Anyone can enjoy discounted T-Mobile home internet. Plans are currently available at a starting price of just $35 for existing T-Mobile customers. And if you don't already have a T-Mobile voice plan, there are still some offers you can take advantage of. The Rely plan is normally $55, but it's $35 if you already have a T-Mobile voice line.

The plan includes everything the Rely and Amplified plans do, along with streaming perks and Wi-Fi Mesh access points. You'll also have to pay for any applicable taxes and fees on top of your monthly rate. Why this deal matters Internet plans don't come cheap and with it being an essential in our homes, it's a monthly cost we can't go without. It's also something we can't really skimp out on either, especially if you work or study from home. These T-Mobile plans start as low as $35 and the rates lock in for five years. So, you won't have to worry about your bill increasing soon.
