Lighting more fire under Verizon and AT&T, T-Mobile is offering two line unlimited family plan for $100 a month. One can Add additional lines at $40 a month. Best part is no overages or guarding the usage, because it is unlimited.
This will provide much ease to parents who has to monitor children's and their own usage of data bandwidth with other carriers. There are usually overage charges based of over usage of shared plans. AT&T and Verizon raked in 1.5 Billion, just only from those charges. Like baggage fee charges by air lines. So by comparison T-Mobile may be the SoutWest of Communications.
The offer is alive through the end of the year.
Press Release;
BELLEVUE, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--T-Mobile (NYSE: TMUS)
is taking a stand for everyone who wants wireless without all the
confusion and without limits for themselves and their families −
unveiling America’s only family plan with unlimited 4G LTE data for the
whole family and a multi-line family discount. Available tomorrow, the
new Simple Choice family plan starts at just $100 per month for two
people – and it goes all the way up to 10 people for just $40 more per
line – when everyone on your plan wants unlimited blazing-fast data on
America’s fastest nationwide 4G LTE network.
This holiday season, the traditional carriers are flooding the airwaves
with a mishmash of confusing shared data promotions. Between them, AT&T,
Sprint and Verizon have 24 different family and promotional rate plans,
and, not surprisingly, 81 percent of people recently polled describe all
the data promotions in the wireless industry as “somewhat confusing” or
“very confusing.” And a full 75 percent say they “hate” policing their
own family members’ data usage on the carrier’s shared data plans, while
more than 40 percent say they often worry about overage penalties on
those plans.
T-Mobile said it’s time to put a stop to the madness. It’s time to free
wireless customers from having to decipher confusing gigabyte
promotions, from policing their own family’s data usage and from
punishing overage charges. The Un-carrier is cutting through the clutter
and complexity with a radically simple idea: everyone on your family
plan uses as much data as they want. And, you can do it at a better
price without ever worrying about domestic overages.
“People are saying loud and clear that they hate the confusion and
complexity of the carriers’ shared data plans, and they should,” said
John Legere, president and CEO of T-Mobile. “These plans are
purpose-built to do one thing – take money from your pocket and put it
into theirs. They threaten you with punishing overage penalties unless
you police your own family’s data usage or up your data bucket and spend
more every month.
“Unfortunately for American consumers, this scheme is working as
intended,” added Legere. “In 2014, AT&T, Verizon and Sprint pulled in
more than $1.5 billion – yes, with a ‘b’ – in overage penalties. And,
it’s no surprise that AT&T is the worst offender by far – collecting
more than half of overage penalties this year. T-Mobile’s unlimited 4G
LTE family plan is a simpler, saner alternative to the carrier’s crazy
gigabyte games.”
While the industry at large moves away from unlimited plans, T-Mobile is
giving customers more of what they want. In addition to America’s only
unlimited 4G LTE family plan and lightning-fast 4G LTE data for each
family member, customers on T-Mobile’s unlimited LTE family plan also
get all the Un-carrier “Simple Choice” goodness of no annual service
contracts or domestic overages, unlimited talk and text, unmetered music
streaming on T-Mobile’s nationwide network plus unlimited data and
texting in 120+ countries and destinations, next-gen Wi-Fi calling and
free in-flight messaging, among other benefits.
“Of course, every single T-Mobile Simple Choice postpaid customer
immediately qualifies to take advantage of this offer. That’s how the
Un-carrier does it, putting our customers first,” said Legere. “But not
the carriers. Last week, one of them launched a new promotion that not
one of their existing customers could get. That makes my head spin, and
it’s exactly the kind of BS we’re on a mission to end.”
While the old carriers keep peddling their confusing shared data
schemes, the Un-carrier continues to offer far more value, benefits and
bang for the buck.
The Unlimited 4G LTE family plan offer is available starting December
10, 2014 for a limited time. Once you sign up, there is no planned
expiration date – so you can keep the plan even after the offer is no
longer available. All lines on your account must have unlimited 4G LTE
data to continue to qualify.

It’s Back. T-Mobile Re-introduces 4 Lines for $100 with 10GB
of Data
Also, for families who use less high-speed data – but still want to live
worry-free – T-Mobile is re-introducing its most popular promotion in
the last decade. Starting tomorrow for a limited time, for just $100 per
month, a family of four can get up to 10 GB of 4G LTE data − that’s 2.5
GB per line with no sharing required. Your family will get the extra
data until 2016 starts, and after that, you’ll still get 1 GB of 4G LTE
data per line. And, as always, you’ll never face domestic overages when
you use more data.
All that data comes on America’s fastest nationwide 4G LTE network and
with all the benefits of being an Un-carrier customer. That’s a stark
contrast to the carrier promotions, which come with fine print and
gotchas like domestic overages, international roaming fees, hidden
device subsidy costs and more.
Fastest LTE network based on download speeds. Only major national
carrier offering unlimited LTE plan with multi-line family discount.
Taxes & fees addit’l. Qual’g service req’d. Up to 10 lines. Visit
T-Mobile.com for specific offer and coverage details.
