For a few months now, I've been receiving texts from T-Mobile, saying that I should replace my current phone before July 1st, because their 3G support ends then, and recommending that I trade it in to them for a OnePlus Nord N200 %G. All this time, I've been thinking that it's because my phone might not be compatible with the 5G technology. Yesterday, I discover that the "service interruption" that they've been urging me to avoid isn't from tech incompatibility. Instead, they've been talking about DENYING ME SERVICE, whether my old phone still works on their system or not. This is the latest text that I got:
