(It can also help you have more fun!) With so many new devices and apps, it can be tough to figure out what will work best for you. Here’s a primer on the latest that can help you run farther and faster. 1. Running apps are a great alternative to the gym  More people are turning to running apps to stay in shape, especially in the last few months. For runners both new and experienced, two of the most popular apps are <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.strava.com%2F&data=02%7C01%7Clucy.donahue%40t-mobile.com%7C3a8b79e02f4d48fc6b4f08d85ffbf632%7Cbe0f980bdd994b19bd7bbc71a09b026c%7C0%7C0%7C637364883050988280&sdata=XEMQ1EX%2BD%2BbasnV%2BLeFYRAVd%2FbMQ881j35Ucse%2BgA4Y%3D&reserved=0" target="_blank">Strava</a> and <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.nike.com%2Fnrc-app&data=02%7C01%7Clucy.donahue%40t-mobile.com%7C3a8b79e02f4d48fc6b4f08d85ffbf632%7Cbe0f980bdd994b19bd7bbc71a09b026c%7C0%7C0%7C637364883050988280&sdata=EH%2Ba2ixBmby3KvqPUvwRS9sTGNQ60%2BKuVUGKghJ9NEc%3D&reserved=0" target="_blank">Nike Run Club</a>, both of which can help you map and track routes, analyze progress and compete in challenges to push your limits. If you want to make things competitive, these apps also let you share your progress and achievements with your friends — or foes. 2. Virtual coaches can help you reach that new personal best If you can’t have a personal trainer running every step of the way with you, you can get a virtual one tailored to your specific needs and goals. For example, <a href="https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fvitrainer.com%2F&data=02%7C01%7Clucy.donahue%40t-mobile.com%7C3a8b79e02f4d48fc6b4f08d85ffbf632%7Cbe0f980bdd994b19bd7bbc71a09b026c%7C0%7C0%7C637364883050998278&sdata=NNsYHdRMMTE0xDh6yLtYR6%2B75ndNPdGHmD%2F7sVlgLSU%3D&reserved=0">Vi</a> artificial-intelligence trainer gives you real-time, personalized coaching. 3. Smartwatches are just as capable as your phone If you don’t want to carry a smartphone on your runs, luckily many of today’s smartwatches can free your pockets while providing you with the same activity-tracking benefits you get with a smartphone. Just last week, Apple announced two new Apple Watch models — Apple Watch Series 6, delivering breakthrough wellness and fitness capabilities, and Apple Watch SE, Apple’s combination of design, function, and value. T-Mobile has an Apple Watch offer to match: Pick up an Apple Watch (Series 3 or higher) and activate it on a new line on any eligible T-Mobile Apple Watch plan, and get $200 off a second Apple Watch with 24 monthly bill credits. Head <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/smart-watches/brand/apple" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">here</a> to check out all the available Apple Watch models at T-Mobile.

With Apple Watch, you’ll have all your health and fitness tools right on your wrist: pace tracker, calorie counter, heart rate monitor and GPS — not to mention all your music, podcasts and texting and calling needs. You’ll be off to the races in no time!

tmobile-blocks/featured-content

Stop for a moment to think about how far T-Mobile has come in our quest to bring real, meaningful competition to the wireless market and challenge the long-standing duopoly of AT&T and Verizon. Incredibly, last week the two behemoths, who dwarf T-Mobile in revenues and market cap, actually teamed up to petition the government to thwart T-Mobile’s competitive access to wireless spectrum – the radio waves that allow carriers to build competitive, high capacity networks to benefit consumers and businesses nationwide.

I suppose we shouldn’t be surprised. At T-Mobile, we’re hard at work delivering on the vision for the new T-Mobile since closing our merger with Sprint. Thanks to the Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC) approval, and its stance favoring increased competition in this marketplace to benefit consumers, we are building a high capacity network to help the U.S. lead the world in 5G, and bring real competition to U.S. wireless for the first time. This competition will benefit every consumer and business in this country. To do it, we’re leveraging the unique combination of complementary spectrum and assets to deliver world leading 5G for all Americans.

