T-Mobile today said it will give current customers unlimited LTE data for a full year if they convince an AT&T, Sprint, or Verizon customer to switch to T-Mobile.
T-Mobile is likening the program to “throwing a lifeline” to those on competing networks. Not only does the current customer receive unlimited LTE for a year, but so does the new customer. Customers who already pay for unlimited data will receive a $10 monthly credit instead. The referral program kicks off August 29. Customers will then be able to enter their own number and the number of a friend who’s ported their service, which must be reported within 30 days of the friend’s activation.
The referral program runs for a limited time, but T-Mobile didn’t immediately indicate an end date. It doesn’t apply to pre-paid plans, and is limited to one referral per account.
