Bellevue, Wash. — Jul. 10, 2012

The new school year is right around the corner and T-Mobile® is making it more affordable for families to stay in touch with the latest 4G smartphones and services. Starting July 11, T-Mobile will offer a variety of options for new and existing customers to help with back-to-school planning and keep budgets manageable.

“As we approach this busy season for families, we know it’s important for them to easily and affordably stay connected, which is why we’re making it simple to step up to 4G on our most popular Samsung Galaxy devices,” said Andrew Sherrard, senior vice president of marketing, T-Mobile USA. “Whether mom is looking for a family plan to help keep track of everyone, or a new high school graduate wants the latest smartphone but under a responsible budget, we’re offering our customers a wide range of affordable options as well as some nice perks with these new promotions.”

 

One for You, One for Them
From Wednesday, July 11, through Tuesday, September 4, T-Mobile’s Buy-One-Get-One (BOGO) Samsung Galaxy 4G promotion offers customers who purchase any Samsung Galaxy 4G device a second select Samsung Galaxy 4G smartphone for free.

Keeping Families in Touch for Less

Staying connected is important as parents and kids prepare to start school and get back to managing busy schedules, but sometimes costs associated with adding lines can deter parents from getting a phone for everyone. T-Mobile wants to change that by making it easy and affordable for families to ensure everyone has the latest and greatest device and services. When signing up for a new two-year contract on T-Mobile’s Family Classic Unlimited Plan, new and existing customers can save by adding additional voice lines for only $5 a month until 20143.
