T-Mobile has new price lock guarantees for you, alongside a special offer too good to pass up
Customers who get T-Mobile Fiber receive the same download and upload speeds, enjoy T-Mobile Tuesdays, and are promised a five-year price lock guarantee. Additionally, you won't have to pay any installation charges or equipment fees. As if all of that wasn't enough, the internet plans that T-Mobile is offering are actually quite reasonably priced as well, in my opinion. T-Mobile Fiber plans consist of the following three packages: 500 Mbps for $80 a month
1 Gbps for $95 a month
2 Gbps for $110 a month
However, if you have a T-Mobile voice line and agree to use autopay, the above prices drop down to $60, $75, and $90 a month respectively. If you don't have a voice line with the carrier but still agree to use autopay, the prices see a discount of $5 per month. Each of these options awards you a five-year price lock guarantee.But, there's more!
T-Mobile Fiber plans. | Image credit — T-Mobile The company has a really lucrative offer named the 'Fiber Founders Club' that is available in a select few locations. If you're eligible for this offer, T-Mobile will give you a 2 Gbps plan at a ridiculously low $70 a month with autopay, and without the need for a voice line. The cherry on top is the whopping 10-year price lock guarantee for this plan.
If I had to guess, this offer is probably only going to be available in locations where AT&T and Verizon are offering fiber services as well. It's a steal at that price, and I know I would have switched in a heartbeat. However, T-Mobile 's largest two competitors offer some killer plans in certain locations — like $20 a month for 300 Mbps with Verizon — and customers will have to be convinced to make the jump.
Now, let's address the elephant in the room. A lot of T-Mobile 's users have complained in recent months that the company increased the prices of their price-locked plans. Furthermore, these new guarantees do not include taxes and additional fees, as the carrier continues to phase out all-inclusive plans. I don't blame anyone who's skeptical of the new price lock guarantees. But I have to be honest, $70 a month for 2 Gbps is a really good deal. Ultimately, though, it depends on how much you care about having the most bandwidth in your neighborhood.
T-Mobile Fiber plans will become available to U.S. customers starting tomorrow on June 5. Switch to Total 5G+ Unlimited 3-Month plan or Total 5G Unlimited and get a free iPhone.

As the beta ends, T-Mobile forces some new T-Satillite subscribers to make a call or visit a store
As you might know, T-Mobile 's T-Satellite service allows a smartphone user in an area where there is no cellular or Wi-Fi connectivity to stay connected via Starlink satellites. At first, users will be limited to sending and receiving text messages and sharing their location via their phone's messaging app. Picture and voice messaging via satellite is also being pushed out now by T-Mobile . The carrier says that next, satellite data from optimized apps will be available. Eventually, users will be able to make and take calls via satellite. T-Mobile users won't have to point their phones at the sky in order to connect to a signal from a satellite. When connected to a satellite, the phone owner will see a SAT icon in the upper right of the phone's screen. T-Mobile points out that there may be short gaps in service when satellites are moving. During one of these short gaps, messages might take longer than usual to send. Even if this is the case, your phone will keep trying to deliver the message, even if you leave your device in your pocket." With the free beta for T-Satellite coming to a close last week, T-Mobile subscribers on the pricier Experience Beyond and Go5G Next plans get T-Satellite as a free perk. Other T-Mobile subscribers on other qualified plans can add the service for $10 per month for a limited time. Eventually, T-Satellite will cost them $15 per month. Non- T-Mobile customers can also sign up for T-Satellite at a rate of $10 per month for a limited time. Eventually, T-Satellite will cost them $15 per month as well. Non-T-Mobile customers who want to subscribe to T-Satellite must now make a call or visit a T-Mobile store. | Image credit-T-Mobile Why did T-Mobile make this change? The carrier says, "Since T-Satellite is now commercially available, we wanted to ensure there wasn't any confusion around the setup or activation process which is why we are directing non T-Mobile customers to call or visit a retail store." Keep in mind that there are 60 eligible devices that work with T-Satellite right now: Apple iPhone 13 iPhone 14 iPhone 15 iPhone 16 (all models) Google Motorola moto edge 2025 moto g 5G 2025 moto g 2024 moto g power 5G 2025 moto razr 2024 moto razr+ 2024 moto razr 2025 moto razr+ 2025 moto razr ultra 2025 Samsung