The result? As promised, AT&T and Verizon are facing real competition from a company that is committed to shaking up the status quo and bringing true choice to consumers. Wireless customers will no longer have to make that trade-off between a great value and a great network – now, with new T-Mobile, they can have the best value in this industry AND be with the company that will lead in the 5G era. We can see that scares the heck out of these two huge, entrenched industry incumbents. The duopolists are scrambling to block this new competition any way they can.

A tell-tale sign that AT&T and Verizon are already hearing the footsteps of the Un-carrier is that both of these giants have turned to the FCC seeking help to thwart this added competition. Suddenly in the unfamiliar position of not having a dominant stranglehold on the wireless market, and preferring not to meet the competitive challenge in the marketplace, AT&T and Verizon are urging the FCC to slow T-Mobile down and choke off our ability to compete fairly for added radio spectrum.

Why is this important to all Americans? Because spectrum is needed to deliver faster, better and more affordable wireless broadband services for American consumers and businesses nationwide. We are now witnessing the spectacle of two of the biggest companies in the world asking the FCC to constrict T-Mobile’s ability to compete on a level playing field for important spectrum, under a regulatory tool known as the “spectrum screen.”

tmobile-blocks/pull-quote-image

While these industry incumbents claim this is to protect competition from one company having too much spectrum, this rings hollow as evidenced by their immediate efforts to block T-Mobile from leasing unused 600 MHz spectrum from a company called Columbia Capital. This is spectrum that Columbia Capital is not using, and is now being deployed by T-Mobile for the benefit of American consumers, including in rural areas where this low band spectrum is particularly impactful. In the category of “you can’t make this stuff up” – AT&T had won at auction the spectrum that Columbia Capital is now leasing to T-Mobile and – guess what – AT&T decided it didn’t want it and sold it to Columbia. Verizon, the ringleader in opposing this lease, never bothered to even show up and bid for any 600 MHz spectrum. In short, we have AT&T and Verizon seeking to block T-Mobile from using spectrum that AT&T decided to jettison, and Verizon had no interest in pursuing. Now both companies are seeking to block T-Mobile from putting this spectrum to use for the benefit of American consumers. Are AT&T and Verizon really interested in fostering competition? Of course not. This is about protecting their market dominance.

The main event, however, is the upcoming C-band spectrum auction. The stakes are extremely high. Anticipated to raise many billions of dollars for American taxpayers, the C-band is the largest pool of new spectrum expected any time in the near future. The results of the auction will shape market competition and network advancement in the U.S. for years to come. That’s why a fair, competitive process that allows all players to compete for the spectrum is essential for consumers. Without it, taxpayers will not only lose the benefit of the lost auction proceeds, but will also lose the benefit of ensuring that spectrum is put to use, to drive competition, by those most motivated to do so.

Citing the “spectrum screen”, AT&T and Verizon would like to keep T-Mobile out of the bidding or at least put a damper on our ability to aggressively bid against them in this important auction, so that they can run the table unchecked. The “spectrum screen” was put in place years ago with good intention and broad support including from T-Mobile – to help ensure competition in the market when spectrum supply was limited – but is now being cited by AT&T and Verizon for reasons entirely opposite to this intention. And importantly, the “spectrum screen” pre-dates, and therefore ignores, certain 5G spectrum where Verizon already dominates. In fact, Verizon holds massive spectrum (far more than T-Mobile’s entire portfolio of low, mid-, and high-band spectrum) in the “millimeter wave” bands, which are the cornerstone of their 5G strategy and which are not subject to the “spectrum screen”.

In other words, Verizon, as the holder of the most spectrum in the U.S. marketplace by far, which they gained through their own financial dominance, has the anti-competitive instincts and sheer audacity to complain that a much smaller T-Mobile has too much. After holding massive spectrum advantages over T-Mobile and others for decades, Verizon and AT&T just can’t stand the idea of anyone else being ahead of them or having a fair shot in an auction where they plan to use their financial might to do what they have always done – dominate.

