What To Do If I Purchased A new Phone From T-mobile But The Plan Is Not Eligible For the Yearly Upgrade?

If you switch from an eligible plan to one that is not eligible, or if you remove a qualifying premium data feature from your plan, you will lose the Yearly Upgrade benefit.

Notification and Action Required:

Upon changing to an ineligible plan or data feature, T-Mobile will send an SMS notification to the main account holder.

You will have a 30-day window to switch back to an eligible plan or add the qualifying premium data feature to regain the Yearly Upgrade benefit.

After switching back to an eligible plan or adding the necessary data feature, it may take up to 2 billing cycles for the Yearly Upgrade feature to be re-added to your line(s).
