Taxes and fees not included: T-Mobile’s latest price lock is nearly meaningless | T-Mobile makes 5-year price guarantee after refusing to honor lifetime price lock.


T-Mobile makes 5-year price guarantee after refusing to honor lifetime price lock.

T-Mobile raised prices on the supposedly price-locked plans about a year ago, triggering a flood of complaints to the Federal Communications Commission and a class action lawsuit. The promise is thus that the base price of a service plan won't change, but T-Mobile gives itself wide discretion to add or increase fees on customers' monthly bills. "Guarantee means that we won't change the price of talk, text, and 5G smartphone data on our network for at least 5 years while you are on an Experience plan," T-Mobile said today.