The spectrum screen also does not take into account how additional spectrum can enable wireless carriers such as T-Mobile to utilize high capacity wireless networks, backed by spectrum, to provide genuine competition to the incumbent in-home broadband providers (such as AT&T, Verizon and Big Cable) thereby providing sorely needed in-home broadband alternatives particularly in rural America. This is exactly what T-Mobile is busily building its network and using its spectrum to provide.

While our country faces the challenges of an unprecedented pandemic, the high-capacity wireless services we are deploying and delivering are even more critical for connecting Americans to their families, workers to their jobs, students to their schools and the vulnerable to their health care providers. The lessons of living with the pandemic are that now, more than ever, we need transformative high-speed broadband – “5G for all” and not just for the few. And, as some have observed, the increased and changing use patterns are here to stay well beyond the pandemic. T-Mobile has a long history of putting spectrum to immediate use to deliver these kinds of benefits. AT&T and Verizon both have a history of warehousing spectrum, leaving it unused, simply to deny their competitors (and by extension, consumers) access to it.

The FCC has done an incredible job of making sure that fresh spectrum is there to provide new and improved services, and all consumers stand to benefit from the FCC’s prescient efforts. As a result of this FCC’s pro-competitive spectrum policies, the U.S. has the potential to lead the world in competitive 5G services. Now is not the time to turn away from that success formula. T-Mobile is committed to using any spectrum we gain to build, deploy and provide the high-capacity network services that America needs. We only need to have the door open for us to do so, on a fair and level competitive playing field, and we encourage the FCC to maintain its pro-competitive stance that would allow us to compete for and deploy radio spectrum to benefit consumers.

American consumers deserve the fair competition that will result in American broadband leadership, and greater access for all.

Just like America wouldn’t be the same without its Hispanic community, T-Mobile wouldn’t be the Un-carrier without its Hispanic employees and customers. Or in other words, no hay uno without the other.

During this year’s Hispanic Heritage Month, which takes place Sept. 15-Oct. 15, T-Mobile is celebrating and honoring the enduring influence of the Hispanic community, past, present and future. With the theme of Orgullosos de Nuestro Pasado. Enfrentando el Presente. Impactando el Futuro. (Proud of our Past. Facing the Present. Impacting the Future.), the Un-carrier will celebrate in a big way with customers and employees alike during HHM through community giving, events and more!

Comunidad/Community

To honor the past and embrace the future, T-Mobile is giving back to two organizations that serve unique needs within the Hispanic and Latino communities near its Bellevue, Wash. headquarters. As part of T-Mobile’s Community Spotlight program with the Seattle Mariners, the company donated $10,000 to the Latino Community Fund initiatives, which cultivates new Hispanic leaders and supports cultural and nonprofit organizations to create a vibrant community in Washington state through civic engagement, healthy families, arts and culture. It is also doubling employee donations to El Centro de la Raza made during the month. El Centro de la Raza drives racial and economic equity efforts focused on Hispanic and minority communities in Seattle.

In another nod toward embracing the future, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/metrobytmobile/">Metro by T-Mobile</a> and <a href="https://www.facebook.com/MetroByTMobileLatino/">Metro by T-Mobile Latino</a> are giving a boost to Hispanic/Latino students through a social media giveaway aimed at helping out with school supplies and tuition. Hispanic and Latino students who share their thoughts on what their Hispanic/Latino identity means to them, how they celebrate their culture and how they’ll use the funds for school will have a chance to be chosen for one of 30 $1,000 awards!

T-Mobile is the most diverse major wireless company in the nation and a recognized Best Employer for Diversity and Latinos, so it’s no surprise that Team Magenta is all in during HHM. The Un-carrier’s 55 Diversity, Equity and Inclusion chapters across the country will give their employee members an opportunity to learn and share throughout the month with virtual panel discussions, cultural exchanges and guest speakers that will explore the topics of culture, history, representation and equity. Employees can connect with each other and reflect on their Hispanic heritage and culture, while the T-Mobile DE&I Learning podcast and employee spotlight videos produced by T Studios will circulate on brand social handles, web, YouTube and T-Nation. Employees can use the hashtag #SeguimosUnidos on social throughout the month.

