T-Mobile's Uncarrier 11 event was June 6 2016. Not only did they announce that they're expanding their partnership with Gogo to give all customers a free hour of Wi-F + free iMessage, WhatsApp, Google Hangouts, and Viber messaging throughout the entire duration of the flight... they are also starting a weekly rewards giveaway called T-Mobile Tuesdays.
More info here - https://explore.t-mobile.com/t-mobile-tuesdays
Everyone with a T-Mobile account gets free rewards.
New rewards each Tuesday (they seem to expire the day after, Wednesday night)
Just download 'n' install the app then open it and enter your number to receive the text confirmation - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tmobile.tuesdays
Based on some reviews in the app store some customers on prepaid are having issues.. although the terms state it should work for those on prepaid. YMMV I guess. Pay As You Go does NOT qualify. :fingers-crossed:
Those on a Voice plan also get stock shares. You have 15 days to claim your free share.
You can earn more shares by referring new people to T-Mobile. I believe you can earn up to 100 shares per year.
For the first week (June 7) customers can get:
Free Dominos pizza
Free frosty from Wendys
Free Warcraft movie ticket
Free movie rental from VUDU
There will also be random prizes to be won... and you don't need to be a T-Mobile customer to participate in the random prizes. :good:
Free stuff list for June 14 2016:
Free Dominos pizza
Free frosty from Wendys
Free ride using Lyft for up to $15
Free movie rental from VUDU
Free stuff list for July 14 2016:
Free, unlimited data on Pokémon Go, so it won’t touch your high-speed data—for a full year!
Free Lyft rides up to $15 to get to a new PokéStop or Gym
Free Wendy’s Frosty to fuel up for your hunting trip
50% off select accessories – including portable power packs and chargers at T-Mobile stores – so you can keep on playing for hours
On top of that, 250 people will each win $100 in PokéCoins, and five people will win a Pokémon Go hunting trip anywhere in the U.S. for themselves and a guest!
T-Mobile is currently (and has been all day it seems) getting tanked with server hits. If you open the app and it shows that you have nothing, do not worry. They are aware of the massive amounts of server connections and are taking measures to correct the issue. Your offers will show up once it's all been fixed.
ProTip: Until the app works smooth and without issue for you, DO NOT spin the wheel. The wheel is a place to win additional things from T-Mobile. However, with the high volume of server requests currently, clicking "Play now" will only result in you losing the opportunity to actually spin the wheel. Again, something they are aware of and are working to fix it.
heads up, from what I gathered (and my personal luck) not everyone gets that wheel, others have to break through a wall. Also don't do that yet, I got nothing so that sucks for me haha.
i dealt with the app freezing up and kicking me out all day, eventually it just said "you already played" even though i really didnt.
just checked now and it showed the offers i could redeem so i got the pizza code.. does it only let you redeem one offer or something?

Anyone still doing these? I noticed that you can use the rental value ($5.50) on VUDU toward purchasing a movie. They have a selection of 9 films purchasable in HDX (HOLY CRUD) for $5. Soooo, assuming you like one of those, you can buy a digital copy for free. So far, I've nabbed The Happening (for watching with rifftrax), Blade II, and, the crown jewel, Team America because of this nifty tidbit.

Wicked... Shame it's still all the same stuff... WAIT, where's the VUDU cred!?
So, the VUDU credit is gone for this week, at least. We all got our free Pokémon Go data, I presume. Did anyone spin the wheel and actually get something? There's a null space, and there's a 50% off charging accessories in store, which you get anyway, so it's a null space.

For those waiting for the Android version to be released, it was this morning! Unfortunately, it appears to be just a port of the iPhone version. Our Android keys (Menu, Home, Back, Search) do not work. So bigger screens may have an issue reaching the in-app keys at the top of the screen. Other than that, it's pretty well polished. Changed some classes this morning and sent them to the game.

Its free!!!
The app is free. The standard Elite service is free and the Premium service is $49.99. To see what you get in the Premium service, click here. IMO, the best reason to go Premium is free dlc ($45 value) and you get it before non-premium members.
Ewww COD!

DLC is $45? Whoa, what happened to the $19.99?
I would get Premium but unfortunately I don't have the funds to do so nor will I have then by the time the first DLC is released. Do ya'll think if I get Premium later I will be able to buy everything that has already been released?

Dlc has been $15 per pack for the past couple of games usually with 3 packs being released power game. That would give you the $45 reference (all 3 packs).
They're also found the dlc a little different for premium members. Free "Content Drops" every month. First one is next week (2 new maps). People without Elite can purchase the map packs at a later date (1st pack supposedly coming Feb/Mar).

