T-Mobile Officially Announces “Magenta Deal Days” Beginning September 21st
It’s all official now as T-Mobile announces “Magenta Deal Days” beginning September 21st and running through September 30th.
From Sept. 21–30, new and existing T-Mobile customers can purchase any device, including the Samsung Galaxy S® III, for $0.00 down payment on qualifying Unlimited Value™ and Unlimited Nationwide 4G Data plans after mail-in rebate card.
T-Mobile’s big sale push is supported by the recent launch of their Unlimited Nationwide 4G Data plan, which features no data caps, no speed limits and no overages. In fact, they cite a study that shows data now makes up over 85% of all the mobile traffic in the US.
New customers qualify for this deal when they sign a new two-year agreement on any qualifying Unlimited Value and Unlimited Nationwide 4G data plan, including the 5GB and 10GB plans. Existing customers are also welcome to take advantage of this offer with migration over to T-Mobile’s Value Plans.
“Our customers continue to appreciate our ‘Magenta Deal Days’ offerings because they showcase our commitment to giving all our customers the best 4G experiences,” said Andrew Sherrard, senior vice president of marketing, T-Mobile USA. “With back to school in full swing, we’re glad to offer another great deal to keep families in touch.”
The promotion requires for a down payment, so it’s technically not zero down— for example, the Samsung Galaxy S III on a Value Plan will require an out-of-pocket down payment of $149.99, with a mail-in rebate card of $150 for a net down payment post-rebate for $0.00. Technically, it’s not zero down, but rebates are an unfortunate and yet familiar part of the wireless business.
