Help with T-mobile plans?
I've been thinkin about getting a family plan, 1000 minutes for 69.99, its going to be my dad and me, does anyone has this plan? if you do please help
1. Is it really a good service? is it a good price?
2.Does it come with text messages? or do they charge?
3.Is there any other better plan than that (for my dad and me, 2 people)?
4.about the Samsung t619, is it a good phone?
5.does it cost if I call from one t-mobile to another one or message (if we are together in the family plan)?
6.does it cost if I call or message from one t-mobile to any other t-mobile?
7.is there a way to consult how many minutes have I used, or how many I have left?

To reply for the customer would be:

1) Tmobile has been ranked #1 by Jd Powers for last 2 yrs for the service and rate . You will get the most amount of minutes with tmobile for price.
2) It doesnt come with any text , you need to add it to the plan. $4.99 for 400 text/pic/video msg per line and more
3) For 1000 minutes there is no other plans for that price. Expect to pay more if you look into different service providers.
4) Samsung T619, is a very nice phone. Look at our Market Place and you will find some good prices for some others phones.
5) With this perticular family plan you will get unlimited tmobile to tmobil. But text msg is not free.
6) Read number 5
7) yes, you can switch for first 12 month without extending you agreement. I suggest you get this plan the and the end of the month use #646# to find out how many minuted that you used and then adjust the plan according ly.

Tip: If you not looking for a high end phones for your dad ( unlike you) then try getting a FREE Phones with cash back. It will help you to pay the activations fees. Have fun