Verizon accused of taking punitive actions against customers who file complaints against it
Verizon can be ruthless when it comes to dealing with customers who don't play nice with it. Things can get worse if those customers involve a government entity. It's not unheard of for customers who have grievances with a company to reach out to a government agency to get their issues resolved. While some, like T-Mobile, try to discourage attempts to band against it, Verizon apparently harbors a personal vendetta against those who lodge complaints against it with an external party. A customer has informed us that Verizon maintains a secret internal blacklist of customers who file complaints against it. The said customer was also placed on one such blacklist after they contacted the Office of the Attorney General for the District of Columbia's Consumer Mediation Program regarding a problem which then demanded an explanation from Verizon . An email from Verizon email asking the customer be blacklisted that was sent after OAG was involved. Verizon allegedly retaliated by blacklisting the customer. Being blacklisted isn't just about no longer being able to buy services from Verizon . The user claims that the company tried to wreak havoc on their credit report by re-aging a debt that was already resolved. This means that the company intentionally made the debt newer than it already was. As a result, it became impossible for them to get approval for financial products and loans. The user says that Verizon has kept the existence of the blacklist a secret, which serves to reprimand customers who raise their voices against customer shared evidence, including an email with instructions to blacklist them, to back up their claim. Verizon defended its actions in its response to OAG's email by saying that it had already reported the account to collections when it was paid in full. The company said it followed the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) guidelines, which frown upon pay-for-delete. Pay-for-delete requests involve asking a creditor to remove a negative entry from the credit report in exchange for company refuses to budge from its position and has even asked relevant agencies to consider this when addressing any future complaints from the user. While Verizon might want to be FRCA-compliant by not engaging in pay-for-delete agreements, it's worth mentioning that the FRCA doesn't actually prohibit such agreements. Also, the amount due wasn't substantial. There also seems to be some confusion about a router. The bottom line is that, on the surface, it looks like Verizon could have been more forbearing instead of taking punitive actions against the customers, which had the potential to impact their lives for years to come. Most of all, covertly maintaining a blacklist reflects poorly on Verizon . It looks like the company doesn't take kindly to the escalation of complaints to government agencies. We have reached out to Verizon for comment and will update the article if we hear back.

The most popular free app in the App Store is the victim of a data breach
I don't know about you, but I have found AI apps to be extremely useful when I need a question answered. Instead of using Siri, I have the Action Button on my iPhone 15 Pro Max set to open ChatGPT and I can get a question answered faster, and more in depth. Of course, iPhone units running Apple Intelligence do have the option of having a question they ask Siri turned over to the conversational AI platform when Siri cannot properly deliver an answer. The point here is that ChatGPT is so useful to iPhone users that it has been the top free app in the App Store. Notice the use of the past tense in that sentence. That's because a new app has wrestled away the top spot from ChatGPT. It must be another cutting-edge AI app designed to blow you away by delivering ridiculously fast and accurate responses to your questions, right? Bzzzz! Wrong. It's actually a dating app called Tea Dating Advice. Tea is the number one free app in the Apple App Store. | Image credit-PhoneArena Yes, it seems a little jarring when the top free app in the App Store goes from one that uses cutting-edge technology to an app that helps women improve their chances of having a successful first date. Unlike Tinder, Bumble, or Match, which helps women find a date, Tea uses its anonymous community of females to find out if there are any red flags that should make a woman put the kibosh on a possible first date. The developer of Tea says that the app provides a level of security that other dating apps don't offer. Because women share their dating experiences with the men they dated, the app can deliver a warning about an upcoming date. The app allows users to run background checks to see whether someone they want to date is on a sex offender list or has a criminal record. This makes Tea the perfect "companion app" for any of the dating apps a female might use. To make sure that only women are subscribed to the app, Tea asks for a selfie to verify a potential subscriber's gender. This is done to prevent subscribers from engaging in a catfish scheme where a person uses the pictures of another person and claims to be that individual. Keep in mind that much of the information that you look up in the Tea app can be found elsewhere. After all, there is a Facebook Group titled, "Are we dating the same guy?" And while the latter group also allows women to exchange notes about their dates, the Tea app has a major advantage over its rivals. Its website notes that it has over 1.6 million users, increasing the possibility that information about a potential date can be found on Tea. It also makes it more likely that there is information about a possible date from multiple women. More information about a person a woman might date means increasing the odds that she can make an informed decision. According to CBS News, this past Friday, Tea was the subject of a data breach as a digital storage system was accessed by attackers. The storage system contained information from before February 2024, including selfies. The hackers were able to view 60,000 images from posts, comments, and direct messages. In a statement, the company said, "Tea has engaged third-party cybersecurity experts and is working around the clock to secure its systems. At this time, there is no evidence to suggest that additional user data was affected." You can install the app from the App Store for iPhone users by tapping on this link. Android users can also get the "tea" on someone before going on a possible first date with that person. To download the app from the Google Play Store, tap on this link.
