Just when some wireless carriers were trying to move away from phone giveways, T-Mobile US Inc. upped the ante on Thursday with a deal offering new customers as much as $1,000 if they switch.
The second-largest U.S. wireless carrier said that starting Friday consumers who bring a bill from their current provider to a T-Mobile store can get a prepaid debit card for any remaining amount owed on their phone, up to $1,000.
