How Can I Get a Free T


1. Check at T-Mobile authorized retailers like The Mobile Solution, which operates kiosks inside of shopping malls, for free phone promotions. Ask the kiosk salesperson to waive the $35 activation fee as a term of purchasing the line of service is often effective. Ask to have the fee waived before you agree to purchase the new T-Mobile line of service. Most salespeople have the ability to waive the activation fee to entice you and close the sale. You can pay for any other charges at the time you purchase the phone with cash.
2. Visit t-mobile.com and click 'Store Locator' in the top right corner. Enter your address and ZIP code and the website will display the phone number and address of the store closest to you. Call the local T-Mobile corporate store to ask about current free phone sales. Negotiate with the T-Mobile sales representative to waive the activation fee as a condition of your purchase of the new line of service for the phone. Mail in a check or money order or pay with cash at the T-Mobile automated payment kiosk, which is located in every T-Mobile corporate store.
3. Buy a T-Mobile prepaid plan if you would rather not sign a two-year service contract with T-Mobile. Prepaid T-Mobile cellphones aren't free of charge, but you may be able to get one from a friend or family member who previously had a T-Mobile account. You may also purchase a used T-Mobile handset on eBay or Craigslist. T-Mobile's prepaid service plans are free to activate and you can reload the account any time by purchasing a reload card with cash. Find reload cards at most gas stations, convenience stores, department stores and check cashing facilities.
