How to cancel your TMobile phone service if you’re moving to Japan without the (rediculous) fee.
Let me guess… You found out you’re going to teach English in Japan? Woot! Awesome… you get the packet and find out all the fees of getting paper-work and stuff is on your dime, however. (Suck) Then on top of all that you probably have personal stuff like your TMobile Phone contract you’ll have to cancel– which isn’t cheap either.
I’m in this boat and I’m thinking the cost to move is getting uncanny. So I called Tmobile today to get the scoop on moving while you’re still on contract. (To make it short):
- Option A is Simple… Cancel the contract and pay the $200 fine.
- Option B also is simple… Keep some money in your US bank account and pay the monthly bill till your contract runs out… (for me that’s in Oct. which would be $80)
- Option C– Cancel and pay nothing. Wha…what?!?!
