“However, in May 2024, T-Mobile unilaterally did away with these legacy phone plans and switched Plaintiffs and the Class to more expensive plans without their consent.”

I think this is the key point, which was buried in the middle of the article where I'm guessing the writer expected no one to bother looking and thus steer an anti-TMO narrative.

There is a HUGE difference between raising a plan price as pushed at the top of the article and ending a plan as actually presented in the lawsuit. From the sounds of it so far, TMO lived up to their promise, they didn't increase the plan price. They did not promise to keep the plan active in purpetuity. This kind of change happens all the time with subscription plans, and I expect the lawsuit to fail.
