AUTO PAY

I kept T-Mobile and my discount.  This is how I did it.  T-Mobile offers a T-Mobile Money App.  It is basically a bank account that pays 4% interest that has the T-Mobile brand but is with another bank.  You sign up for the bank account like you would any other online bank.  After a few days, you’ll receive a debit ATM card from T-Mobile along with some initial checks (3 of them).  At that point you log in to your new T-Mobile bank account and just do a remote deposit of $xxx.xx where you take a picture of the check you’re depositing.  (I did about a $1,000)  to cover a years worth of auto pay.  T-Mobile only has the bank numbers for your NEW T-Mobile account.  Nothing is connected to your regular banking.  You also have the option of going to one of T-Mobile local places and do a cash deposit into the new account.   Then you setup auto pay from that T-Mobile bank account and you get your discount back.  I just did it and it worked for me.  Nothing is tied to my other bank accounts.   PS:  There are other options to fund the new account, like linking your other bank accounts (DON’T DO IT).   Using the remote check deposit is the safest.    Happy Savings!
