$50 unlimited plan from T-Mobila USA indeed real

Yesterday, we informed you of the speculations around the new unlimited call plan that T-Mobile USA is to test in San Francisco. It seems that the rumors have been confirmed and the No. 4 carrier in the U.S. is really offering a $50 per month unlimited call plan for its long-time customers. Under this promotion, there is also an option for a $135 credit, in case a customer switches from a rival carrier to T-Mobile USA.

According to UBS analyst, John Hodulik, T-Mobile will launch the plan nationwide in weeks, aiming at putting some pressure onto the postpaid market. It is also believed that this comes as an answer to Boost Mobile’s all-in mobile plan also for $50 a month in January, as analysts see T-Mobile USA to be mostly vulnerable to losing customers against Boost.
