Man,
This has worked out great for me. I went through the process without any problems. I definitely recommend this to anybody looking for a good phone service deal.

Here is some relevant info I thought you and your readers would like to know.

Don’t buy into this scam. For example, a flight from Atlanta to Florida costs $600. Plus the system is very poor — after 6 attempts at booking a flight, it keeps returning a ‘no recommendations’ response. (It doesn’t list available flights, so finding a flight is either impossible or difficult). I am a 10-year customer with T-Mobile, and received this offer for my long-term status. It’s a scam.

I am having a problem with T-mobile free flight promotion as well. I signed up for the service on Nov. 23rd. My receipt shows date ordered is 11/23/07. But since I have a fraud alert on my credit and this was a weekend, they could verify my account until the following weekday. I was told by the representative that as long as I applied and purchased the phone on that weekend, that I qualified. He also stated that I had until Dec 26th to activate the phone which is printed in fine print on the rebate phone. Well, T-Mobile denied the request because my phone wasn’t activated until Nov. 30th. This is BS. I am going to take this to court as well. Their forms says, “Offer valid November 23, 2007 through November 25, 2007…Must be active by December 26, 2007…”

I have requested my “free” fare three times and each time they tell me I have not filled the form out correctly. No one seems to be able to help and the one person that said she could help said it may be up to 2 weeks before they can get back with me. Everything has to be requested thur the postal service. This is crazy in today’s commputer and overnight service. BS…….

Ok folks,

we all know they are a bunch of crooks…so…

1) ANY and ALL correspondence to them ( TLC marketing or t-mobile) including the applications, should be sent by certified mail, return receipt requested.

2) If you do not get your tickets, sue them in small claims court for the value of the tickets. Anyone can do this – this is your right as an American citizen. DO NOT wait for a class action suit – you will get pennies on the dollar. You WILL win in small claims court, and they will feel it a lot more. Power to the people!

I still have not received my voucher, or any correspondance regarding the promotion. When I call, I am told they see no reason I should not have received the voucher. My boyfriend received a letter saying he was eligible, but he has not received a voucher either.

A class action lawsuit sounds appropiate for fraudualent T-mobile.

T-Mobile has said our vouchers have been mailed. There is a T-Mobile agent working with me everyday for weeks trying to assist us. TLC has not sent our vouchers and it is July 2008. Never again.

T-Mobile did not honor their promotion, we received booking request forms and it required 3 different destinations and 3 separate dates. We signed up with T-mobile just to take advantage of this promotion. T-mobile denied our booking request forms because we were only interested in Miami as a destination. Although they told us it was okay to choose only one destination when we called and asked, they denied us afterwards. This forced us to purchase airline tickets 2 weeks before our vacation at a cost of $425.00 more than if we would have bought them earlier. We cancelled our contract and they penalized us $600.00 more. I’ll never do business with this company again… pure corruption.

IF YOU DON’T FILL THE FORMS OUT CORRECTLY YES. THEY WILL SEND IT BACK, MAKING YOU WAITING TO BOOK YOUR FLIGHT ALL OVER AGAIN. WHICH I FEEL B.S .THERE’S NO 1800 NUMBER.. I WILL FALL FOR T-MOBLIE PROMOTIN EVER AGAIN. ALL A BUNCH OF FRAUD AND UNDERLINE THINGS YOU HAVE TO GO THROUGH JUST FOR TICKETS.

I’m just waiting until the end of June before I call tmobile and bring the fire. I added myfaves and a second line. Have been a customer for three years since November haven’t had a late balance and have heard NOTHING about my voucher. I have a lil trick for T-Mobile though.

Was wondering if anyone has taken their free flight yet and how it worked out? I sent in my vouchers but haven’t heard from TLC as of yet. It’s been almost 30 days and I requested to travel on May 24th.

By: Courtney

Courtney — Thu, 01 May 2008 01:46:35 +0000

I have not received my voucher yet. Was an existing customer and changed to MyFaves plan over the phone on 11/25. Did not take effect until my next billing cycle, but was told I qualified. I have been fearing the worst since I signed up. I called last month and they said the voucher were MAILED in March and would arrive in April (despite original details saying we would receive them in March). I called today since it is April 30th and was redirected to 605-978-2047 which was already “closed” but the recorded message said that if you haven’t received your voucher you should wait until May 1st before calling again. I hope they are extending the one year window to use the vouchers as well! I was also under the impression that balance had to be current on February 29th, not every month up to that date. My boyfriend has his own plan and has not received his voucher either. I have a feeling they are going to have a lot of unhappy customers over this promotion.

I received one of the 2 vouchers last week. I am waiting for my second one because they said they would be sending them in batches. They better not lie! They told me to call them back if i dont get them by next week.

I just learned we were denied because we had a late balance in Jan. The sales lady for T-mobile told us that it was ok to have a late balance as long as BY Feb. 29, you didn’t have one. I don’t like being mislead. I have been a customer of theirs for over five years, I wonder how many others they jipped into this deal by telling them the same thing. I contacted a “representative” today who said that there was no one I could talk to because the company that handles the promotion is no longer available. What?

So did you get your vouchers yet? March is almost over and I have not heard of anyone receiving their free fight voucher.

By: Omers

Omers — Thu, 07 Feb 2008 03:48:07 +0000

can u get the lx for a discount price?

Free flights are for new and existing customers, just renew your contract for 2 year, and have a myfaves rate plan, and fill out the “rebate-ish form” and you get a free flight roundtrip.

If you already upgraded and extended on 11/21, you can still call cust care and have them renew on the 23rd, and still be eligible…

You have to still have the rate plan on Feb29th ( no past due either) when they process the free flight vouchers, earliest you could fly would be March of 08, but you have until April of 09 to use it. You must give the travel agency 30 days…

The sweepstakes for 5000 more flights is just extra…

Think it is limited to two tickets even with a Family plan of 3, or 4, or so on…

round trip?
or one-way?

By: Mr Risto

Mr Risto — Wed, 14 Nov 2007 05:16:52 +0000

Is it one flight per phone or per account? If I get a family plan I would need 3 tickets. T-mobile may be seeing my money.

Funny…I just got the offer in the mail today, but switched over to Verizon on Saturday for the new Pearl.

I guess I’ll have another letter coming in the mail soon…HA!

Where are all the people complaining about current customers not getting the same deal as new ones. It seems like when VZW, AT&T, and Sprint have a deal for new customers people complain that they can’t get it. This is larger than $50 off a phone, only 5000 tickets for their existing customers to win? I’m not complaining, first I don’t have t-mob, 2nd i understand that new customers always get better deals initially, but customer loyalty can payoff with discounted monthly dues. it just seems like there are a large number of people that don’t understand this, and they bash the other carriers for doing the same thing.
