So I'm seeing a lot of posts about the $30/mo 5GB 4G + Unlimited text + 100 min plan from T-Mobile. However, not ONE T-Mo rep in our local stores has ever heard of this. I've tried Walmart, Best Buy, and a T-Mo kiosk in our mall and they all looked at me like I'm crazy.
I'm assuming it's online only, as I see it on their website, but how exactly does it work? Do I buy a SIM (or is it a Micro SIM?) card from Best Buy or wherever, stick it in the phone (which I have to buy unlocked from Google, correct?), activate it online, and the option for the $30/mo shows up?
Aside from the fact that nobody seems to have a clear-cut guide to that, it sounds like a great deal. I'm starting to hate Virgin Mobile (really low phone selection, sub-par customer service, terrible sprint coverage except in major cities) and I've absolutely fallen in love with this phone. I'd love to switch but I'm nervous that this $30/mo thing is too good to be true.