I downloaded the app but it refused to allow me to log in so I uninstalled it.
As for the new DLC I'm not feelin' how the XBox 360 players are enjoying those new maps before the PS3 users. I'm a premium user (bought the Hardened Edition on launch day) but for the PS3 version and it sucks when the only game-related content available now is the dynamic theme while they've been advertising the new maps on XBL for at least a couple weeks.

Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Yeaaa, I don't think SERO is around any more.
Ya, SERO is long gone. There is another plan for friends and family members. But, it is in your sponsers name. So, if you don't pay your bill they would know and they would be responsible for it. I wouldn't think anyone would chance it for someone online. Plus, from time to time they change requirements. A few years ago there was a limit of the number of family members. If they reincorporate a limit that would really suck if it was used by people you didn't even know.
And, if anyone on the plan is behind on their bill no one can upgrade their phone until the bill is caught up.
Like the previous poster said. No one would chance it.
The Advantage Plan(s) details and fine print have changed quite a bit, and even a little more since I was hired last year.
We can have up to 30 lines, which is pretty wonderful! But only 1 personal line is FREE (other lines we could open cost $40 a month for unlimited everything) and 1 tablet (accessory) line, with an optional hotspot, etc.
More-or-less, that is some risky business for anyone who would be willing to provide that information via the internet.

Thanks for this information. However, the "Everything Plus Referral Program Shoppers Private Store" for the Philadelphia location prices are exactly the same as the standard store...
I still have SERO which needs to be changed to "SERO Premium" to activate a decent phone. They've nerfed SERO a lot in the past few years, it's still slightly better than a 25% corporate discount but not by much. Hardly worth the hassle to get it now IMO. Find a 25% corporate discount which is almost as good. You'll pay a few bucks more but suffer less inconvenience doing things like upgrading phones.

ok....did you log into the referral site 1st and then tried to compare the Philadelphia prices. If so clear your browser cache because it saves the referral info. The last time i checked, it was at least a $10 discount $69.99 for everything data 500 and $59.99 thru the referral site. I know if you go to certain schools or work for certain companies you would be eligible for a % of your bill.

All corporate discounts actually require you to have an email registered with our system for verification (aka @ibm.com email for me) Or if your email isnt recognized you have to fax/email in a form with proof of employment with that company, IE badge, Paystub and so on. Its a hassle but really cracks down on stores just throwing discounts on customers account for waste management (used to be sprints highest at 30%) And giving their customer discounts they really aren't eligible for.
Also on a side note a 70 year old man called me a tool in the corporate machine today because I wouldn't adjust his valid voice overages, then called in later and tried to tell an agent he was terminally ill and we should cancel his account...

You can get EPRP which is 59.99 a month for 500 minutes and unlimited everything else.
I've never had a problem with sending in proof for my corporate discount. However, I do actually work for the company I say I do and my discount is pretty nice. It is offset a little by the 10 dollar premium data bull because it doesn't work half of the time. Eh, you win some, you lose some.
But this is for new customers only...

when exactly did you see this and what zip code did you use? When I do a search theydont show the price. Meaning if Best Buy cant confirm the price its a no go. Ironically they show prices on other phones but when I use my zip it shows no available which means I need a zip code that shows a state that has them... Mine is in transit from BB after returning it back to Sprint Store for $50 less at Best But THEN of couse I see this. Not too late though since I havent even received it yet

I wouldn't worry about the shipping time for Amazon. I just switched from Verizon to Sprint because of this Amazon deal for $99 and it originally said 1-2 week wait. On Dec 27 looked at my account and it said that it wouldn't ship until Feb 4th, the next day I received an email stating it was shipped and was here 2 days later.
I'm so glad I got this phone for $99, makes the sting of not having 4G any more better since this phone is fast as hell. Now I just need to sell my VZW Nexus.
Best buy denied me! No online only price match.

They can't deny online price, they can only deny the new price for a renewal. I would go back and if they still say no talk to the store manager and if still nothing then call the 1800 number. The online price match is a best buy policy that may be extended for the rest of the year. My local store said if they take it away they will still honor it. Good luck and don't just let them do whatever they want. Fight for it.
Sent from my Amazing Galaxy Note 2!
I would buy it from walmart.com, especially if you live in a state like my state (CA) that charges prices on the full retail amount of the phone before discounts. a phone like the Note 2 is easilly a $50+ tax, but on walmart.com, they don't charge tax so it's $139 out the door. I bought mine last month when it was $199 ($299-$100 walmart gift card) and was charged no tax on the phone.

