“T‑Mobile will never change the price you pay for your T‑Mobile ONE plan.” That was the promise. The Un-contract. The whole reason millions of customers picked the magenta team over Verizon and AT&T in the first place.

        I knew that, but I have a feeling Verizon will push TF users to Visible and shut down TF. There has been issues with other prepaid users who can’t get airtime or minutes without issues.
