Are you someone who needs more than one mobile number but doesn’t want to carry around two smartphones? If so, you’re in luck! T-Mobile is now testing a new way for customers to add a second line to their handset, making it easier than ever to stay connected without the hassle of multiple devices.

Here’s what you need to know about T-Mobile’s latest offering:

– The second line will provide unlimited talk and text, although data is not included.
– To utilize this feature, your phone must support dual SIM functionality, with at least one SIM being an eSIM.
– The base price for the second line is $25 per month, but discounts are available. A “Hybrid BAN” discount can lower the price to $15, and an autopay discount can bring it down even further to just $10 per month.

How does this new option compare to T-Mobile’s existing DIGITS service? Here are some key differences:

– DIGITS allows for data on the second line, while the new plan does not.
– Some users find DIGITS complicated and cumbersome, requiring the download of an app. The new second-line plan aims to be more user-friendly and convenient for those needing an additional number for work or business purposes.

While the new plan shares similarities with DIGITS, there is speculation that T-Mobile may eventually phase out or rebrand the older service in favor of this new offering. Currently in a test pilot phase, the second-line service is being trialed in Seattle and South Florida. Most postpaid customers are eligible to participate, although access may be limited as only select representatives can add it to your plan.

If you’re located in one of the test markets and have a compatible phone, reaching out to customer support or visiting a T-Mobile store can help you easily add a new line to your device. Stay tuned for updates as T-Mobile continues to refine and expand this exciting new feature!