Conexiones/Connections

T-Mobile is known for its exceptional customer service and support of Spanish speakers, but the Un-carrier also has a proud history of connecting customers with voices from the community that are meaningful to them. This HHM, the Un-carrier is proud to expand its partnership this year with Latino influencer and author LeJuan James. LeJuan is a bilingual writer, comedian and filmmaker whose first advertisement with the Un-carrier premiered in August 2020 at the Premios Juventud award show. Now he — and his mamá, too — are excited to share all the new and exciting offers and products that T-Mobile has in store. In the coming months, new content with LeJuan will continue to be shared on T-Mobile and T-Mobile Latino social media and air on Spanish-language channels.

Over the month T-Mobile will also post a content series on its newsroom featuring Hispanic employees and community leaders reflecting on the theme of past, present and future. Featured employees will share their experiences observing HHM, working at T-Mobile and supporting the company’s customers. Featured community leaders will speak to their partnerships with T-Mobile and the commitments the Un-carrier has made to advance diversity, equity and inclusion in the Hispanic community and beyond, including the multimillion-dollar <a href="https://nul.org/news/civil-rights-groups-sign-groundbreaking-diversity-agreement-t-mobile-us">memorandum of understanding</a> that the company signed with 6 civil rights organizations as part of its merger with Sprint.

Check out <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/careers/culture-and-benefits/diversity">T-Mobile’s diversity, equity and inclusion website</a> to learn more about how DE&I are part of the Un-carrier DNA during Hispanic Heritage Month and beyond!

BELLEVUE, Wash. — September 2, 2020 — 5G you can find 0.4% of the time is like a racecar that can’t leave your driveway. T-Mobile’s 5G is the perfect blend of coverage and speed. After launching nationwide 5G last year, T-Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS) today announced that supercharged mid-band 5G is live for millions more people in parts of 81 new cities and towns across the country, <a>delivering peak download speeds of up to 1 Gbps and average speeds of around 300 Mbps … that’s 7.5x faster today’s average LTE speeds. </a>With today’s announcement, this supercharged 5G experience is live in nearly 90 cities and towns, and the Un-carrier plans to continue lighting up this optimal 5G spectrum at an aggressive pace, reaching thousands more by end of year. And that isn’t just big cities, rural and suburban communities across the country will get to enjoy the benefits of this faster 5G experience too.

“T-Mobile has the competition in the rear-view mirror on 5G, and they’re only getting farther behind. While the other guys are playing catch-up, we’ve had nationwide 5G since last year, and we’re now adding faster speeds across the country with mid-band 5G,” said Neville Ray, President of Technology at T-Mobile. “This is our 5G strategy in action. Mid-band is the 5G spectrum, and T-Mobile has more of it than anyone. We have nearly twice as much low and mid-band spectrum as AT&T and nearly triple that of Verizon. And that means T-Mobile is the only one capable of making the world’s best 5G network a reality.”

T-Mobile has the first and largest nationwide 5G network, covering over 250 million people across 1.3 million square miles — that’s bigger than AT&T and Verizon’s 5G networks combined. Now, with its supply of ideal mid-band 5G spectrum (2.5 GHz), the Un-carrier is building on that nationwide 5G foundation, increasing capacity and boosting speeds for millions of customers. In many places, mid-band 5G average download speeds are already around 300 Mbps with peak speeds approaching 1 Gbps. T-Mobile’s 2.5 GHz 5G delivers blazing fast speeds and expansive coverage with signals that go through walls, windows and trees, unlike 5G networks limited by mmWave spectrum. Each mid-band 2.5 GHz 5G site can cover tens of thousands of times the area that one mmWave site can cover, and can also penetrate obstructions (like walls).

