T-Mobile Announces Prorated Contract Termination Fees for 2008

T-Mobile has announced the
intention of prorating both new and current customer termination fees
beginning in the first half of 2008.
Under the new policy, the amount a customer pays to terminate a
contract early gradually decreases as each month of the agreement
passes, giving a customer greater flexibility instead of being forced
to remain solely due to a large fee.
Verizon and AT&T were the first to implement this practice as a way to improve customer service and address longstanding customer complaints regarding inflexible contract terms.

Why in the heck would a customer get a “discounted” Early Termination
fee? YOU ARE CANCELLING!! why would you think that we would give you a
“break” your leaving?? The new policy has NOT takin effect..and it only
decreases the length of time you start with T-mobile, for example….you
start with T-Mobile on March/1/2008 then then you decided to cancel in
june… thell give you a lower etf but if you had t-mobile BEFORE you
wont get credit for that… duh :x

i think there should be prorated etf's because if you had service for like 20 months outa like 24 shuold you have to pay full etf i dont think so because they have already made there money back from the subsidized handset they sold you. I think that if you bring your own phone to them you shouldnt have to sign a contract just like att has started doing.
