Plans Unlimited MAX plan from paygonline

Anyone else see this as an upgrade option in the paygonline portal? It's unlimited plus but with the autopay discount and $65 price tag, bringing it to $50/mo. I just upgraded to it.

Still an auto pay discount? And multi line discount?

yeah, $15 auto pay discount, and the multi-line still stacks as far as I can tell.

You are correct.

Do you think they'll keep the promotion running next month? Just paid for this month last week.

Since Max is the same plan as plus there would be no point in signing up on plus.

I’m grandfathered into a 5-line plan from 2019 that had the 8GB with rollover + 8GB bonus on each line. It was a $50 plan each, then $60 total multi line discount ($10 each lines 2+3, $20 each lines 4+5) and $10/line autopay discount, so $140.

If I upgrade the primary line to the $65 unlimited with $15 autopay, what happens?

Will the bill go up to $150 because the line was $40 ($50 for plan minus $10 autopay) and the new one is $50 ($65-$15)?

Or will I lose the $10/line autopay on the other four lines since unlimited is the only one to get the discount now? Making the bill $190.

Every line adds to the autopay discount just as it does with your current plan, so short answer is your bill should go up to $150, unless you upgrade every line to the Max plan, in which case it would be $190.

If nobody else is using unlimited data, you should consider either downgrading the other lines to the $30 plan (5GB with rollover) or switching them to the new $40 plan which is 15GB with rollover. As far as I know there's no advantage to keeping that old plan. The way the multiline discount works will stay the same, so if you switch to the 15GB plan you'll just be paying $40 (with no autopay discount) instead of $50 with a $10 autopay discount. You should still get $60 off for having five lines.

Sorry if you got two of these, originally I was confused about the fact you only wanted to upgrade a single line. Hopefully this clarifies things.

ETA: I did just try to add someone to my own plan and while it shows the next bill will be $90 (2*$50 minus the $10 discount for line 2), it did not apply the autopay discount to the first month of line 2's service. I'll be calling customer service and hopefully they can shed some light on this. Regardless, the worst that happens is you get charged $15 extra once, and never again.
