T-Mobile is (almost) ready to pay your family's termination fee on switching
Ahead of T-Mobile's conference at CES 2014, a banner ad that was (allegedly) supposed to surface later began circulating on tech-sites, before someone somewhere in the T-Mob HQ stuck a wrench in its wheels. Its message and purpose were perfectly clear, which is so rare for ads these days. "We'll pay your family's termination fees when you trade in your devices. Switch today." - read the unmistakeably pink advertisement, and clicking through led to a now defunct page on the carrier's website, containing the words "switch-carriers-no-early-termination-fee".
The itty-bitty details on the plan are still scant, but while we're waiting for the company to fill us in at its conference, the small writing on T-Mob's enigmatic ad tells us that “Qual’g service & device purchase with port-in from AT&T, Verizon, or Sprint req’d. Up to 5 lines.” The maximum amount which the carrier is willing to pay is speculated to be $350.
