My wife and I are currently paying around $150 a month to have unlimited talk text and web. We've discovered that we don't talk too much and most of our web browsing is done connected to wifi. Does it cost anything to lower your minute plan? Would we have to pay the cancel contract fee to change our plan?

They will let you change your plan with tmo but you will have to extend your contract. This is why I am not going to extend with tmo again. I've found a new service provider called ting that is going to save me and my wife about 30-40 $ a month.

Ohhhh, yeah, i have seen this before, it said i wouldn't save any money haha. Well and its on Sprint's network which isn't great
I downgraded from that plan and was supposed to be paying 100 but now pay 170! For 1000 shared mins so I'd stay on your plan. And its 45 cents a min to go over

I purchased my MT4G from a T-Mobile store for full price without contract and did not pay the additional $25 fee for 4G. Does anyone know if my speed will be limited because I'm not paying that fee?
That $25 is for data alone. You have no data on your plan and will be billed $1.99/mb. You should call and change that.
I'm using the Even More Plus 750 + Unlimited Text & Web.
Yeah but that plan only covers regular internet not "4G" plus the 30 bucks android plan is required AFAIK.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
If you are EM+ 750 TW, that's a Family plan with unlimited data and text/mms on 2 lines, then you share the 750 mins between all the lines. T-Mobile doesn't charge more for the faster internet...yet.
There is no extra charge for 4g, so if you already have the unlimited web, then you're golden. Although you might not get 4g speeds all the time, depending on where you're located.

But can't you only use one phone with this? I think I read somewhere that you can't just pop your SIM card from one phone into another like AT&T and T-Mobile. Anybody know for sure if that's true?

I'm with Simple Mobile now. I can tell you that the Data on their $40/month plan is HORRIBLE. It is throttled to 150Kbps, which is damn near dialup speeds. I wound up just getting the $60/month plan with high speed data and all is well.

You can suspend it for as long as u want but u gonna have to keep paying your bill. Which is stupid since you may as well just leave it on.

If you had the $10 Android plan that they gave out to preferred customers, you'd have a $20 price increase..
But those of us who were unable to get the $10 deal.. 2gb was previous $20.
Considering 5gb was $35, I'd say $30 for completely unlimited is a damn good deal, lol
Did anyone else just lose data? It's redirecting me to a "choose a plan" page but when I click it, it says I have a data plan. Weird :| That was on my phone, non-tether.

But I can say, I looked at the new evo and just like sprint ...they wanted an extra $10 a month for service. Wtf man, that would bring it to $65....

I don't know which market you are on but I'm in LOs Angeles where Sprint SUCKS makor a$$. I am waiting for November to hit and kick Sprint goodbye.
Metropcs is stronger than Sprint in the LA area and offer a phone like LG Motion. It's a decent phone and if not, they are adding new phones every month.
U can check boost mobile and virgin mobile. They r not that expensive. Metropcs is a option 2 but it sucks in my area.U may be aviable to flash ur current phone to use with boost,virgin or metropcs. I've seen treads about how to do it.
