T-Mobile is ending a popular customer perk, leaving some users disappointed.
T-Mobile closes the "loophole" that allowed unlimited Google Photos storage.
Unlimited photo storage via Google Photos is no longer available.
T-Mobile's plan was unique because its highest tier included unlimited Google Photos storage at full resolution. This was a welcome option when Google stopped offering complimentary photo storage in June 2021, after five years of unlimited high-quality backups.
Google's free storage is now capped at 15GB. While sufficient for some, T-Mobile offered an attractive solution for those seeking unlimited photo storage.
With enrollment now closed, some T-Mobile customers regret not taking advantage of the offer. However, those still interested in adding the service may have an opportunity. Although it is no longer advertised on the website, signing up might still be possible by contacting T-Mobile's T-Force customer service team via social media. Reports indicate today is the final day to do so, though success may vary.
"Just got the 2TB + Unlimited Photos added by contacting T-Force on Facebook. It's not too late! Today is the last day reps can add it, but some reps are more helpful than others." - BeforeDaybreak, Reddit user, September 2025
Google One for T-Mobile was ideal for those wanting more than a standard Google One membership and preferred carrier billing. T-Mobile is shifting away from being a value-oriented carrier, reportedly aiming for greater efficiency under its new CEO. Ending the Google partnership will reduce overhead and streamline operations. For customers, this signals the end of the Un-carrier era.
