T-Mobile Offers Free First Month and Up to $200 Back on 5G Home Internet

3 articles · Updated · ZDNet · Jul 21

Summary

  • New T-Mobile 5G Home Internet customers can get their first month credited and receive a virtual prepaid Mastercard worth up to $200, with the highest rebate tied to the All-In plan.
  • $50-a-month plans with AutoPay qualify for the promotion across all three tiers: Rely and Amplified get $100 back, while All-In gets $200 and also includes Hulu and Paramount+ Essential.
  • Online or T-Life app sign-ups must use code MONTHONUS, and customers then have 30 days after activation to register for the rebate; the card arrives within 7 weeks and in-store activations do not qualify.
  • T-Mobile is also offering a 15-day test drive, but service quality depends on address and network conditions, while customers still face a $35 device connection charge and up to $370 if the gateway is not returned undamaged.
  • The limited-time push adds to T-Mobile's effort to win new home internet lines with lower upfront costs, especially for existing wireless customers who can cut another $15 a month by bundling a voice line.
