If there is an established thread, please point me at it.
I’ve been a Sprint customer for the last 3 decades. Prior to having a smart phone, I was paying approx $70 a month for two phones. When I made the leap to smart phones, my rate jumped to $135 a month for 2 iPhones.
Today I was in Costco, a warehouse type store in the US and got into a casual conversation with a rep who sells phones for the major carriers in the US. My initial purpose was to look at a iPhone X display, but they had none. However, I discovered for the iPhone 8s, that TMobile has a 2 for 1 purchase deal at $695 total (actually you pay $1400 and they send you a Mastercard with a $700 credit on it). And if you are 55 or older, you can have 2 iPhones, unlimited data and text for $60 a month, taxes and fees included, not a temporary promotion.
Frankly I was shocked. My understanding is that the carriers have gotten away from contracts. If I make the change now to TMobile, I’d pay $300 a phone and more importantly save $840 a year in monthly charges.
Is there a reason, I should not jump all over this?
Looking for information and opinions. Thanks!

- Is T Mobile a decent company?
- If you are a TMobile Customer, have you been happy with them? Any known issues with them?
- I live in Houston, any known T Mobile issues there?
- From a coverage standpoint, my understanding is that T Mobile is a step up over Sprint.
- Can any of the major companies match this deal?
