    Talking 2 Tmobile Lines, NO ACTIVATION FEES!!!

    I loved Tmobile when I lived in Colorado. I recently moved to Nebraska to be closer to family, and there is no Tmobile service here. I am looking to do a transfer of responsibility of my two lines. If you know anyone that wants to add lines to a plan but doesn't want to pay the fee, or if you want Tmobile, please email me!

    What happens is I give Tmobile your name and give them permission to give you my contract, then you call and tell them you want to do a transfer of responsibility for my lines. You go through a few things with them... like pick your plan and etc... and then you're done! The $35/activation fee per line is waived!! Also, we ported out our phone numbers, so you will get fresh new numbers!! (You won't get random texts from my friends who didn't know I changed my number! haha)

    If you're interested, let me know and I will get you set up! It's super easy and fast!!!!

    Thanks,

    Marci

    You choose your plan. Essentially it's starting brand new. New numbers, new plan...so whatever fits your needs. You don't have to do what my plan was! That's why it's so great! It's like getting Tmobile with no activation fee!!

    I'll pass. If you transfer the remaining terms of your contract, won't we be stuck on the terms of your plan? That's why people are asking about your plan details. Also, we won't get any subsidize phone prices while you walk away with those devices. BAD DEAL.

    T-mobile will use some other recycled numbers for new activations so you may still get taxts and phone calls from strangers.

    Activation can be waved by setting up corporate,work,school discount on you new account. Somtimes they have web sale with free activation. Also some T-Mobile reps at the store can wave the fee if you bargain with them a little. And retention dept can wave those fees too.

    A good deal would be if op paid me $100 per line. And he would safe $100 by not paying $200 ETF.

    I thought if you could prove you moved, the ETF would be reduced or eliminated.

    3 T-Mobile lines on unlimited "family" plan - me, wife, partner. Averages out to be $44/line unlimited voice + $20 each for 2 BB pkgs. + $25 for 3rd BB +$5 for 400SMS on one line. [Remember 45 cents/min local calls?)

    This.

    But also I am sure this will get deleted since it belongs in the B/S/T but you may want to try a service like celltrade.

    I could see if you had some type of grandfathered plan but I doubt anyone will take it over for free.

    That policy was abused so it was revoked.

    If you don't have an attractive plan or free phones and some cash to give away free activation is not going to sell your contracts.

    .

    But - I thought ETFs, at least, had to be prorated. Thus, you wouldn't be charged a full $200 penalty if you had one month left on a 24 month contract.
