This post is in regards to the tablet offer people have mentioned. I just got done with a chat and was told I would have to cancel my 8/3 pre-order and order again as the promotion didn't start until 8/5 which I didn't do. The rep stated that in the terms of the promotion both the phone and tablet have to be purchased at the same time and you have to sign up for a minimum 1GB data plan for the tablet. I asked if I could later change the data plan do the Data On Demand to truly make the tablet free and he said no and that it is clearly stated in the terms of the promotion and if you accept the offer you are agreeing to the terms of the promotion. He sent me to this page:
Samsung Phone Deals | Samsung Phone & Tablet Offer | T-Mobile If you to to the very bottom there is a "Questions about Samsung offers?" section, click on the "What is this Samsung Tab E / Tab A on Us promotion?" section for all the details. I know one member said they got the rep to add the tablet even though they didn't purchase them at the same time so it may be hit or miss on the rep you get. As far as the data package is concerned, it's pretty clear that you are agreeing to the terms so not sure you will be able to get away with changing it to Data On Demand. Only reason I say that is T-Mobile has to make some money back on the tablet so it would make sense. Anyways, just thought I'd share. I already have a Samsung tablet but who would pass up on a free one!
