Just got my Nexus 4 and took it up to T-Mobile to try and sign up for the $30 prepaid plan, the one with 100 voice minutes and unlimited text and data. Seems like that is just damned near impossible!
First T-Mobile sent me to Walmart. Walmart told me this was only available if you bought one of their phones. There was no way to do this with an existing unlocked phone.
So we went back to T-Mobile. They can't sell me a SIM card if it isn't activated on a plan, and they can't sell the $30 prepaid plan in stores. That is only available online.
So I go back home and go to their web site. I can order a SIM card kit, but the $30 prepaid plans are not available.
I give up! So what is the most reasonable prepaid plan I can use with this phone??? I only need it for a few months before we move back overseas...
