New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Remember that time T-Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS) announced its Carrier Callout and promised to take action if AT&T and Verizon didn't adopt a version of the Un-carrier's Price Lock? Well, T-Mobile keeps its promises.
To hold AT&T and Verizon accountable for recently raising prices anywhere from $6 to $12 a month for some longtime customers, T-Mobile tapped musician, actor and general badass Dee Snider to help let the Carriers know that the Un-carrier heard their silence loud and clear. And so did consumers, businesses and the wireless industry, and they're not gonna take it anymore.
Earlier today, Snider rallied a crowd in Times
Square and gave them their marching orders: join him in belting out "
We're Not Gonna Take It" outside of the AT&T and Verizon storefronts in the heart of New York City. Watch the whole thing unfold here:

"People are clearly fed up with these price hikes, and there's no better global stage for making a statement than Times Square," said Snider. "Raising rates on people isn't just infuriating, it's unnecessary - as T-Mobile has proved."
While AT&T and Verizon have responded to inflation by asking for more money from customers, T-Mobile is helping to tackle it with Price Lock, which guarantees the Un-carrier won't raise rate plan prices even as costs for everything else increase.
T-Mobile isn't alone, either. Providers like Mint Mobile, Ultra
Mobile and UScellular also have price protections in place for their customers. But now, T-Mobile is calling for ALL wireless providers to join the movement. The Un-carrier wants to transform the wireless industry for the better by asking providers to stop raising rate plan prices for customers, because it's the right thing to do - especially in these difficult, inflationary times.
In the meantime, T-Mobile is here to save AT&T and Verizon customers from further frustration. Not only can families and businesses switch and save with T-Mobile, but they also have peace of mind their rate plan price won't go up with T-Mobile's Price Lock.
