T-Mobile $200 gift card class action lawsuit: Who could be eligible?
Summary
A class action lawsuit has been filed against T-Mobile, alleging the company falsely advertised a promotion offering $200 gift cards for each new phone line purchased. Plaintiff Purya Ghrabeti claims he was told he would receive $400 in gift cards after purchasing two new lines in June 2024, but was later informed by a supervisor that the promotion didn’t exist. Ghrabeti alleges he wouldn’t have made the purchase without the promised incentive and that other customers experienced similar issues. The lawsuit accuses T-Mobile of false advertising and deceptive business practices, claiming the company routinely advertises gift card promotions it doesn’t intend to fulfill. Ghrabeti seeks to represent a class of California consumers who were similarly affected and is requesting a jury trial to seek restitution and injunctive relief. This lawsuit is one of several legal challenges T-Mobile currently faces, including suits from AT&T and Verizon regarding alleged anti-competitive practices and false advertising.
