“T-Mobile isn’t just content being your wireless carrier. It now wants to manage your money, too. The company announced today Mobile Money, a free money management service available to anyone with a T-Mobile phone number. It’s not exactly a checking account, but it’s similar. Think of it this way: With T-Mobile’s Mobile Money, your wireless carrier is your bank. T-Mobile retail stores are your banking branches. T-Mobile retail employees are your tellers. And while it sounds bizarre, it’s just another example of a company trying to remove the banks from banking.”
