On Thursday, T-Mobile committed to providing free service and 5G access to first responder agencies for the next ten years, which the mobile carrier says will save them over $7 billion.
Through the Connecting Heroes initiative, T-Mobile wants to give back to fire, police, and EMS departments that put their lives on the line every day to keep us safe. Agencies that are interested in signing up for the initiative can visit t-mobile.com/connectingheroes for more information. But the news doesn’t end there. T-Mobile and Sprint customers are also being given the opportunity to get a free iPhone SE or up to $500 off of a Galaxy S20.
“The way the Un-carrier says THANK YOU is, of course, by putting money back in your pocket — like with an iPhone on us or half off one of the latest 5G superphones,” said T-Mobile CEO Mike Sievert in a press release on Thursday. “This weekend, every T-Mobile and Sprint postpaid customer can get a new iPhone SE on us, or half off another brand-new phone, with eligible trade-in. Why? Because ‘thank you’ — that’s why!”
