Shelly Palmer Radio Report – August 26, 2014

If you’re looking for more bang for your buck from your wireless provider, T-Mobile and Sprint are bending over backwards to gain your affection – and business. In a race to outdo each other and become the clear number three wireless provider in the U.S., T-Mobile and Sprint recently rolled out enticing new offers. T-Mobile is offering up a year of free unlimited LTE service to you and any friends you convince to switch over to its network. If you’re a T-Mobile customer that already has unlimited LTE and you bring a friend over, you’ll get a $10 credit on your account each month for a year. Sprint, meanwhile, is looking to undercut T-Mobile – as well as AT&T and Verizon – on price. New and existing Sprint customers who buy their phone outright or bring over a Sprint-compatible device are eligible for unlimited talk, text and data for $60 a month. Verizon and AT&T no longer offer unlimited data plans for smartphones, and the $60 price point is $20 less per month than T-Mobile’s cost.
