T-Mobile running FlexPay promotion

T-Mobile’s FlexPay program isn’t something I see discussed a whole ton in the prepaid industry. I mentioned it on the first Prepaid Podcast, back in April. Since then, though, we’ve heard a bit more. There were rumbles of possible upgrades to FlexPay. And we might be seeing the first of them. From Monday through July 31, new FlexPay activations will get a $25 coupon towards the purchase of a handset. The market, though, will be limited. You can only take advantage of this offer if you live in Chicago, Dallas, Detroit, Houston, and Philadelphia markets. Das it. The hope is that this is a test for a larger deployment. But there is nothing concrete on that yet. This will apparently be a guerilla campaign, with street teams handing out flyers and trucks with advertising. I never got the truck advertising thing. None have ever made me want to go out and buy something. But I digress. While $25 seems like a pittance, it’s still $25. ]]>