In April following its merger with Sprint, T-Mobile quickly lit up mid-band 5G in Philadelphia and New York City, with Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Los Angeles and Washington D.C. launching soon after. The Un-carrier is continuing to move at lightning speed to bring the companies’ networks together and deliver faster 5G to people all across the U.S. Engineering teams are on track to light up 1,000 sites per month with 2.5 GHz 5G, and by the end of the year, customers will find mid-band 5G in thousands of cities and towns across the country. And this is only the beginning. T-Mobile is continuing to commit more mid-band spectrum to these 5G sites, which means 2.5 GHz speeds and capacity will continue to improve for customers over the coming months and years.

What’s the news: Now that Sprint is part of T-Mobile, legacy Sprint customers can get ALL the benefits of T-Mobile MONEY: a no-fee, mobile-first, checking account where customers enrolled in perks can earn an industry-leading APY of 4.00% and Got Your Back overdraft protection. Plus, account holders can get paid up to two days early and make cash deposits.

Why it matters:  Making money work harder for Americans has never been more important. 57% of people in the U.S. say they’ve been impacted financially by the coronavirus pandemic1. Some of the most popular bank accounts have dropped interest rates to all-time lows. With T-Mobile MONEY, customers can get up to 50 times higher interest rates than other checking accounts and no costly bank fees.

Who it’s for:  Anyone who’s tired of handing over their hard-earned cash to their bank.

BELLEVUE, Wash. — Aug. 24, 2020 — Joining the magenta fam now means even more green in your pockets.T-Mobile MONEY is the Un-carrier’s no-fee, interest-earning, mobile-first checking account. And starting today,legacy Sprint customers can sign up to score ALL the T-Mobile MONEY benefits, including an industry-leading 4.00% Annual Percentage Yield2 (APY) on balances up to $3,000 — that’s 50 times3 higher than the average U.S. checking account interest rate — and 1.00% APY thereafter.  Plus, the Un-carrier is making T-Mobile MONEY even better with cash deposits4 and the ability to get paid up to two days early5 with direct deposit. Since the start of the coronavirus pandemic, many popular savings interest rates have dropped to all-time lows6 yet holding on to your money has never been more critical. T-Mobile MONEY to the rescue.

“Today, more than ever, it’s absolutely critical that people keep more of their hard-earned money in their pockets. T-Mobile MONEY customers get an industry-leading return on their money with zero fees, so they keep more and grow more, the way it should be,” said Mike Sievert, CEO of T-Mobile. “This is just one more way we’re welcoming legacy Sprint customers into the T-Mobile family, and I’m not even close to finished yet.”

During COVID with over 16 million Americans unemployed7 and even more concerned about not being able to pay bills, people are looking for ways to save more and earn more. But big banks are built on fees and next-to-nothing interest rates. Americans paid $34.6 billion8 in overdraft fees alone in 2019. And Bank of America’s Advantage Checking, Chase Checking and Wells Fargo’s Portfolio Checking only offer 0.01% APY9. (This makes Verizon’s microscopic 5G coverage, which customers can connect to just 0.4% of the time, seem big by comparison.)

With T-Mobile MONEY, there are no monthly, overdraft, account or transfer fees plus access to over 55,000 in-network <a href="https://www.t-mobilemoney.com/en/features/no-fee-ATMs.html">Allpoint® ATMs worldwide</a> with no fees10. This is all in addition to offering <a href="https://www.t-mobilemoney.com/en/perks/interest.html">perks</a> for T-Mobile AND Sprint postpaid customers with eligible service, who can earn 4.00% APY on balances up to $3,000 and 1.00% APY on every dollar over $3,000 when they register with their T-Mobile ID and deposit at least $200 each month. Everyone else, including Verizon and AT&T customers, scores 1.00% APY on all balances, still 12 time3 more than the average bank. And, there’s no minimum balance requirement.

And, because life happens, T-Mobile and legacy Sprint postpaid customers can register for <a href="https://www.t-mobilemoney.com/en/perks/got-your-back-overdraft.html">Got Your Back</a> overdraft protection11.  These customers can go in the red, up to $50, without penalty — just bring the account back to a positive balance within 30 days to use the service again. This prevents critical transactions up to $50 total from being declined, and with no overdraft fees (big banks penalize customers charging about $30 to $35 per transaction7), T-Mobile MONEY customers have more peace of mind during these challenging times.

