T-Mobile Debuts 'Jump On Demand' for Free Phone Upgrades

[cdmagurus.com]

T-Mobile today kicked off a new program called Jump On Demand, which will allow people to upgrade their phone for free up to three times per year. The Jump On Demand program builds on Uncarrier 2.0, which introduced the idea of early phone upgrades. Now customers can trade in their phone up to three times per year for a new handset at no additional cost as long as they continue to make the monthly phone payments. T-Mobile says the monthly pricing for Jump On Demand will be about the same as before and there's no extra $10 monthly program fee. Trade-ins will have to be in good working order to be accepted for a new handset. T-Mobile said most of its smartphones are eligible for the program. Customers already enrolled in the Jump program can get a new smartphone with Jump On Demand for free the next time they upgrade and will no longer have to pay the $10 fee. Customers who make 18 payments on their phone without upgrading will have the option of making one final payment to own the device or trade it in. Customers can choose to pay the balance of their handset at any time. As part of the launch, T-Mobile is offering the 16GB iPhone 6 for $15 per month with Jump On Demand as long as an old phone is traded in at the same time. Jump On Demand will be available in T-Mobile stores beginning June 28.
