TL;DR
- A new leak suggests T-Mobile will push almost all major customer service actions into its T Life app by 2026.
- By November of this year, 92% of upgrades and 85% of new activations are expected to be app-based.
- The aggressive shift risks alienating both customers and employees if the app experience falls short.
Just yesterday, we learned that T-Mobile’s current CEO will be stepping down in November, signaling a shift to an AI-centric, digital-first future. At the time, I suggested this would likely mean customer service would move further away from retail, as well as human reps. Now, a new leak on Reddit suggests this ramp-up is coming sooner rather than later.
According to an internal roadmap released by a disgruntled salesperson, nearly 100% of major customer service actions will be handled through the T Life app by the end of 2026. This includes new account setups, line additions, and upgrades.
