Metro by T-Mobile has released its holiday 2020 offers. Now featured atop of Metro's website are the words "Zero fees to switch to Metro this holiday. No activation fees. No phone rebates needed." The fine print points out that "no phone rebates needed" only applies to Android phones. If you want an iPhone deal, it may require a rebate.
There are now over 10 free phone offers available. Metro is also featuring a new tagline in stores to celebrate the holiday offerings with "Rule Your Holiday." It's a play on the "Rule Your Day" tagline and marketing campaign that they've been running for most of the year. There's also a new 4-lines for $100 offer and an offer of 2 free LG phones with 2 free tablets.
