As much as I hate to acknowledge it, I was eligible for the geezer discount.  I never even mentioned it to the young lady assisting me porting my Verizon number over to t-mobile.  The only ID I gave her was my California D/L.  It was all done automatically I guess, the system recognized my age and I am paying $50.00 a month.  Such a deal compared to Verizon.

What are the exact methods to verify eligibility for Magenta 55+ plans in-store?

 

Besides age of verification via government ID, is there any other required methods to verify eligibility when visiting a nearby T-Mobile location?

Appears only valid government-issued IDs are required.

Who's eligible for this plan?

New and existing T-Mobile customers who are 55 years of age or older are eligible. To receive this discount, proof of age is required.

You can sign up by visiting your local T-Mobile store with a government-issued ID, by calling 1-800-T-MOBILE, or by visiting T-Mobile.com.

We accept valid government-issued IDs such as driver’s licenses and passports. For existing customers calling our Team of Experts, we will validate based on the date of birth we have on record.
