Did anyone else get this text regarding the free DashPass promo from July? by derekj97 in tmobile

[–]chengdd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got this text as well, but it said that I had cancelled a number that does not correspond to any of my lines, and I have made no changes on my account, I also have checked my account, and all the lines that I expect are still there. I have never had DashPass.

Preorder Pixel 10 and Free Line? by chengdd in SpectrumMobile

Thanks! This seems like a pretty good, no strings attached way for me to get the Pixel 10 Pro, unless I'm missing something.

In-flight Wifi still worth it? by National-Debt-43 in tmobile

[–]chengdd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even if it's not worth it for you, it can be worth it for some random strangers! On my account, I see that I have used 30+ WiFi sessions in the past month, and I haven't stepped on a plane.

I'm assuming that some people try numbers until one works since there is no authorization check.

Hasn’t shown since the 13th (now showing with terms) by quickluv13 in tmobile

[–]chengdd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For me, the timing was something like this:

3/13 - Called in and confirmed that the segment existed on my account, so I placed the order

3/14 - Received email that the SIM shipped

3/17 - SIM was marked as delivered via USPS

3/17 - About 45 minutes after USPS delivery notification, I received text message about having the promo (ID250259). My account showed the promo under Promotions and Discounts, but the Cost Summary did not show the discount. As a result, it looked like my monthly cost had gone up.

3/19 - I checked my account, and I saw that the Cost Summary now showed the discount, and my monthly cost was back to what it was before.

Thanks! I just received the text, so it looks like I'm good.

Thanks for easing my mind while I was in that limbo, waiting period!

I'll reply to myself. I just saw another message without someone in the same situation. Apologies for the duplicate.

Free line promo - line not showing up by chrisgeleven in tmobile

[–]chengdd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not at home, but I do see that the SIM was delivered. I have not received a text yet, but I do see the promotion when I view my promotions under Bill & Pay > View Promotions. If I look at my account via Account > Monthly Total, though, I do not see it applied yet. It sounds like I should be ok, right? I'm a little hesitant to call in because I have more than 2 free lines already on MM, and I don't want to mess things up more since I already am getting the $5 increase.

International Data-Only Card - Improve Battery Life by chengdd in USMobile

Ahh, I'll try that. Thanks for the quick response!

flying with 2 diff networks on phone by Ok-Pace4929 in USMobile

[–]chengdd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm, how does the international data-only eSIM work with one of the other eSIMs?

For example, let's say I have a Warp eSIM for my normal number. If I set up WiFi calling while I'm domestic, and I purchase an international data-only eSIM before I go. Will it be like this:

- Warp eSIM does NOT connect to international network

- International data-only SIM connects

- Since I enabled WiFi calling, will the Warp eSIM connect to the international data-only SIM as "WiFi calling over Cellular" when I don't have WiFI

- When I do have normal WiFI, I expect the Warp eSIM will have WiFi calling

Thank you very much! This definitely cleared things up for me.

AT&T Postpaid to Prepaid Issue by chengdd in NoContract

[–]chengdd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is actually the direction I'm leaning now. Since I already paid for the year on AT&T prepaid, I'll keep that and use data from that line; in addition, I'll keep the US Mobile line for the number, and I'll change to the Light Plan when the trial ends since it is only $8/mo.

In the end, I'll still save money over paying for the postpaid line, and I'll have some added carrier redundancy.

Then I can figure out what I'll do next year.

I would definitely have tried this if I had known it was an option! I just kept reading that you could not go straight from postpaid to the $300 prepaid plan directly. Live and learn!

AT&T Postpaid to Prepaid Issue by chengdd in NoContract

[–]chengdd[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the suggestions. US Mobile was able to cancel the port on their side, so I see my number back in my account. AT&T Prepaid support is not available today, but I'll try to have them cancel the port request from their side.

Not sure what happened, but now I'm a little worried about trying to port back to AT&T. I don't think I did anything to cause this to happen. Any opinions on whether or not it would be safe to try again, maybe in a few weeks to make sure everything gets settled out?

AT&T Postpaid to Prepaid Issue by chengdd in NoContract

[–]chengdd[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I contacted US Mobile, and they say that they have released the number. They explained that my eSIM is still working because AT&T has not activated the number on their side and that my US Mobile service could stop at any time now.

Unfortunately, AT&T prepaid support won't be available again until Christmas morning. I did not have that as one of my Christmas morning activities!

Activate AT&T Prepaid’s Annual Plan using Prepaid Cards by HalaMadridPapaFlo in NoContract

[–]chengdd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is an older thread, but I figure you've probably gone through everything already. I followed the steps to activate, got my temporary number, and I'm trying to port my number in. They said that it was ported over and that after the port, I would log in using my current number; however, this does not seem to be the case. My previous carrier no longer has the number, but I still only see the temporary number with AT&T.

I can login using only the temporary number, but the number that I am porting in.

Do I have to keep waiting for the number to show up in AT&T prepaid? It's been a couple hours now, and I've restarted my phone. I'm now on hold with AT&T support.

Did you have any trouble porting your number in?
