Pricing with autopay discount

Each plan includes a five‑year price guarantee. Note: Prices exclude taxes, surcharges, fees, and a device‑connection charge of up to $35 per line (as reported by ZDNET managing editor Alison DeNisco Rayome).
Free Hulu for Go5G Next customers
The free Hulu subscription is also available to Go5G Next customers; Experience Beyond is essentially the rebranded Go5G Next.
A key benefit is that existing T‑Mobile customers can claim the free Hulu account even if they already have a Hulu subscription. You’ll need to cancel your current Hulu subscription and wait until the end of the billing period before redeeming T‑Mobile’s offer. Activate the free Hulu subscription in a few steps via the T‑Life app under the Add‑ons menu.
How I rated this deal
This deal is excellent, especially when you consider the bundle of free Hulu, free Netflix, and $3 Apple TV included in your phone plan. It’s smart to keep an eye on benefits from providers you already use—mobile, internet, and TV. With colder weather encouraging cozy nights indoors, this offer is a great way to boost entertainment at no extra cost.
We’re not sure how long the promotion will last, but it appears to be a longstanding benefit for select T‑Mobile customers (at least for now). Deals can sell out or expire at any time, and ZDNET remains committed to finding, sharing, and updating the best product deals.
