T-Mobile has confirmed its plans to automatically transition users from some of its older unlimited plans to pricier alternatives this week. This development holds significance as customers on the affected plans, which include One, Simple Choice, Magenta, and Magenta 55 Plus, can anticipate higher bills commencing in November unless they choose to opt out.
Notably, this move occurs three years after T-Mobile's merger with Sprint, a deal that faced opposition from a group of state attorneys general and raised concerns about potential price hikes for customers.
In the latest update, T-Mobile is initiating the process by sending notifications to users on older plans, outlining the impending changes. The carrier has disclosed that this transition will result in an approximate $10 increase per line, but individuals opting for autopay can save $5 per line, according to a spokesperson cited by CNET.
For those wishing to retain their existing plans, opting out is an option. However, this necessitates contacting T-Mobile's customer support line at 1-800-TMOBILE or 1-800-866-2453 to facilitate the process.
