[{"type":"text","content":"\nAvoid the summer bummer of a rising phone bill from The Carriers and switch to the Un-carrier’s unchanging rates\n\nWhat’s the news: AT&T and Verizon are once again increasing costs for longtime customers who thought their phone bills were the last thing they had to worry about in a world where prices are rising from the gas pumps to the grocery store. Not cool, bro.\n\nWhy it matters: The Carriers are fighting inflation by going straight for their customers’ pockets. It doesn’t have to be this way. T-Mobile is standing by its commitment to customers with Price Lock, which ensures T-Mobile won’t raise the price of its existing wireless rate plans even as costs for everything else increase.\n\nWho it’s for: AT&T and Verizon customers facing price hikes.\n\n BELLEVUE, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--\nThe Carriers called. They want their greedy reputations back. AGAIN. AT&T is raising its rates, increasing customers’ bills by $6 to $12 per month. At the same time, Verizon is raising prices with a new made-up fee — the Economic Adjustment Charge — adding $1.35 per line. That extra charge will generate $100 million more per month for Verizon, which is $1.2 BILLION in just one year. To put it into perspective, that’s more than 260 million gallons of inflation gas that The Carriers are swiping from customers over the next year. It’s downright disgusting!\nThis press release features multimedia.

But that’s The Carriers’ way,” said Mike Sievert, CEO, T-Mobile. “T-Mobile is here to help our customers battle inflation by not adding to the stress of price hikes.
