What options do I have to receive my bill?

There are three different ways you can receive your statement from T-Mobile. Refer to the information below for descriptions on each of the three options:

Paperless Billing allows our customers to receive their billing statements online, rather than in a paper format. For more details on Paperless Billing, go to What is Paperless Billing?

There are also two options to receive your bill in a paper format:

Summary Paper Bill is a statement that provides a quick and accurate overview of your bill. This statement provides a summary of your service charges and the balance due.

Detailed Paper Bill is a statement that itemizes each call and all usage, service charges, taxes, and fees. There is a low cost per month to receive your bill in this format.

What billing details are included on a Summary Bill Statement?

The Summary Bill Statement provides a breakdown of the cost for your rate plan and features, as well as a total count of services used during the month.

The Summary Bill Statement provides all call detail if you do go over your included rate plan minutes, any long distance or roaming calls incurred during a bill cycle, and detailed information about any downloads purchased over the billing cycle.

What billing details are shown on the Detailed Billing Statement?

The Detailed Billing Statement includes a breakdown of the cost for your rate plan and features and this format will provide all call details for the billing cycle. The statement will show summaries of text message usage, as well as myFaves®, Wi-Fi Calling, and data usage.

Any long distance or roaming calls incurred during the billing cycle and download information is also provided.

What are the differences between the billing formats?

The Summary Bill Statement provides the necessary details to understand your bill and your usage, without all the extra pages.

The Detailed Bill Statement gives the same necessary details, but also provides all call, usage, and service charges in an organized statement for those that need that information monthly.
