- I work for the big pink t, and i can confirm that My Faves will work on any phone. The difficulty lies in activating the plan. Employees at a store can’t activate it in their system….Customer service can’t add it if you order it for an existing account over the phone.

“My Faves” Does Not Require A Special Phone

1.12.07Rumor: T-Mobile “My Faves” Doesn’t Require A Special Handset
By
1.11.07- Just a quick tip: T-Mobile is offering a set of plans that allows unlimited calling to five numbers (their “my-faves” plan). However, they advertise that you need to buy a new, compatible phone to receive this service. This is simply not true. Although the service reps claim otherwise, you can actually sign up for the service and simply use the new SIM card you receive in any phone. After confronting several service reps about this, I was told that this is in fact true, but that they are “not supposed to tell anyone.”
Oh, really? Not supposed to tell anyone, eh? Well, we’re telling people. Yep. Of course, it might not be true. That’s why it’s a rumor.
