If you are a T-Mobile customer who remained unaffected by last year’s price hikes, there may be troubling news ahead. Those migrated from Sprint to T-Mobile after their merger in 2020 may face increased monthly costs soon.
While there are no official announcements yet, sources within T-Mobile indicate a strong belief among employees that a price increase is likely to be revealed as early as tomorrow, March 13. An announcement was hinted at in a now-deleted Reddit post, suggesting it will not be well-received by customers.
As for why you should prepare for a potential price hike, CEO Mike Sievert previously mentioned that such changes might occur. An insider at T-Mobile, who wishes to remain anonymous, claims there is a 70 percent likelihood of a price increase being confirmed tomorrow, effective next month.
Conversations among employees suggest they are bracing for a surge of complaints starting this Thursday. The sentiment around a possible price hike isn’t new, but recent incentives and overtime pay for various departments hint that significant changes may be in the offing.
An insider’s concerns regarding internal documents mentioning an April 2025 cutoff date suggest T-Mobile might soon alter legacy Sprint plans, leading to increased rates. However, if you were never a Sprint subscriber, there’s a chance you could avoid these hikes.
Those who opted for migrations from Sprint plans to T-Mobile packages or experienced automatic transfers may need to start budgeting for higher costs. It’s still possible that the announcement could contain good news rather than a price increase.
For instance, employees speculate that T-Mobile might introduce a new “Starlink plan” in an attempt to soften the impact of rising costs. Until details emerge, it’s best to remain open to all possibilities regarding tomorrow’s announcement.
