T-Mobile Implements $0.01 per Minute Charge for Making Calls to Out-Of-Plan Numbers

 
Who This News is for?
If you are a T-Mobile cellular phone service subscriber, this news is definitely for you.  The company has revised its policy for conference calls. If you frequently have to make important conference calls then you must educate yourself with the new policy of T-Mobile in this regard.

A look at the New Policy:

T-Mobile has recently rolled out a new policy for all the cellular phone service customers who make calls to “out-of-plan phone numbers”. According to this new policy, all T-Mobile’s customers making calls to “out-of-plan phone numbers” will have to pay a $0.01 per minute charge. This charge will be applicable on services such as:
  • Conference calls
  • Chat lines
  • Radio Broadcast lines

T-Mobile Says:

The charge, according to the new policy, will affect calls only to a “Limited number of services”. Most importantly, most conference calls utilized by employers will not be subject to any such charge, confirms T-Mobile.

How You Can Avoid Paying This Charge:

If any cellular phone service subscriber ends-up using any service which is clearly subject to T-Mobile new $0.01 per minute charge, the customer will be warned after the number is dialed. In this way, customers will get an opportunity to hang up and avoid paying any such charges. 

T-Mobile has a Reason Behind Implementing This Charge:

This is not a charge to any existing calling plans. Instead such calls have always been deemed out-of-plan, says T-Mobile. In addition, the company also says that these calls tend to cost more for T-Mobile for competition and this further helps the company in the process of managing those costs.

The Main Culprit:

Seriously, this is not going to be a charge that all or most of the T-Mobile cell phone service subscribers are going to face. However, some folks have faced these charges in recent days, including some of them on Reedit. Services like freeconferencecall.com can be considered as the main culprit for this charge implemented by T-Mobile.

What to Do in Such a Situation?

All T-Mobile cell phone service subscribers are advised either to comply with the advice issued by the company unless they don’t mind paying $0.01 per minute charge for using a better and different level of service. 


At last:

The company has devised this new policy for its cell phone service subscribers for making calls to “out-of-plan phone numbers”.  However, this charge will be applicable for a limited number of services, as said by the company. Has anyone encountered any such $0.01 per minute “out-of-plan phone number” charge so far? If not, then such customers must get ready for it as soon as possible. Coming to the point, considering increasing market competition, it will be very interesting to see the way customers respond or react to this decision by T-Mobile.