Recently-added account features include the ability to make cash deposits at <a href="https://www.t-mobilemoney.com/en/features/deposit-cash-locations.html">participating merchants</a> -- it’s as simple as telling the clerk to add cash to a T-Mobile MONEY debit card. And, when someone sets up direct deposit into their T-Mobile MONEY account, their paycheck can be available up to two days before a traditional bank would give access to their money5.

2 How APY works and what it means for you: As a T-Mobile MONEY customer you earn 4.00% annual percentage yield (APY) on balances up to and including $3,000 in your checking account per month when: 1) you are enrolled in a qualifying T-Mobile postpaid wireless plan; 2) you have registered for perks with your T-Mobile ID; and 3) at least $200 in qualifying deposits have posted to your Checking Account before the last business day of the month. Deposits posting on or after the last business day of the month count toward the next month’s qualifying deposits. Promotional deposits are not eligible toward the $200 in deposits. If you meet this deposit requirement in a given month we will pay you this benefit in the subsequent month as an added value provided all other requirements are met. This added value is subject to change. Balances above $3,000 in the Checking Account earn 1.00% APY. The APY for this tier will range from 4.00% to 2.79% depending on the balance in the account (calculation based on a $5,000 average daily balance). Customers who do not qualify for the 4.00% APY will earn 1.00% APY on all Checking Account balances for any month(s) in which they do not meet the requirements listed above. APYs are accurate as of 8/24/2020, but may change at any time at our discretion. Fees may reduce earnings.

What’s the news: T-Mobile snags a record-breaking high score (AGAIN) from J.D. Power for Full-Service Wireless Customer Care. That’s the sixth time in a row and the TWENTIETH time*overall that the Un-carrier beats the Carriers in their segment. And, Metro by T-Mobile took top honors for the second time in a row among Non-Contract Full-Service Providers. Why it matters:  As COVID-19 and economic uncertainty take hold, consumers often find longer hold times than usual when calling customer service. Not at T-Mobile. The Un-carrier quickly moved more than 12,000 care reps from 17 domestic call centers, setting them up to serve customers from the safety of their homes —no long wait times and no bouncing around. Who it’s for:  Every wireless customer who wants to reach a helpful team when they’ve got questions.

BELLEVUE, Wash. — July 30, 2020 — This is what customer love looks like — especially when facing a global pandemic. Today, J.D. Power announced that T-Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS) has received a record-breaking high score (for the 3rd time in a row!) in the J.D. Power 2020 U.S. Wireless Customer Care Full-Service Performance Study — Volume 2. That’s TWENTY times now that T-Mobile has ranked highest among full-service providers, and the sixth win in a row. Metro by T-Mobile also nabbed back-to-back spots in the J.D. Power 2020 U.S. Wireless Customer Care Non-Contract Performance Study — Volume 1 and 2 among Non-Contract Full-Service Wireless Providers.

And in the face of a global pandemic, never has taking home top honors for Care been more important. To ensure customers stayed connected at this critical time, AND to keep its Team of Experts safe and socially distant, T-Mobile acted swiftly, relocating nearly its entire <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/news/un-carrier/tex-covid-response-callie-field-blog">customer care workforce</a> to their homes. Between March 11 and March 31, T-Mobile moved more than 12,000 Care experts — and over 60,000 pieces of equipment — out of 17 call centers across the U.S. so they could work from home. As a result of this swift action, call wait times are still under 90 seconds, just as they were pre-pandemic. Employees stayed safe and customers stayed connected — as demonstrated by the J.D. Power win.

“This win is especially important to us now, as we face this global pandemic. It’s more critical than ever for our customers to get the service they deserve, and taking home top honors again is a huge win — for our hard-working teams, and for our customers who deserve personalized, quick, excellent service,” said Callie Field, EVP of Customer Care at T-Mobile. “I’m so incredibly proud of our Care experts for being nimble, for their dedication to customers in the face of such change and uncertainty. This win says it loud and clear for customers: we are with you.”

