T-Mobile Helps Customers Deal With Pain at the Gas Pump

Summertime is one of the busiest times to travel, and with that come expenses. 

Unless you drive an electric vehicle, chances are that you've noticed gas prices creeping ever higher during the warmer months. Gasoline prices often peak around Memorial Day and hold steady as more Americans are on the road traveling for holidays as the days are warmer and longer.

In an effort to alleviate some of this pinch at the pump, mobile carrier T-Mobile (TMUS) -) has teamed up with Shell and AEG Presents to make summertime a little more enjoyable. 

Beginning on July 25, both T-Mobile and Metro T-Mobile customers will be eligible for select discounts on gasoline and event tickets. Some of these perks include: 

  • Up to 25% off concert and event tickets sponsored by AEG Presents venues
  • 15 cents off per gallon for the rest of the year for Fuel Rewards Program members
  • Access special perks at select events, like Stagecoach, Lollapalooza, and Formula I Las Vegas Grand Prix

T-Mobile Attracts Customers With Perks and Discounts

T-Mobile has made it one of its trademarks to offer exclusive perks, discounts and deals to customers switching over to its product from a previous mobile service. Its popular promotion, T-Mobile Tuesdays, gives existing customers access to special deals every Tuesday. 

All customers have to do is download the T-Mobile app and sign up, then check it every Tuesday for rotating deals. Some of the past deals have been cash back at restaurants, free combos or sides at chain pizza shops, and the chance to win prizes. 

As of Q4 2022, T-Mobile is the third-largest mobile carrier in the U.S., behind AT&T and Verizon with 113.6 million subscribers. In 2022 alone, T-Mobile added a record 1.4 million postpaid net account additions, which it uses as a metric to measure customer growth. CEO Mike Sievert attributes much of its growth to its promotional, customer-forward approach. 

"It's clear that T-Mobile's ability to offer both the best network and value is bringing new customers to the Un-carrier and enticing those who join us to stay. And our momentum won't stop as we continue to translate our long-established 5G lead into overall network leadership and execute on our unique growth strategy. We are perfectly positioned to profitably take further market share in 2023 and beyond,” Sievert said of the record year.
