8/20/09 Edit:

The original deal is expired. Today's best deal involves buying 4 $25 cards here for $91.95

With the 10% bing CB and 2% eb@y bucks, the price is about $81.

When this seller is sold out, find the best combination of $25, $50, or $100 refill cards to apply the CBs to.

To get the bing CB on eb@y. Go here. Click on one of the eb@y products shown to go to eb@y.

The green Microsoft CB box must be present on all eb@y pages to ensure you get the bing CB.

There are several eBay pages at the $45.97 price. Move to the next page if this page sells out.

Equivalent Of $100 T-Mobile PrePaid Refill For $80.96 On eBay After 12% bing CB.

Purchase 2 $50 T-Mobile refill cards for $45.97 each.

Do the math: 2 X $45.97 = $91.94 - $11.04 (12% bing CB) = $80.90. (Minus 2% more if you have eBay Bucks).

After you receive the cards in the mail, call T-Mobile at 1-877-778-2106 and ask that the 2 $50 cards be entered as 1 $100 card to increase the expiration date.

Alternately you can dial *8646 and add a card, then when it asks if you would like to add another card it will actually take the 2 $50 dollar cards and add them to your account as the sum or $100 dollar card. It will work for 4 25 dollar cards also. (Thanks sideout)

Right on time...just need to refill my prepaid T-Mo phone.
In for 2. My total net cost is...2*$45.97 - $11.03 - $ 1.84 = $79.07
TYOP !!!


Note:
The other good price I found is from Target...$88 + Tax (for 2*$50 T-Mo prepaid cards).

Good deal.

I usually collect and save the $25 cards that come occasionally with cheap prepaid phones on tmo's website.
4 $25 cards cost me ~$45 after everything and I still have two cheap phones as backup. Used up all the cards two days ago. I am good to go for one year.

Thanks, Got an instant CashBack in my paypal account.

They won't combine them to make a $100 card because $100 cards have a 10 cent per minute rate. $50 cards have a 15 cent per minute rate.

And also, if you aren't already a gold rewards member (the only way to get 1 year expiration), getting to exactly $100 won't make you a member. You have to call and complain to get them to manually switch you.

I called today with a new phone and asked CS to combine 4 $25 cards for me to make 1 $100 card. She said OK, she did, and texted me before she hung up. I registered online and I have 1010 minutes, they expire 8/15/10, and I am a Gold Rewards member. Didn't need to call back.

May I ask you a question...
When did the last time you deal w/ T-Mo CSR?

Well, I usually explain to the CSR that the store is out of $100 card & sell 2x$50 cards instead, which is true in this case as well.
No problemo...

They technically shouldn't combine the cards, but since they're indian they're pretty easy to convince into doing stuff. Another tip: any call < 30 seconds long can be refunded as a "dropped" call. Only catch is you have to call for a credit within 24 hours.

They must have changed their policy on the $100 gold rewards, because at the time I signed up, even their brochures said "add $100 or more and you get 1 year". But I had to call and complain when the phone didn't update to "gold" after I put in exactly $100.

TMo has a simple policy regarding prepaid cards. Fill $100 in any combo in the same session, you get 1000 mins & 1 year. No hassle!
Fill $100 in different sessions/days, you have to go through CS to get the above, and it's very YMMV - most likely not gonna happen. Just the months n minutes based on each card's value.

You guys should consider going through the 35% Bing T-Mobile CashBack link. I was able to get a $100 refill for $65 after Bing. Thread here:

Could you please confirm that this works if I refill my phone through the T-Mobile website?

If you dial *8646 and add a card, then when it asks if you would like to add another card it will actually take the 2 $50 dollar cards and add them to your account as the sum or $100 dollar card. It will work for 4 25 dollar cards also. Sometimes Target does the 25 dollar cards for 20 bucks which is a good deal. Never done it through website but that way so I am not sure personally. Just over the phone I have gotten the better deal.

In Bing shopping, when I search for T-Mobile refill card, I got nothing. I know the URL for the $50 cards, but don't I have to find them via search in Bing to see the CashBack icon to get the CashBack?

I'd appreciate if someone could help. I have struggled with this for a while and I do need to buy these refill cards.

Same question here as well...What do you have to put it the search window to get to that page?
