Hello all! I have T-Moblie at the moment but I'm thinking of switching
if I can find a cheaper plan that gives me around the same amount of
minutes. 600 any time & free nights and weekends. Nights start at 9:00
pm. Anything better out there? It's about $40.00 amonth. No, I don't
need more than 600 minutes!
It's just about right.

Thanks!

The 40/mo plan ATT is pushing right now has 1000 anytime minutes. I suppose,
you should be able to get a cheaper rate with only 600 min. I don't know.

You have a URL for that?

My bad...last time I checked it was there.

I correctly figured you were making it up.

Well, you're incorrect in "figuring" that, but quite honestly, I don't give
a rat's a.s what you think. Why would I make it up?

It suddenly can't be found. Likely it was never there.

Wow, you're awesome. You mean you've never seen something advertised on a
website one day and gone the next? All I know is that I was paying 29.95 for
1000 minutes. To get a deal on the phone I wanted, they wanted me to pay
39.95 for the same 1000 minutes which *was* on their website. I told them
they needed to sweeten the deal because 10 bucks/mo for the same minutes
will negate the discount on the phone real fast. They offered 1400 minutes,
and that was that.

Get a life putz. From what I've read here, you don't even subscribe to ATT
so why are you here? Do you work for Verizon?

Oh, a Local plan.
mgg - 20 Apr 2004 03:26 GMT
Like you know??? The 29.95/1000 minutes NEVER even existed, so how can you
know it's a local plan? Every CSR I talked to over the last 4 years wondered
how I even got it. I got it by haggling with a CSR every time I called. None
of this web crap. Go ahead Mr.know-it-all call ATT and ask them if there
*EVER* was a 29.95 plan that gave you 1000 peak minutes, unlimited
nights/weekends, roaming, and free long distance. They will say
emphatically, NO. Guess what...up until 2 weeks ago *I* had that
non-existant plan.

So, how can you possibly tell that I had a local plan when the plan never
"officially" existed? I will admit that my new plan with 1400 minutes *is*
local (with free long distance), but I did the math, and it's cheaper for me
to do that with the limited amount of travel that I do.

You never answered...do you work for Verizon?

Thats new information. Its 4 years old.....

You're obviously a waste of time, so I won't waste mine on you anymore.

If everyone here would stop responding to your dribble, you might go away.
Have fun fishing!

I have a URL for a T-Mobile national GSM plan that's $40 w/ 1000 anytime,
unlimited n/w (with unlimited friday depending on your area/location). 2
year contract required.

http://www.t-mobile.com/plans/NationalRatePlanDetails.asp?PlanID=4632

It probably won't do you much good though, since it's only for new
activations in certain geographic areas.

It was available in certain markets, but it seems it's no longer available
in mine anymore as of today. You may have different results.

Thats called a local plan. so if you activate it in Chicago, all minutes
used in Cleveland are high priced roaming minutes.

Er....it's a national plan. Not a local plan.

That's a great plan. I get 1000 anytime minutes, unlimited nights &
weekends, free long distance from my calling area for $39.99. I added
a second line for $9.99. In fact the plan I got was only offered in my
area for thirty days. They are now ofgferi
