    Does T-Mobile have cheap short-contract (<2yrs) or pay-to-go prepaid plans that would allow me to receive calls from other T-Mobile numbers for free?

    I have a plan where I pay $1/day of use and 10c incoming/outgoing to other networks, but I am on the look out for something like a plan where I pay much less than $1/day of use - even if I end up paying much more per call to other networks.

    Ideas/information?

    I am also open to ~$30 plans if they have some kind of myFave facility.

    TMobile has 4 new plans available for prepaid. The cheapest is $15 a month (30 straight days actually, not Jan, Feb, March, etc) for unlimited text and .10 cent per minute calling, also there is a $30 plan for 1500 minutes OR text messages plus 30 Mb of data, and unlimited talk/text plus 100 Mb data for $50 a month or unlimited talk/text plus 2 Gig for $70. All plans have free tmo -> tmo calling, so the $15 plan will give you your free tmo - tmo calling along with unlimited text to boot. You can also purchase a "day pass" for data, $1.49 for 24 hrs of unlimited access to the net.

    4 New plans on Tmo prepaid !
    $15 - Unlimited text + .10 cent / min calls
    $30 - 1500 min talk or text
    $50 - Unlimited talk/text + 100Mb data
    $70 - Unlimited talk/text + 2Gb data
    All plans have free tmo - tmo calling and $1.49 "day pass" for 24 hrs of unlimited data (can only be used on data plans if you run out of data)

    So it looks like the $15 unlimited text + .10 cent / min voice calls (with free tmo -> tmo) would suit you the best.

    @SpaceNut

    Happy New year! and Thank You - I did not know that these prepaid plans came with unlimited T-TMobile calling.

    Does the Prepaid arm of the business have a number I can call?

    Do the local TMobile centers hand out prepaid plans?

    I wanted to know if they would charge me the ridiculous $35 "activation fee" when I get a new prepaid plan?

    T-Mobile sucks!

    Their service coverage is horrible. I lose signal in my own house (3 miles from downtown), at the Air Force base where I worked, and in downtown of major cities. Amazing how Verizon and AT&T works in all those areas… T-Mobile had great coverage for the 3 years I used them in Europe and Eastern Europe, but it sucks here in the USA.

    Their customer service sucks. Their representatives are rude. They'll talk over you and never answer your questions. They’ll make excuses of cell tower maintenance for poor service coverage. All the time? Really?!

    They do NOT obey federal law.
    I asked for a discount when I started my USA cell phone service contract 2 years ago. I showed the store rep my military ID card, and specifically asked if they had a discount. They said “No”. Then I find out 2 years later that they WERE supposed to give me a 15% (or more) discount under the "Federal Telecommunication Act of 1996 - Discount to Federal Employees Past and Present". So, in 2 years, T-Mobile robbed me of at least $936!!!
    I field a complaint with the Better Business Bureau (BBB), and a T-Mobile rep then calls me to discuss it. (They refused to do so before when I called them…) They had the gall to say that I was supposed to ask the Air Force for the discount. Unbelievable! I said that my cell phone contract was with T-Mobile, NOT the Air Force. He said that it was my responsibility to ask for the discount. I said I did! Was he not listening?!
    I asked for his supervisor, but he refused to transfer me to anyone else. So I told him that if he wasn’t going to send a check or transfer me to his supervisor, that he was just wasting my time. He said again that he would not, so I hung up.

    So, if you have T-Mobile, and if you have any problems, don’t be silent! Complain! Use these forums, the Better Business Bureau, and the Federal Trade Commission. We can’t let T-Mobile get away with robbing us!

    If you are considering T-Mobile – DON’T!!! Stay the heck away from them!
