Thank you. I'm curious as to why I don't hear more people talking about this (on a wider scale). It seems like a no brainer.
I'm adding a line for my iPad, luckily I bought a Mini 4 last year. Now it's totally worth it!
You can get a SIM card for 99 cents mailed to you from T-Mobile.

It would not be completely free, since taxes and fees are not included in the offer. I estimate that would cost you around $8/mo depending on where you live. So, unless you are planning to start using that line within a year, it's probably not worth it.
Ah. Good catch. Not much, but if it's going completely unused it's something.
That shouldn't apply to those on Tmobile One though since taxes and fees are included. This should amount to a $25 bill credit. At least in theory... I'll ask today when I sign up for my tablet line.
Sweet. If you wouldn't mind letting me know your findings that would be awesome. Thanks!
Just got it... and they confirmed no taxes for Tmo ONE users... but better news... KICKBACK can be activated! So if I use less than 2gb I'm getting a $10 credit on top of my discounts. So I'm actually saving $10 to have this line just sit there an never be used. Already activated my Kickback on the website. This deal is INSANE!
EDIT: The Kickback was also confirmed by the CS rep at Tmo.

210 vs 100/mo. It seems like an easy choice, but last time with T-Mobile, there was no signal at work or in the basement at home.
They increased the price of the sim starter kits to $25 bucks! No activation fees, but this is ridiculous.
I switched last weekend, if you have a Costco membership they waive the SIM card fee.
Sweet! I've always been able to get free ones from just calling in to TMo and asking. They've always sent me one rush delivery and I get it within 2-3 days.
Loving my unlimited Data iPad Mini 4!
