• T-Mobile is giving Home Internet Backup and Small Business Internet Backup plans more data.
• Users will get three additional free 130GB data passes a year for when their ISP goes down.
• Once activated, each 130GB pass will vanish after three days or after the data is used up.

T-Mobile’s Home Internet Backup and Small Business Internet Backup plans can help in a pinch when the internet goes out. These plans typically offer up to 130GB of 5G data per month for you to use when your ISP goes down, but that may not be enough during prolonged outages. For those moments, the carrier will now let you extend the amount of monthly data you have three times a year.

In a blog post, T-Mobile announced that starting on November 14, Home Internet Backup and Small Business Internet Backup plans will get three additional free 130GB data passes a year. These passes can be tacked on when your backup plan kicks in to extend the monthly allotted data past 130GB. T-Mobile states that 130GB is enough data to keep a household connected for up to seven days.
