HTC seems to think this is a-ok. <strong>UPDATED<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>I just tried to order a <a class=\"autolink\" title=\"Click here to read more posts tagged #nexusone\" href=\"http:\/\/gizmodo.com\/tag\/nexusone\/\">nexus one<\/a> from google as an existing T-Mobile customer and found that I was only seeing a $150 subsidy discount. I called T-Mobile and they indicated that I should see the full discount. They patched me through to HTC who then said I will only see the $150 as existing T-Mobile customer and that is the agreement. Looks like some lines are crossed or Google\/HTC are holding existing customers hostage. Needless to say, I&#8217;ll wait around and see if this changes.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Is this an isolated incident, or did you experience a similar problem as an existing T-Mobile customer? What about those of you that switched to T-Mobile for the Nexus One?