The Un-carrier earned top honors more times than any other wireless provider in the history of the study. T-Mobile scored an 852 in the Study — that’s 36 points higher than the industry average. T-Mobile placed highest in both Assisted Care and Unassisted Care, which means customers love that they can connect on their terms, whether it’s by text, phone, online, or scheduling a call-back. And that’s especially important now, as people stay closer to home. Keeping people and businesses connected at this unprecedented time is paramount at T-Mobile and so is the ability to keep hardworking Care teams connected to customers.

In 2018, T-Mobile launched Team of Experts to turn traditional customer care on its head and fix an old, broken customer care model that has frustrated Americans for decades. When you call or message T-Mobile, you get a tight-knit team dedicated to you and others in your city. No getting bounced around from department to department. With T-Mobile’s Team of Experts, customers reach a helpful human every time they reach out.

Always looking out for customers, T-Mobile also recently launched <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/scamshield">Scam Shield</a> — a massive set of free solutions to protect customers from robocalls and scams — because who isn’t fed UP with scams and robocalls and scammers have been preying on consumers’ health and financial fears during the coronavirus pandemic.

Divestiture Marks a Major Commitment Fulfilled by T-Mobile as Part of Merger with Sprint

Bellevue, Washington — July 1, 2020 — T-Mobile US Inc. (NASDAQ: TMUS) announced today that as the supercharged Un-carrier continues its post-merger close efforts to build America’s best 5G network and bring the value of new T-Mobile to consumers across the United States, it has completed its previously announced divestiture of Sprint’s prepaid wireless business to DISH Network Corporation (NASDAQ: DISH). The divestiture fulfills a commitment that T-Mobile and Sprint made to the Department of Justice and to the Federal Communications Commission as part of their merger process.

“We just checked an important milestone. In closing our deal with DISH to divest Sprint’s prepaid brand, T-Mobile followed through on fulfilling one of the most significant commitments we made as part of this merger process. We are excited to keep making big steps forward and, as promised, continue to work toward delivering the transformative nationwide 5G network that is only possible with the New T-Mobile’s combined capacity AND breadth to consumers across the U.S.,” said CEO Mike Sievert.

The divestiture of Sprint’s prepaid business represents more than 9.3 million customers. T-Mobile will receive approximately $1.4B for Sprint’s prepaid business subject to a customary post-closing working capital adjustment. Additionally, the divested prepaid customers and new DISH wireless customers will have full access to the new T-Mobile network in a phased approach through a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) arrangement, as well as through an infrastructure mobile network operator (MNO) arrangement enabling roaming in certain areas until DISH’s 5G network is built out. In connection with the closing of the DISH transaction, T-Mobile, Sprint and DISH entered into certain other ancillary agreements, including a spectrum purchase agreement.

T-Mobile U.S. Inc. (NASDAQ: TMUS) is America’s supercharged Un-carrier, delivering an advanced 4G LTE and transformative nationwide 5G network that will offer reliable connectivity for all. T-Mobile’s customers benefit from its unmatched combination of value and quality, unwavering obsession with offering them the best possible service experience and undisputable drive for disruption that creates competition and innovation in wireless and beyond.

A year ago we announced we were abolishing overages at T-Mobile. 
 We put a stop to a predatory industry practice and we challenged AT&T, Verizon and Sprint to follow our lead. 
 CEO John Legere even created a petition at <a href="http://www.change.org/p/wireless-carriers-abolishoverages-att-verizonwireless-and-sprint">change.org/abolishoverages </a>so consumers could easily speak out and help drive the carriers to change their ways. 
 To date, nearly 200,000 consumers across the US have signed the petition, and it is one of the most popular on change.org out of literally thousands and thousands of petitions on the site. 
 And you know what the carriers did to change? 
 Absolutely nothing. 
 They continue to punish their customers with an estimated $1.5 billion in overage fees last year!
 So it’s time to take our message to the next level and let these guys know that we won’t stop!
 Help John Legere and T-Mobile send them a message they won’t miss – one that you can help choose!
 Watch this VLOG from John to hear more, and see how you can take action to help change this industry!

