T-Mobile adds month to month plan

Instead of paying up front for this plan, seemingly dubbed the Postpaid No Annual Contracts plan, you pay after the fact, as you would any other postpaid plan. Yes, this means a credit check is involved. So that’s definitely a downer. New customers are also still subject to an activation fee. The plans will resemble T-Mobile’s current lineup of postpaid plans, including FamilyTime and myFaves. Essentially, you’re getting T-Mobile service without committing to T-Mobile. And, as such, you’ll have to pay full price for your phone. Also, you won’t have access to HotSpot @Home. That’s a huge bummer. I haven’t been able to find out if this is a replacement for FlexPay, which acted similarly. You pick a T-Mobile rate plan, but you pay for it up front every month, as you would a contract plan. Having both of these around could be of advantage to T-Mo. Customers who pass a credit check could get a Postpaid No Annual Contracts plan, while customers who can’t go to FlexPay. ]]>

    i have a month to month and i never had to get a credit check. it’s the whole reason i chose month to month because i have horrible credit and knew i wouldn’t be able to get a contract with them. heh.
