So for the same $20 for 1GB you now get 2GB over 4 days. If you were good on using less data per day then you are hosed (I could go 5-6 days on the old pass) - Sorry they made this change. I did just update the wiki to reflect the change. The one POSITIVE is - for each day you have a $5 pass active, inbound and outbound calls are free. Meaning NO 25c (yes that went up from prior 20c a min) for any calls when a pass is active.
At first I thought I would have preferred, but with the introduction of unlimited calling, I think that's a net positive for me as I'm coming over from Verizon and already paying $10/day.
The calling though, does that include calls between included countries as well? When I was last with TMo $.20/min was the rate if I called within country, back home, or to another included country. If this is now included in the daily pass, this is a no brainer for me.

Having just recently come back to using TMo, the interface to adding passes got much worse than a couple of years ago when you could bookmark a URL and quickly add the passes even on the 2G speeds. The last few times it took me many, many, many attempts to get it done from my phone and then ultimately had to go to my laptop to add it. It was so frustrating!

Also I did note a SIMPLER URL to add the daily pass:
https://my.t-mobile.com/odf/DataPass:ALL
Thank you for both of these tips! Both will save me frustration and time!
