First time getting t-mobile account, deposit amount?

[fivefivenine]

Just turned 18 looking to open a t-mobile account, how much am I looking at for the deposit? Thanks.

$0 I don't think they have deposits

I'm 18 with NO credit

and they let me sign up flex pay 2 year contract

and you get the phone at the discounted price

that's what my boy was saying to do, how does that work though? i know you pay the first month up front but then i was reading that when you pay your billyou pay half of the upcoming month too?

It was 250.00 for me

 

[sure lock 510]

when you sign up you pay the first month.. thats it

basically everything is UP FRONT
they stopped doing deposits a year ago, ftl

Nah. Well I got the curve and it was $150, and my bill is like 80 somethin' a month

So at the store I paid the 150 for the phone + 80ish for the first months bill

Then the next month you just pay your regular bill, which for me is like $85

But if you don't get automatic payment they tack on another $5 to your bill

I got my tmobile service at 18 and no credit and I didn't pay a security deposit

Flexpay is when they automatically deduct whatever money you pay after your billing cycle.
No credit I believe is $500. Good or okay credit is like, $250.

Sounds good i'm going to go check it out in a bit just wanted to make sure how much money to take with me, thanks.

Yeah right, when I got my T Mobile, I only paid a $50 deposit I think, and I got them 2 years ago.....and I was 20 with not so good credit.

I can't even think back that far, I was with Tmobile back when it was Voicestream.
