T-Mobile has responded to Verizon's new unlimited data plan by adding HD video and 10GB high-speed mobile hotspot to its T-Mobile ONE plan at no extra charge. Additionally, the carrier introduced a new offer of two lines for $100/month.
The upgrades will be available starting Friday, February 17th. Customers can activate the new features in the T-Mobile app or at my.t-mobile.com.
Customers will get HD quality video streaming and up to 10GB of high-speed Mobile Hotspot data per month, so they can ‘tether’ a laptop or other device to access the Internet. And, after the included 10GB of high-speed data, customers still get unlimited 3G data through the end of the month.
The Un-carrier today also announced a killer new deal for T-Mobile ONE with two lines. Also starting this Friday, February 17, new and existing T-Mobile customers can now get two lines of T-Mobile ONE with monthly taxes and fees included for just $100 per month.
“I don’t blame Verizon for caving. They just lost their network advantage, and they know it … and more importantly, more and more customers know it. Their back’s against the wall,” said John Legere, president and CEO at T-Mobile. “This is what the Un-carrier does—drag the carriers kicking and screaming into the future. Next up, we’re going to force them to include monthly taxes and fees. Mark my words.”
If you want to compare options, I built a cell plan cost calculator tool to help find cheap plans based on usage. I added the new Verizon Unlimited plan to it. You can use it at SiftSwift. com.
The calculator currently includes plans from 35 carriers to compare against.
