Anyone on JUMP and used it to upgrade their phones? How is it and do you really not pay the first or second month of EIP after upgrade? So in a sense, you can upgrade after 6 month and end up only paying 4 months of the phone before getting to upgrade again. Does this make sense?
Got a tip for us?

According to the CS, it takes T-Mobile 1 or 2 months to bill you for the EIP. so let's assume it took 2 months, after upgrading, you are eligible to JUMP after only paying 4 months of the EIP instead of 6 months.
Right now there isn't a down payment. So whenever, there is no down payment, you get to use a new phone for $100 for the EIP payment ($25*4) and $60 for JUMP ($10*6).
But I was wondering if those who has it and used it can confirm this.
I'm interested too then.
Would be like leasing a phone, but get a new one very 6 months after only paying 4 of them.
I don't think anyone has been eligible to use it yet. You have to be enrolled for 6 months, and it's only been available for a couple months now.
True. However, for those who have it, how long did it take before you got your first EIP payment notice after signing up? That would determine how the program will go even after upgrade. Thanks.
