The details are as follows:

T-Mobile could pay up to $650 per line for you to switch over to their service.
$300 of that comes from trading in your old device. You may or may not see that much, obviously the price is dependent on the device, how old it is, the condition, etc.

The other $350 comes when you get your final bill from your old carrier that shows your Early Termination Fees (ETF). By uploading your bill or mailing it in, T-Mobile will assess it and then mail you the cash for your fees. Again, up to $350.
You have to switch from Verizon, AT&T, or Sprint.

You have to sign-up for a postpaid Simple Choice plan and also buy a device, which can be done for $0 down, but with a monthly payment spread out over 24 months.

If you are an existing T-Mobile customers in an older plan or contract, you can switch as well to a Simple Choice plan without incurring migration charges.

Thanks for the tip. I have Sprint and have been wanting to ditch them b/c their coverage sucks but the ETF fees were keeping me until contract is up in June. I hear T Mobile has been buying Verizon bandwidth to help with their service. Might have to look into this more.

I've been trying to get out of Tmobile since I moved to NWLA, shittiest coverage ever! I can't wait to leave. Sprint is even superior to Tmobile here. I'm looking at ATT or Verizon once I'm done.

Anybody that needs 2 years to pay off their cell phone probably shouldnt' even have one in the first place.

My roommate who works at AT&T is doing this. Gonna switch to t mobile so he can get a new phone. Then port his number back to AT&T after a few weeks.

So if I were to switch from AT&T, T-Mobile would pay those fees?

How is T-Mobile's service overall?

If you've got AT&T or T-Mobile, switch to Consumer Cellular and cut your bill in half. CC uses the AT&T network so you'll have identical coverage. Bring your own GSM phone and port your existing number for free. And no activation charges.
