Default I just purchased my Blackberry 8320 and the PRICE JUST DROPPED! ($100 price diff)

I just purchased it a few days ago, but I can't remember if the pricing has changed. I just looked on the website and I remember paying more for it. Right now its only $149.99 for the 2-year contract.

I'm panicking...will they do a price adjustment? I can't find the receipt now because I'm away from home at the moment.

UPDATE:

I paid around $290 total and the price just dropped to $149.99!!!! HELP!

UPDATE 2:

I went to the store and was able to get a price adjustment of only $50. It's not bad, but I was researching and found out that Verizon has the newer version, Curve 8330, for only $100!!!!

I don't know what to do; I'm so confused!! Do you guys think they will offer a price match? I know I'm pushing it, but this is just so frustrating lol!

Verizon's family plan costs a lot more than T-mobiles, so thats why I'm very hesitant with switching to Verizon. Why are Verizon's phones always better, newer, and cheaper???!!!!

BTW, thanks for all of your help and suggestions!

OMG thank you so much for telling me!!!!!!

I paid around $290 and the price now is only $150. Can you believe how angry I am right now? The representative told me that he can't do anything about. I asked for a supervisor and they said that they will call me back within 48 hours. I do NOT have time to wait around as I have a very busy schedule.

a1wireless(DOT)com is where I got my 8320 Titanium Curve for free when it was pretty new (it had an awesome rebate we couldn't pass up). I'm paying $69.99 a month because we got two phones and wanted the my faves family plan + the BIS.

I believe it's 15 days (30 days in California) everywhere for a price adjustment. I could be wrong as I haven't been with t-mobile since the sk3 came out.

Wow, I am so jealous!! My phone plan is different though because its the regular 500 mins family plan with 2 extra lines. I wanted to keep my plan, so I couldn't sign up with another plan.

Thank you! Even though they are 24/7, I will call them tomorrow during the daytime.

How long have you been with T-mobile?

I've been with them for 3 years since 2005. I hope that qualifies me as a "loyal" customer. I will update after my phone call tomorrow.

Awww...I'm sorry! I would be upset too!

Which version did you get? The titanium or the red?

I really wanted the gold one, but they no longer have it. How are you liking the phone so far?

i have been with tmo for over 5 years now. i also have two accounts with them. one personal and one family.

it doesnt matter how long you have been with them. a customer is a customer and tmo has always been good about that.

just talk to a manager and you shouldnt have any problems.
