Despite its repeated commitment not to follow the competition's example and jack up your monthly wireless service prices, T-Mobile has taken its subscribers by surprise (in a bad way) several times of late, increasing various forms of taxes and fees.That's right, this one goes out to our readers and friends on Metro rather than Magenta's own-brand postpaid (or prepaid) service, hiking your bill payment processing fee from $4 to $5 a month. If said fee doesn't sound familiar, it's probably because you have Autopay enabled on your account or you take care of your monthly bill through the official Metro by T-Mobile website.
In both cases, you have absolutely nothing to worry about, while if you pay your bill using phone assistance or in a good old fashioned brick and mortar store, you should be ready to cough up an extra buck every month starting very soon.
That's definitely not a small fortune, and given the excellent value you typically receive on a prepaid Metro by T-Mobile plan, it's probably not going to be enough to make anyone actually ditch this low-cost operator in favor of, say, Boost Mobile or Cricket Wireless. At the same time, it's yet another sneaky way for the once-transparent "Un-carrier" to raise its already hefty profits and average revenue per user while claiming its prices are as low as ever. Bottom line, this is totally not a cool move, T-Mo!
