Verify my T-Mobile 55+ plan eligibility

As the Billing Responsible Party, your age needs to be verified if you've already signed up for the Go5G 55+, Magenta 55+ or Essentials 55+ plan or if you are interested in adding it. Verify your age within 45 days from activation or plan change, otherwise, your plan will be switched to the standard plan version and risk a price increase of up to $20 per line.

Verify your eligibility by visiting a T-Mobile store with a valid government-issued ID, and we will walk you through the process.
