It's a new fee that started November 3rd.

Not sure why we are being nickeled and dimed.  I am a T-Mobile customer wanting to buy a new phone that is almost $1,000; and I will be charged an additional $35 to “connect” to T-Mobile? This fee is ridiculous and is not a customer service focused. This is Executive Pay focused. I will be going to another carrier. TODAY.

I just did an upgrade through Best Buy in November and wasn't charged an upgrade fee. BTW,  Verizon and AT&T do the same thing.
