Verizon is offering existing customers an additional 1 GB of data for two billing cycles, while T-Mobile is giving all customers unlimited data for three whole months. These deals start on different dates, so head into the story to see how to get them and where.
If you’re an existing Verizon customer before this Wednesday, you’ll be eligible for the following deals:
- 1 GB of extra data for the next two billing cycles
- $5 iTunes credit
- Select free downloads of movies, TV shows, and e-books from Amazon
- 30-day free trial of Pandora One, normally $4.99 per month
- $20 in Lyft credit
- Free airport Wi-Fi when powered by Boingo
- 30 minutes of free Wi-Fi on select Boingo-powered airlines
There are a few caveats though. Unlike T-Mobile’s normal Unlimited LTE plan, customers will not be eligible for either the free Vudu movie rentals or tethering. It is unclear if you will also be subject to T-Mobile’s other unlimited limitations, such as a soft cap when using more than 21 GB of data. If the network is busy and you’ve used more than 21 GB of data, normal unlimited customers are de-prioritized until the network is no longer busy or they leave the area. That will probably be revealed once people start to use that data.
Sprint is also offering some pretty good deals, but not any free data. But they are still excellent offerings, such as a free TV or Amazon Prime. These deals apply both to existing and new customers, and they will be available only on Black Friday:
- Activate an LG G4, get a 24-inch HD TV worth $179.99
- Activate a Samsung Galaxy S6, Samsung Galaxy S6 edge, Samsung Galaxy S6 edge+ or Samsung Note5 and get free Amazon Prime for one year
