T-Mobile ONE Plus Now Starts at $15 Per Month Extra, Unlimited LTE Tethering Still $25 Per Month Extra

by

T-Mobile has announced that ONE Plus, its premium upgrade option for T-Mobile ONE, is now available for $15 per month, rather than $25 per month as charged previously, but without unlimited tethering at up to 4G LTE speeds.

For $15 per month per line, T-Mobile ONE Plus customers still get unlimited HD video streaming, unlimited international data roaming at up to 3G speeds, unlimited monthly Gogo in-flight Wi-Fi, Voicemail to Text, and Name ID call protection.

A new $25 per month tier called T-Mobile ONE Plus International continues to offer those add-ons plus unlimited tethering at up to 4G LTE speeds and Stateside International Talk for unlimited calling from the U.S to landlines in 70+ countries and mobile numbers in 30+ countries, along with discounted calling to 200+ countries.

The cheaper ONE Plus and new ONE Plus International upgrade options became available on Tuesday. Customers already paying $25 per month for the old ONE Plus option will be automatically upgraded to ONE Plus International, and must call or visit a T-Mobile store to switch to the cheaper $15 per month option.

The base T-Mobile ONE plan itself offers unlimited talk, text, and 4G LTE data for $70 per month. A second line can be added for $50 per month, while up to six more lines can be added for an additional $20 per month each. The total cost for a family of four, for example, would be $160 per month.

Simple Choice is a lot better than T-Mobile One. I'll keep my grandfathered plan. Too bad T-Mobile eliminated Simple Choice.

If you don't mind sharing, what area/county of SoCal? Here in Orange County I get excellent T-Mo coverage and speeds on my iPhone 7 :)
My brother lives in Glendale and he says it's great there. My brother-in-law works in Manhattan Beach and he says it's good there too. I live in the Loma Linda/Redlands area and anywhere I drive on a day-to-day basis (Loma Linda, Redlands, Colton, San Bernardino, Highland, etc) are all awful.

I tether my phone to my mac. Then mac shared the internet thought Ethernet to a wifi router. My average speed is 21 Mbps.
If you don't mind me asking, about how much do you pay monthly to do this. I also wonder if you could do it with a mobile hotspot.

Oh, and does your mac need to be running i.e. Not in sleep mode?

Interesting, I've thought about doing this as well. Do you only use mobile devices for internet, or do you have some sort of modem/wifi setup going where you can use laptops and other wifi devices?

I have cancelled my cable internet and used their unlimited tethering for several months now. Speed is decent and each month, I use over 200GB.

I may be misremembering, but I thought the big difference with T-Mobile One is that it doesn't allow HD video at all. I thought it was unlimited SD video. I have the simple choice plan that lets you choose whether you want to use up your data for HD or watch unlimited SD, and I feel like the reason I didn't want to switch was because I didn't want to give up HD video.

T-Mobile pretends like they are so straightforward, clear, and upfront about their un-carrier ways, but I think they're just as confusing as the rest.

(Also, I know a lot of people on here love T-Mobile, but personally I regret switching to them from AT&T. Their coverage in my area (Southern California suburbs) is horrible. They are truly a budget provider around here. I used to pay $120 for 2 lines and could use my phone anywhere. Now I pay $60 a month and can only use my phone reliable at home on my wifi network. We switched to T-Mobile when the iPhone 7 came out and as soon as the iPhone 8 comes out we're switching to Verizon.)

Edit: I just looked it up to confirm. This article is wrong. You get unlimited SD video for the regular T-Mobile One plan. It's an additional $25 per line to upgrade to the One Plus plan which includes unlimited HD video.
