To hold AT&T and Verizon accountable for recently raising
prices anywhere from $6 to $12 a month for some longtime customers,
T-Mobile tapped musician, actor and general badass Dee Snider to
help let the Carriers know that the Un-carrier heard their silence
loud and clear. And so did consumers, businesses and the wireless
industry, and they’re not gonna take it anymore.
Earlier today, Snider rallied a crowd in Times Square and gave
them their marching orders: join him in belting out “We’re Not
Gonna Take It” outside of the AT&T and Verizon storefronts in
the heart of New York City. Watch the whole thing unfold here:

“People are clearly fed up with these price hikes, and there’s
no better global stage for making a statement than Times Square,”
said Snider. “Raising rates on people isn’t just infuriating, it’s
unnecessary – as T-Mobile has proved.”
While AT&T and Verizon have responded to inflation by asking
for more money from customers, T-Mobile is helping to tackle it
with Price Lock, which guarantees the Un-carrier won’t raise rate
plan prices even as costs for everything else increase.
T-Mobile isn’t alone, either. Providers like Mint Mobile, Ultra
Mobile and UScellular also have price protections in place for
their customers. But now, T-Mobile is calling for ALL wireless
providers to join the movement. The Un-carrier wants to transform
the wireless industry for the better by asking providers to stop
raising rate plan prices for customers, because it’s the right
thing to do – especially in these difficult, inflationary
times.
In the meantime, T-Mobile is here to save AT&T and Verizon
customers from further frustration. Not only can families and
businesses switch and save with T-Mobile, but they also have peace
of mind their rate plan price won’t go up with T-Mobile’s Price
Lock.
