Because we determined that the deal will save money for the consumer, we wrote the content. Home internet is one of those monthly costs you can't avoid, but what you can do is pick a provider that offers some benefits to soften the blow. You can currently get a new line and get your first month on T-Mobile. The amount will come through as a bill credit, though you'll still cover the tax. On top of that, you can get as much as $200 back for a limited time in the form of a virtual prepaid card within 7 weeks from your rebate submission. Also: The best phones we've tested this year You can get the first month on T-Mobile on every one of T-Mobile's three home internet plans. How much cash you get back comes down to the exact plan you'll pick. The entry-level Rely plan costs $50 per month with AutoPay and it'll get you $100 back, and so will the mid-tier Amplified plan at $60 per month. If you want the full $200 back, you'll need to get the top-tier All-In plan, which costs $70 per month. Do keep in mind that all of these prices come with taxes and fees on top. If you have a qualifying postpaid voice line on your account, T-Mobile will knock another $15 per month off, which brings the Rely plan down to an affordable $35 per month. All three plans also come with T-Mobile's 5-Year Price Guarantee. That means the company won't change the price of your 5G internet data for at least five years while you stay on an eligible plan, though exclusions like taxes and fees still apply. Home internet rates are generally notorious for creeping up after the first year or two, so this perk is very useful if you want no surprise price hikes for a good while after you sign up. As for speeds, the Amplified and All-In plans will get you downloads of up to 398 Mbps and uploads of up to 55 Mbps. The Rely plan tops out at up to 354 Mbps for downloads. The All-In plan also comes with some extras, so those top-of-the-line savings are not all that you'll get. Hulu (with ads) and Paramount+ Essential are also included, along with T-Mobile's TechEdge Suite, which covers Advanced Cyber Security, 24/7 tech support, and a gateway upgrade after year three. If you're paying for either of those streaming services right now, this plan can basically absorb those costs into your internet bill. Also: What is Wi-Fi 7 and just how fast is it? Getting the money back will take you a couple of steps. You'll need to register your code within 30 days of activating the new line, and within 7 weeks of doing that, you should get your virtual card, provided your line is active and in good standing. Your first-month bill credit should also show up within 2 bill cycles of signing up. You'll get 6 months to spend the card before it expires, and there's no cash access on it. The kind of performance you get from 5G home internet depends on the signal at your specific address. T-Mobile has you covered in that area with the 15-day test drive, which lets you try the service before you fully commit. You can claim a refund if the connection doesn't hold up at your place, but you'll need to do it within 30 days of a qualifying cancellation. If you're an existing T-Mobile phone customer, you can still get this deal by adding a new internet line. If you canceled a T-Mobile internet line in the past 90 days, though, you may need to reactivate it first. You won't be tied to an annual contract or a monthly equipment fee, but you will need to send the gateway back undamaged when you cancel, or pay up to $370. Note: Credit approval is part of signing up, and the AutoPay pricing only works with a bank account or debit card on file. Without one, you'll have to pay $10 more per month. Because this is 5G-based internet, the speeds you'll actually see depend on your area, and your speeds may drop after you cross 1.2TB of usage. You should check availability at your address through the before you sign up for anything. Looking for the next best product? Get expert reviews and editor favorites with ZDNET Recommends. How I rated this deal I've been covering home internet and deals for a while now, and offers that combine a covered month with a prepaid card of this size aren't too common. On the All-In plan, you're getting $270 in value over your first 12 months. The 5-Year Price Guarantee means your rate shouldn't move after that year either. To get the full $200, you'll have to go with the priciest plan, though. You'll also need to wait on a registration step plus up to 7 weeks for the card, which is how these promos usually work, so you should be prepared for the wait. Similar card offers do show up at other wireless home internet providers, but pairing one with a covered month and a five-year rate guarantee is less common. That's why I gave this deal a 4/5 Editor's deal rating.