The wait is over. Three of the season’s hottest new phones—the HTC One M9 and the Samsung Galaxy S®6; and Galaxy S®6 Edge —are available in T-Mobile stores nationwide and online at <a href="http://www.t-mobile.com/">T-Mobile.com.</a>
 And we don’t use the word “hot” lightly… Since T-Mobile began shipping—and selling—the Galaxy S 6 and Galaxy S 6 edge on March 27, customer response has been through the roof. In just the first 10 days, sales of the new Galaxy S 6 series at T-Mobile are already nearly double those of the Galaxy S 5 – previously the most popular Galaxy phone ever at T-Mobile. Likewise, in the first 10 days of HTC One M9 sales, the flagship phone has already surpassed sales of the HTC One M8 during the same time period. 
 We know the other guys like to hide their pricing in a costly service plan or lease so we want to make it clear: the HTC One M9, Galaxy S 6 and Galaxy S 6 edge are all available on a Simple Choice plan for $0 down, here at T-Mobile on the nation’s fastest 4G LTE network. 
 And then just pay $27.08 a month for 24 months for HTC One M9,
 $28.33 a month for 24 months for Samsung Galaxy S 6 (32 GB) or
 $32.49 a month for 24 months for Galaxy S 6 edge (32 GB)

We’ll pay off your early termination fees AND your phone payments—up to $650—when you switch to T-Mobile and trade in your old phone to get benefits found only at the Un-carrier including:

<li>International data and texting in 120+ countries & destinations at no additional charge</li>
</ul>
 As an added bonus, T-Mobile customers who order the Galaxy S 6 and Galaxy S 6 edge before April 12 can also receive a one-year Netflix subscription – a more than $100 value. Qualifying customers visit <a href="http://samsungpromotions.com/">SamsungPromotions.com</a> to get a Netflix promo code redeemable at <a href="http://netflix.com/SpecialOffers">Netflix.com/SpecialOffers</a> for a $107.88 credit ($8.99 per month for 12 months) on their new or existing Netflix account.

I think it’s crystal clear by now that it deeply pisses me off how old-school wireless carriers work so hard at limiting what you can do with your smartphone. That’s the antithesis of what wireless is supposed to be, and the Un-carrier has taken a wrecking ball to those barriers over the last two years. Today, we’re at it again, putting an end to one of the wireless industry’s dirtiest little secrets.

For years, the old guard carriers have had the audacity to shill their so-called “family” plans when, in fact, those plans aren’t even available to the entire family. That’s right. Last year, the carriers spent BILLIONS advertising “family” plans that completely ignore 164 million members of 74 million U.S. households – roughly 3 in 5.
 This is a huge problem. The scope of this carrier scam is shocking. But, today, we’re setting it right. Today, we’re launching <a href="http://www.t-mobile.com/pets-unleashed">Pets Un-leashed</a> and expanding our family plans to include your entire family. 
 While AT&T and Verizon ignore your pets and treat them like they aren’t part of your family, we love your pets at T-Mobile. And, we know that your 24/7 connection to that furry friend is quite possibly even more important than your connection to other humans. So why not make that pet connection stronger and faster with our blazing-fast 4G LTE network? Exactly. 
 For just $5 a month, you can add your cat, dog, ferret, turtle or, heck, your alpaca to your T-Mobile family plan, and they’ll enjoy all our Un-carrier™ benefits and some awesome new apps like Fetch Freedom, FitPet and SnapCat. Take a look.

 U.S. pet owners spend about $50 billion a year on their pets – and approximately zero of those pets are connected. Talk about an under-served population! All those industry analysts who thought the U.S. wireless market was saturated better get ready for us to prove them wrong again. We just found a small continent of new customers that the carriers continue to ignore and treat like second class citizens – well, not the Un-carrier.
 This is what we do. We find pain points, and we fix them. And not just for humans anymore. Your pets are already part of your family. They should be part of your family plan, too.
