T-Mobile: postpaid or prepaid?

[bobsacomano]

I went from prepaid $30/month 5gb 100 min plan to simple choice $70/month unlimited post paid about a year ago. Never had better cell service.

hi, any difference in cell service between prepaid and postpaid?

I have trouble recommending T-Mobile prepaid to anyone who can't use the $30 plan: you can get the same mainline plans with the bonus bells and whistles on postpaid for the same price, plus a few bucks in taxes, and if you really prefer prepaid Metro PCS, Simple Mobile, and Cricket all offer roughly the same services for less money.

The only other T-Mobile prepaid plan that I can think of pointing people at is the $80 unlimited one, just because it's truly unlimited, which you can't get as far as I know from any other prepaid GSM plan in the US.

Everybody can't or don't want another contract aka bill. If I can get the same service without the hassle why not?

And I feel the same way as far as plans go. I couldn't get anything less than unlimited.

None of T-Mobile's current plans have contracts, pre- or postpaid.

Well I tried to get postpaid and got denied. So did a couple others I know

Yeah, it's not a contract, but since you're paying for your service at the end of every month instead of in advance, they still do a credit check.

I'm not saying that people shouldn't choose prepaid, just that aside from the $30 and $80 plans, T-Mobile prepaid doesn't really have anything to recommend it.
