T-Mobile Offering $10 Data Plan Credit for One Year

Jun 14, 2011, 7:41 AM by Eric M. Zeman

T-Mobile today announced a promotion it is having on Saturday, June 18, that offers a year's worth of "free" data. New and existing customers who purchase a new handset with a new two-year plan are eligible for a $10 credit towards any of T-Mobile's data plans, including the 200MB feature phone data plan, as well as its 2GB, 5GB and 10GB plans. Using the $10 credit toward the 200MB plan makes that plan effectively free. The credits will total $120 over a year's time, and are only available to purchases made on June 18.

These kinds of business tactics

are what puts a company under. T-Mobile has to generate a certain level of revenue in order to continue operating profitably, and offering rate plans - especially data plans - for dirt cheap is not the way to do it.

Especially having to cater to consumers' insatiable demand for all things data, these credits are stupid. I'd like to see an accurate ARPU figure for T-Mobile, and then compare that to the $120/year they'll be losing.
