Uncarrier 5.0 leaked?

[mogelijk]

Phone Arena is claiming Uncarrier 5.0 is to include taxes in postpaid rate plans.

This would be nice, if true, and seems like it would save most customers 10-20%.

If true, this would definitely be a good move!

Lol no way that would mean that I would be paying my vaunted amount.. But I might lose my grandfathered unlimited for 70 tho

That 7 day trial is a golden move. People that are on the fence can try and it. Lets say 10k people give it a 7 day free trial and if even 2,500 find that "hey this can actually work for me" then they can rack up on new subs. Obviously those numbers just came out of my head but i think it is a very good move for Tmo.

OP
Would you mind changing the name of this thread? If you go up to the first post and click edit and "go advanced" you can change the title. I would change it to "Uncarrier 5.0 Announced" instead of "leaked" since it's all official stuff now. Thx.

Legere stated, if I remember correctly, that they expect 1 million people to test drive T-Mobile this year. And I'd guess if a quarter of those that test drive sign up, that could mean 500,000 customers -- since I think many families would do a single test drive.

This seven day trial, seven night stand as he put it, is a good idea. This is just what I need to check out T-Mobile for myself. I might have to do this right before I go on vacation to see how the network works in different places. Just wish it wasn't an IPhone. But I understand why they used the IPhone.

John Legere just tweeted that almost 2,000 have already signed up for the Test Drive. It has been what, maybe two hours since the program was announced? That didn't take long....
