Important changes to downward migration policy
On Wednesday 29th August two changes were made to the
T-Mobile downward migration policy.
1. Downward migrations are currently not permitted until month 11
for new customers. This will now also apply to renewing and
upgrading customers. All new, renewing and upgrading customers
should be advised that they will not be able to downward migrate
their price plan for 11 months.
2.Customers who downward migrate after month 11, but then
request a contract cancellation while still within their minimum
contract term, must be advised that the early termination charge
they will be required to pay will be calculated on the higher
original monthly charge that they were paying prior to the price
plan change. This will also apply if they have downward migrated
more than once after month 11 and within their minimum contract
term.
