Metro by t mobile pay phone bill

After several promises of not raising its prices, T-Mobile has done the unthinkable. Yep, they have raised the bill processing fee for Metro by T-Mobile customers. And unfortunately, this change is effective on September 1st. 

Metro by T-Mobile customers will now have to pay $5 per month instead of the previous bill processing fee of $4 per month. As pointed out by NWIDA, Metro by T-Mobile already increased this fee to $4 in August 2021. And after a year, we’re seeing another price increase.

If this fee doesn’t sound familiar to you, it’s likely because you have enrolled Autopay on your account. It’s also possible that you pay your monthly bill via the prepaid brand’s official website. As such, you won’t have to worry about being affected by this price hike. 

Meanwhile, for customers who pay their bill in a brick and mortar store or with phone assistance, this is an entirely different story. 

While the additional $1 per month fee doesn’t seem like much, incurring this fee for an entire year is $12. And that price can already do so much. Hopefully, this is the last price increase that Metro by T-Mobile customers will have to face. 

This free application is used for Metro by T-Mobile customers to make changes to their account at their fingertips. Check your balance and due date, review your 4G data usage, make payments, change plans or features, and even reset your voicemail password. Just another way to take care of the simple things without making a call or standing in line.

If you're having trouble with an upgrade or crashing/freezing issues, select the MyMetro app in your phone settings and clear all app storage. Try to re-download the app from the Play Store, or just re-launch if there is not an update option. You must accept all requested permissions, turn off wifi, and upgrade to the latest version of MyMetro; otherwise the app may not work properly. Dial 888-8Metro8 and request a representative if you continue to experience issues after following these steps.

T-Mobile will raise a bill payment fee for customers of its prepaid brand Metro by T-Mobile next month, according to a memo circulated to retail store employees this week and reviewed by The Desk.

Starting September 1, Metro by T-Mobile will charge a $5 processing fee when customers pay their bills via telephone or in-person at a retail store. Currently, the fee is $4 for the same feature.

The price hike is the latest fee increase rolled out by T-Mobile in recent weeks. Despite a pledge to not raise the cost of its wireless service plans, T-Mobile has increased little-known surcharges that impact some customers who upgrade their phones, require assistance over the phone or who are late paying their bills. Earlier this year, T-Mobile began charging customers $30 to activate a new account with the company — previously, the surcharge was $10 — though most retail associates and phone agents will agree to waive the account activation fee if a customer requests it.

Officials at T-Mobile say the price increases are intended to help offset rising costs associated with providing customers some of its services. Many services that are available in-store and online — including bill payment — are also available to customers through the T-Mobile and Metro by T-Mobile websites free of charge.

Other fees, including a regulatory telecommunications surcharge, were increased on customer accounts across the board, but only customers who subscribe to lower-cost T-Mobile or Metro by T-Mobile plans actually saw their bills go up.  Both brands have tax-and-fee-inclusive plans where regulatory rate increases are absorbed by the company, but they tend to cost customers more on a monthly basis. T-Mobile’s fee-inclusive plan, called Magenta, starts at $70 a month with AutoPay, while Metro by T-Mobile regularly runs a tax-inclusive promotion where one line of service costs $40 a month with AutoPay.

Earlier this year, a T-Mobile executive brushed off a suggestion from Wall Street that claimed the wireless it could earn more average revenue per user, or ARPU, if T-Mobile raised subscription fees across its plans.

“We found a better way to actually increase ARPU and service revenue, and that is to have customers select us,” Peter Osvaldik, T-Mobile’s chief financial officer, said at a media and telecommunications conference.

Instead of raising fees on its plans, T-Mobile is instead pushing customers to spend more on its wireless service, targeting costlier plans that offer more high-speed wireless data on an account and perks like a free Netflix subscription and in-flight Internet access.

“We expect to still see ARPU growth, but do it through creating value with customers and giving them an exchange of value that they’re willing to pay more for,” Michael Kats, T-Mobile’s chief marketing executive, said.
