T-Mobile announced its latest Un-carrier move on Thursday, designed to reduce another customer pain point. This pain point is one that more and more U.S. consumers have been experiencing: switching carriers. Whether it is your monthly bill that is making you uneasy, poor wireless service ("Can you hear me?"), rotten customer service, or something else, there has been a lot of customer movement in the wireless industry.
T-Mobile announces "Switching Made Easy" allowing AT&T and Verizon subscribers to switch in 15 minutes
The new Un-carrier move is titled "Switching Made Easy and it allows you to switch to T-Mobile, using the T-Life app, in only 15 minutes. An AI-powered tool in beta that T-Mobile calls Easy Switch runs through certain data such as the plans, devices, and number of lines that AT&T or Verizon subscribers pay for each month and Easy Switch will show you the best T-Mobile plans for the customer including savings and benefits that the other carriers don't include.

Don't you hate switching carriers and then having to deal with getting your new phone right away, especially when you read in PhoneArena that a new model you really want is only a few weeks away? If you have a family, switching everyone's phone at once can be a hassle. So, T-Mobile will give those switching to the wireless provider as many as 90 days to choose their new phone. Remember, customers moving to T-Mobile receive a device upgrade.
Get your new phone delivered to you the same day it is ordered via the T-Life app
I don't know about you, but the days spent waiting for a new phone I've ordered seem to go by very s-l-o-w-l-y. But if you order a device using the T-Life app, you can get same-day delivery from DoorDash Drive. This option is launching at select T-Mobile stores in major cities throughout the U.S. and is expanding to more locations. No more will you have to keep watching the clock waiting for your new devices and accessories to arrive.
