"Whether serving overseas, responding to emergencies or supporting our communities at home, America's first responder and military families sacrifice so much," said Jon Freier, President, T-Mobile Consumer Group. "T-Mobile's new Essentials plans for Military and First Responders give these heroes what they deserve: hundreds of dollars in savings while getting industry-leading value on the country's leading 5G network. It's a small way to give back to those who give us so much."
Essentials First Responder and Military Plans
T-Mobile's new Essentials plans offer the best price for first responder and military families compared to AT&T and Verizon. For a family of three, each plan is just $90/month with AutoPay plus taxes and fees — that's a savings of nearly 20% each month — and over $250 annually! — when switching the whole family to T-Mobile's Essentials First Responder plan from AT&T's FirstNet Unlimited. Plus, verified first responder customers have the option to add the nation's first network slice for first responders for only $7.50/month, giving them priority network access to keep them connected during times of extreme congestion.
The new First Responder and Military Essentials plans include unlimited talk, text and data, unlimited texting in 215+ countries and destinations worldwide and exclusive benefits just for being customers with Magenta Status. That includes perks from top hotel and car rental brands, concert and movie tickets and access to the nation's leading 5G network. Plus, those Essentials plan savings get even sweeter with deals to score a free 5G phone on Us with 24 monthly bill credits when joining the Un-carrier.
First Responder and Military Customers Get More at T-Mobile
Essentials First Responder and Essentials Military join T-Mobile's existing Go5G First Responder and Military plans dedicated to these customers, offering more choice and flexibility to suit their needs. Whether it's just the Essentials (pun intended) or a more perk-packed Go5G First Responder or Military plan with Netflix on Us and free in-flight Wi-Fi, the Un-carrier offers something for everyone. These new plans further demonstrate T-Mobile's commitment to supporting first responder and military customers — and their families — as well as year-round initiatives like hiring 10,000 veterans and military spouses and the Connecting Heroes program, which offers up to $7.7 billion in potential savings through 2030 for first responder agencies.
Plus, with T-Mobile Starlink — the first and only space-based mobile network in the U.S. — now in public beta, wireless users across the country (even you, Verizon and AT&T customers) can get access to the largest satellite-to-cell constellation in the U.S. The free beta provides people with critical access to text messaging in the more than 500,000 square miles of the country currently unreached by any carrier's earth-bound cell towers. More details can be found here.
It's Easier than Ever to Switch to the Un-carrier
Ready to switch? The Un-carrier is helping people break free from their wireless provider for a limited time. Simply bring an eligible phone and T-Mobile will pay it off up to $800 with a virtual prepaid Mastercard. And switch with confidence knowing that in the event America's leading 5G network and unbeatable value isn't for you, T-Mobile will give you $125 back per voice line switched via a virtual prepaid Mastercard if you go back to your old carrier within 30 days.