Thanks dude for clarifying that
Technically you'll still have unlimited data, just at a much slower speed.
You would be surprised how many company s are doing this already. There are actually many cable company's that are doing this also. This is unfair for those that use peer-to-peer networking to transfer non illegal stuff.
Honestly t-mobile is the only company that offers truly I unlimited at a reasonable price. Att for 2 lines I would have to pay 60 and he 5gb of data to SPLIT between the 2 lines.

I could go on.
A lot of movie studios, record company, and independent artist will do this to hype there movie or even get people to donate to them and lets the consumer pay what they want for the movie. A good example of this would be a small mom and pop store may practically give things away to get people in the door and away from the big business. So in Turn if people can down load the torrents the company will not make money.....But the fact is the portion of people that are doing this is pretty small, but some people still do it. Again just like the amount of people that will shop at a mom and pop store opposed to Walmart,Target,Whole Foods,Ex...
I just ditched att after 6 years because they were throttling my data at 5gs. I unlocked the sim, bought a tmo sim for $10.75 and now I pay 80per month for unlimited data, phone, tx, with zero throttling and no contract. I get extremely fast 20-30 mbps download speeds and have ditched the $45 per month att wifi. I am at almost 100gs this month by running my n3, laptop, and kids ipads. I do not go to torrent download sites at all, am I in jeopardy of being throttled by tmo ???
yep; if you continue to use 100 gigs per month, eventually you will be throttled..
XiPhoneUzer, I did the exact same. I paid more than necessary for YEARS to hold on to my "Grandfathered Unlimited Plan" despite generally using wifi and using (sometimes well) under 2 gigs of mobile data every month for the prior year (not to mention crippled, locked-down bootloader phones). It was the "just in case" mentality, ya know? Well, about a year ago now, "just in case happened"... I lost power in my apartment for like a week (obviously no modem / router / computers...) Man, I sure was glad I held on to that Unlimited plan! Immediately started watching some Netflix and... taking care of business (such as downloading a couple new Linux ISOs). Well, I hit 5 gigs mobile data that night. Got a warning message at like 4990 MB, then 5 mins later, my connection was immediately throtled down to completely "can't load a webpage" unusable. ATT reps were super helpful, like, "Man, that's too bad." and "At least you only have to wait until next Wednesday." Wouldn't even "let" me pay for more data with a usable connection! ... I no longer make use of their services.
On topic... my concern is: Is this going affect people who use clearly legitimate apps / services like BT Sync? That is, am I going to need to keep my KeePass database synced across devices via USB otg every time I update it on my computer, or some multi-step LAN upload? No, I'm not cool with keeping that kind of thing on GDrive or whatever.
You guys need to research and chill. They are only interested in the very top downloaders. These are people moving Terrabytes/month. Your 100GB is probably not even on the radar. They are also only applying the throttle to those users when the network is crowded and those people are causing problems for other users on the network. This is not the time to freak out about it. Watch, and call them on their BS, should it be called for, but for now, it's really not. This isn't a comcast style "kill all connections that look like bittorrent" deal.
To give some idea of scale, they claimed that they were contacting 20 users for this first time. Seems quite reasonable, right now. If they start to get bad, they have to know they will be called out on it. Save the rage, we might need it later.
I'll be ordering my edge tomorrow. Is there any benefit to pre-ordering from the Website, or should I head over to a store?

I believe you will get it a whole day earlier if you order directly from Samsung.
I can't think of the exact words to describe how underwhelming that offer is.

Apologies just realised that the title of your post refers to T-Mobile.

No unless you want to play with the phone. On the Web you can do it from the comfort of you couch with annoying sales reps.

If ur trading in a phone to put towards purchase the store can do it instantly, ordering on line there's a 2 week delay

If you order on a store, you can put a certain amount of money down and decrease the amount paid each month or the amount of months left to pay.
If ordering online, you only have the option given according to your credit.
-Edit. They only have Black and White?! I really wanted the Green version.

Article was posted online yesterday that US carriers are not getting green anytime soon.
Gold should be available to order on T-mo in the next week or two.
Remember that if you purchase it at a T-Mobile Corporate Store you won't have to screw around in case you want to return the device. If you order online, you have to ship it back (you pay for shipping) and only then will you receive a credit on your bill...in 2 billing cycles!

if you are a new jump user and put more extra money down it lowers your payment each month. However, if you're a existing jump user the payment stays the same no matter how much you put down the only thing that lowers is the amount of months you'll pay.
I just pre-order mine from Tmobile online and will get the phone on the March 30th. I did pick one day shipping tho...
I preordered as well online and will get it March 30th with one day shipping
