T-Mobile switches users to pricier plans and tells them it’s not a price hike::T-Mobile: “We are not raising the price… we are moving you to a newer plan.”

    To be honest, I’m surprised they kept the ‘uncarrier’ image for so long. This was bound to happen, especially after the sprint merger was approved. I really feel T-Mobile pushed the big two to make changes to compete and now all I fear all three will go back to the old ways.

      What makes you so cynical as to assume with less competition oligopolies have more power? /s

      Just like Microsoft’s announcement of the closure of the Activision deal trumpeting “more choice” for gamers. Literally just took away a competitor! Kroger’s purchase of Albertsons when we’ve all been dying in the US from grocery price gouging for the last 4 years.

      Fuck the legislators, SEC and the courts for letting companies continuously destroy competition while mostly giving up things they wanted to anyway.
