[B]The first set involves a free app, T-Mobile Tuesdays, which will initially give customers a free medium two-topping Domino's pizza, a small Wendy's Frosty, a $5.50 credit for a Vudu digital movie rental, and a ticket to the movie Warcraft[/B], with other similar giveaways to follow each Tuesday. On June 14, the giveaway will be a $15 Lyft ride. On June 21, it's a $20 MLB gift card. On June 28, nab a 1-year subscription to Bon Appetit magazine. More giveaways will come from partners including Samsung, StubHub, JackThreads, Hotel Tonight, Fandango, MLB, MGM Resorts, Buffalo Wild Wings, and Gilt, according to a slide displayed by T-Mobile at a Monday event. "I'm gonna thank you like you've never been thanked before," Legere said. "You deserve a good thanking." [B]T-Mobile is giving every customer a share of stock, currently valued around $44, as a second gift[/B][/quote] As a T-mobile user this is really awesome, they are also giving free GoGo internet to all flights that use it
Wow, they have been killing it lately in the service department Too bad that reception in my area is so bad that my phone dies in like 8 hours trying to keep a decent signal :v:
Really wish they used this money to improve their network infrastructure instead..
AT&T never buys me pizza...
[QUOTE=soulharvester;50467977]Really wish they used this money to improve their network infrastructure instead..[/QUOTE] I can't really say I've had too much trouble with their infrastructure even after driving coast to coast. Sure they are no Verizon, but for the cost/value I can't say I am displeased with it.
i'm on t-mobile how do I get my free pizza
[QUOTE=iamgoofball;50468047]i'm on t-mobile how do I get my free pizza[/QUOTE] T-Mobile Tuesday app from the app store
fuk I missed the pizza.
[QUOTE=HTS CONNER;50468251]fuk I missed the pizza.[/QUOTE] Pizza is tomorrow as long as you get the app you will accumulate free shit
Does this include any tmobile user? I have the 30 dollars a month pay as you go thing, which has like 100 mins + unlimited text & data or some shit.
[QUOTE=CrimsonChin;50468492]Does this include any tmobile user? I have the 30 dollars a month pay as you go thing, which has like 100 mins + unlimited text & data or some shit.[/QUOTE] It works based off your phone number and ability to have it installed on a device with virgin mobile as the carrier. You download the app, install it put your phone # in and get a text then free deals. The Stock thing is contract users only I believe
I moved away from T-Mobile after their CEOs remarks about the EFF. Shit doesn't slide with me.

The whole binge on thing is a non issue to me, videos seem to load fine and I really don't care about 480p on a 5 inch phone, it's much better than the alternative of facing small datacaps.
Looks like I'm not eligible with their 30$ unlimited data and text with 100 minutes plan.
[quote] and a ticket to the movie Warcraft[/quote] aaaand suddenly the WoW movie just topped box office charts...

Verizon is very content with their large network, jacking up prices and passing by with "just enough" coverage to have a large network. Tmo, has recently began purchasing up the 700mhz band around me, which is going to be great once they start rolling it out in the deserts in my area. They've also on average had a higher signal strength in areas where both T-mobile and Verizon had coverage.
[QUOTE=soulharvester;50467977]Really wish they used this money to improve their network infrastructure instead..[/QUOTE] Improve? Or expand? Because if you live in an area that's fully covered under T-Mobile's network, you experience some of the fastest and most consistent mobile internet on the planet imho. And I've bounced around from Verizon to Sprint before finally going back to T-Mobile.
sucks that the place i moved to doesn't have lte coverage
Binge on was a huge non issue. As soon as they implemented it and I noticed nuked youtube and twitch quality on my phone it took 2 minutes on google to find how to go into your account settings and disable it. 2 lines of unlimited 4g LTE text and call for 100$ no credit check no contract is dope. Now I get free pizzas and a movie ticket. Glad I dropped Verizon's ass.

[QUOTE=patq911;50468756]Looks like I'm not eligible with their 30$ unlimited data and text with 100 minutes plan.[/QUOTE] The FAQ in the app says that we should be eligible and I've read around on reddit that T-Mobile are looking into fixing it.
Did you know that T-Mobile cancels service without notice when you roam data on another network(AT&T)? 30mb roamed on AT&T got my 10 year service canceled... Such a load of shit.

[QUOTE=JohnFisher89;50468112]T-Mobile Tuesday app from the app store[/QUOTE] FUCK i have a flip phone
I feel so lucky that I have my grandfathered unlimited data plan on Verizon only thing that sucks is I have 450 minutes but oh well. I only pay $100 a month so I don't mind. Isn't T-Mobile around the same price only it's unlimited text/calls/data? I don't use much of my minutes and already have unlimited texts so it's a no brainer for the better coverage that I get with Verizon.

I think I pay 60/mo for 3GB 4G + rollover of stuff I don't use up to something like 10 or 13GB

[QUOTE=apierce1289;50469469]So T-Mobile doesn't have truly unlimited 4G LTE data?[/QUOTE] They do it just costs around 90 bucks for the full unlimited 4G TLE plan, after the binge on plan I think I have only run through my data+rollover reserve once. Once you run out of 4G TLE they just throw you to the 3G or H+
[QUOTE=CrimsonChin;50468492]Does this include any tmobile user? I have the 30 dollars a month pay as you go thing, which has like 100 mins + unlimited text & data or some shit.[/QUOTE] Even then, it only includes T-Mobile users who use an phone using Android or iOS. Shitty, imo.
