days are long gone. Now, the most popular smartphones work across different providers' networks … even if those networks aren’t giving customers equal results. In fact, customers get a lot more 5G at T-Mobile on America’s largest, fastest and most reliable 5G network that’s nearly 2x larger than AT&T's and 4x larger than Verizon's.

With T-Mobile Essentials, your family can save up to 20% off wireless service each month compared to AT&T and Verizon's basic unlimited plans. With your third line free, it’s just $27 per line/mo (plus taxes and fees) for four lines — that’s $420 saved per year over the Carriers — and you’ll get:

• Unlimited talk, text and 5G smartphone data included at no extra charge
• Team of Experts, the most awarded customer care in wireless
• An unparalleled set of free tools to protect from scams and unwanted robocalls with Scam Shield Premium
• Weekly free stuff and discounts from T-Mobile Tuesdays

Starting Friday, October 22, just bring your phone into T-Mobile along with a picture of your last bill, and T-Mobile will pay off your remaining eligible device payments up to $1,000 via virtual prepaid MasterCard.
