T-Mobile offers amazing lifetime discount to some new customers
T-Mobile has been rolling out a series of competitive phone offers lately in a bid to capture new customers or prompt current ones to upgrade. This includes a free Galaxy S25 Edge with any trade-in for those signing up for the Experience Beyond plan, as well as a Switch And Pay Off Program that will pay off up to $800 per line when you switch carriers and help you score a free new iPhone 16 Pro when you make the change. Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter Now, however, the company is quietly offering one of the best deals available on its services – and it's a coveted discount that's usually only offered by company employees. T-Mobile's new offer is a popular one because it will save you money for the life of your service, not just on the phone you buy up front. It's called the Insider Discount because it is usually only available from employees who typically offer it to convince new customers to port their phone number from other carriers and sign up for T-Mobile for the first time. Related: T-Mobile unveils a phone deal so good, you may (finally) upgrade Customers who are offered the Insider Discount get 20% off the advertised rate for voice lines on their account for as long as they keep the account open. The discount can be stacked with other deals that the company is offering, so those who opt in can also get a low-cost or free device as well. The 20% off deal is an in-demand discount not just for the upfront savings but also because it applies to any future lines that you add to your account. So you can enjoy the special savings for a long time to come, even as your phone needs grow. T-Mobile's new Insider Discount offer is, unfortunately, not available to everyone. The carrier is rolling out the offer specifically for some T-Mobile home internet customers. Customers who are signed up for the home internet service but not for cellular service may be sent a discount code, likely via email or text message.

It's also available only for new customers who select the Experience More and Experience Beyond Plans, both of which offer faster speeds and plenty of perks, as they are the company's newest plan options. T-Mobile has been experiencing higher churn rates recently and has warned of slower growth throughout the second half of 2025 because of customers engaging in forward buying in anticipation of tariffs. Rumors also suggest the company has plans for more loyalty promotions in light of the ongoing customer exodus.

This added incentive could sweeten the pot and be just the thing that convinces them to finally pull the trigger. The Arena Media Brands, LLC THESTREET is a registered trademark of TheStreet, Inc.

Some T-Mobile customers may soon be able to score a special lifetime discount
T-Mobile uses excess capacity on its 5G network to provide an alternative to wired internet to households. T-Mobile 's Home Internet is affordable and fast enough for most customers. It starts at $35 for customers with voice lines and at $50 for customers who don't use its cellular services. The company is now extending a coveted discount to some Home Internet-only customers to get them to switch from their current cellular provider. T-Mobile is expected to witness slower growth in the second half of the year due to forward buying by customers as a result of tariff fears. The company is reportedly also experiencing a customer exodus. That's perhaps why it has been rolling out retention deals and switcher promos. With its latest offer, T-Mobile is seemingly going after customers who are happy with its Home Internet. The company is hoping that their positive experience might make them consider using its voice services too. Per The Mobile Report , the company is now offering the famous Insider discount to select Home Internet-only accounts. This is a special discount that only employees can offer you. It's usually given to new customers to get them to port in or bring in their number from another carrier. It usually knocks prices down by 20 percent for the life of the account. The Insider discount for Home Internet customers will work similarly. You will pay 20 percent less than the advertised rate for voice lines for as long as you maintain your account and the discount will even apply to any lines you may add in the future. It will be stackable with other discounts, so you don't have to worry about missing out on other deals. The discount code will only work if you opt for T-Mobile 's latest Experience More and Experience Beyond plans. This could be a deal breaker, considering T-Mobile has been criticized for not including taxes and other fees with the prices for these plans. However, as the company's newest plans, they come with the best it has to offer, meaning you will get faster speeds and perks that other plans might not include. Here's how T-Mobile's new plan compares to similar plans from AT&T and Verizon. | Image Credit - Business Wire Also, T-Mobile is often ahead of other companies when it comes to technological advancements. For instance, the company's 5G Home Internet hardware supports 5G SA, which ensures a top-notch network experience. It's also the only carrier to support UL Tx Switching, which will make sure that your handset makes the most of its hardware. Since Insider codes are handed out by employees, there is not much you can do as a customer if you want to get your hands on them. T-Mobile will likely notify eligible employees via an email or text message, so make sure to not ignore messages from the carrier if you want to lock in a 20 percent discount for life. This is a limited-time offer and is unlikely to last long.

Select T-Mobile customers will have a special reward waiting for them on May 8
T-Mobile often hands out free lines to customers. The carrier usually requires customers to activate one or two paid lines to get a free one. The company is reportedly going to roll out a new free line deal later this week which won't have this requirement. The folks at The Mobile Report have learned that the company will soon start doling out free lines to select customers. The promotion will kick off on May 8. This deal will apparently only be for customers who have been with the company for at least five years and satisfy certain other conditions as well. To be eligible, a customer must not have more than one free line already and must have not canceled a voice line in the last 90 who have "Hometown Discount," Insider discount, or Work Perks discount do not qualify. This is apparently the first free line deal that excludes customers with the insider discount. This popular discount takes 20 percent off voice lines for as long as an account is deal is also valid for both employee accounts and business accounts. The free line is Bring Your Own Device(BYOD)-only, meaning you will never be able to finance a device on it. While the line will be free, customers will have to pay the $10 Device Connection Charge. To find you if you qualify for this deal, all you have to do is wait for May 8, which is only a day away. T-Mobile will notify those who qualify via text message. Alternatively, customer service representatives should be able to check if you are among the segmented "Loyalty BYOD May 2025" eligible customers. Once you learn that you qualify, you can order your free line online or using the T-Life app. This is a good time to grab whatever perks you can get, particularly free lines. After all, T-Mobile has made no guarantee that it wouldn't raise prices in response to tariffs. The company has also removed Go5G plans from its websites and is encouraging customers on very old plans to switch to a more recent one. There are also other ways to save. For instance, the company is running an amazing deal on the latest iPhone models and has also waived the Device Connection Charge (DCC) for a limited time.
