MAGAs Are Fuming After Email Confirms They Will Never Get Their $500 Trump Phones or Deposits Back
The T1 'Trump phone' promised a 'Made in the USA' build but left buyers without devices or refunds.

Nearly 600,000 Trump supporters paid £74 ($100) each towards a gold smartphone that, nearly a year on, does not exist.

The Trump Mobile T1 phone was announced in June 2025 by Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump as a patriotic alternative to Apple and Samsung, retailing at £370 ($499) and promising a 'Made in the USA' build.

An estimated 590,000 buyers paid a £74 ($100) deposit to secure one, collectively handing the venture roughly £43.7 million ($59 million). As of May 2026, not a single confirmed customer has received the device. Now, a fresh wave of anger is spreading across MAGA forums after buyers received communication making clear that their money is, for all practical purposes, gone.

Updated Terms Strip Buyers of Guarantees
The clearest signal yet that buyers may never see either a phone or their money came with a revised terms of service published on 6 April 2026. The updated document states explicitly that paying a deposit 'does not constitute a completed purchase and does not create a binding legal contract.' The payment is described as 'a conditional opportunity to buy the device if Trump Mobile eventually chooses to sell it,' with the company retaining all control over whether a phone is produced at all.

3. Oops.

[AZLD4Candidate]

24. Coultergheist is still around?

[Aristus]

4. They voted for a liar and a con man.

And now they’re upset that they were conned and lied to?

Such colossal morons…

[dweller]

5. Im laughing so hard

[dalton99a]

6. Suckers gave their cult leader a $60M gift

[Deuxcents]

7. That's a shame 🙃

[a kennedy]

33. and I can hear Jerry Seinfeld saying it too.

[Jacson6]

8. Somebody has to pay for his swell Ball room. n/t

[Skittles]

9. haha imagine how stupid you would have to be

oh wait - we already know

[sheshe2]

10. Welp

[GoodRaisin]

11. They have larceny in their DNA.

[RedWhiteBlueIsRacist]

12. The phony marketed a phony phone to his phony cult. Not a smartphone, but a dumbphone!

[timms139]

13. He should be

charged with fraud .

[Justice matters.]

18. With frauds

Pedo's been charged with a lot of frauds, and many other crimes.
But never really punished for any (yet), and probably never will.
Only perhaps post-mortem... well, hopefully.

[C Moon]

14. A smart phone for dumb people.

[flvegan]

15. I don't think that's what the email said.

"The clearest signal yet that buyers may never see either a phone or their money came with a revised terms of service published on 6 April 2026. The updated document states explicitly that paying a deposit 'does not constitute a completed purchase and does not create a binding legal contract.' The payment is described as 'a conditional opportunity to buy the device if Trump Mobile eventually chooses to sell it,' with the company retaining all control over whether a phone is produced at all."

"may never see" does not equal "confirms they will never get" BUT, reality doesn't get clicks or smashing of any like buttons or subscribes or reposts or whatever passes for discussion these days.

Are these folks getting ripped off? No doubt. Are they fucking idiots for believing the rapist in chief? Certainly. I'm not sure that headline is what is actually happening. Matter of fact, this same website just as recently posted another article about the Trump phone thing that didn't mention the "never gonna get" the phone/money.

Seems clickbaity. YMMV.

[AZLD4Candidate]

22. Do you normally give cover to Trump on a Democratic website?

Do you have a copy of the actual email? Are you actually claiming fake news on DU?

[flvegan]

28. When you accuse me of something, please be extremely specific.

Especially when you do accuse me of "giving cover to Trump" whatever the fuck that means in context.

I've decided not to alert, because I think this will be more fun. For me.

[AZLD4Candidate]

34. Fake news and clickbait? It's a deposit. The contract is illegal to start if they can keep a deposit

and not give it back upon failure to produce.

Your post sounds like something someone in that odious family would say to give cover for their stealing of money.

Alert all you want if it makes you happy. I stand by my statement. I'm tired of hearing "fake news" and "clickbait" anywhere when it involves this asshole family of goniffs.

[sir pball]

37. The actual terms do say they can get the deposit back, and it will be refunded *if* they cancel the project.

[AZLD4Candidate]

40. George Carlin was right: Whomever coined the phrase "let the buyer beware was probably bleeding from the asshole."

[durablend]

46. He just needs to never cancel the project.

Voila.

"You'll get that phone eventually"

[edhopper]

29. You should reread that

And see it says exactly that they won't get the phones and Trump is keeping their money.
You can't take a deposit and a year later tell the person that you decided it wasn't a deposit.

[sir pball]

36. Per the updated Terms & Conditions, they can get their money back

If you cancel your deposit before completing a purchase, you may request a full refund.[…]If Trump Mobile cancels or discontinues the Device offering prior to sale, Trump Mobile will issue a full refund of the deposit amount paid.

https://trumpmobile.com/device-preorder-deposit

Of course, that's if it's cancelled. They can just keep saying "it's coming out in 6 months" forever…

[edhopper]

38. Exactly

They are stealing the money.

[doublethink]

16. Well Fuck Me !!

Only response I could think of. Sorry.

[AZ8theist]

17. MAGATS are MORONS

But I have empathy, so I'm sending them a TRUCKLOAD of thoughts and prayers:

[EdmondDantes_]

43. What a coincidence. That's also the truck with the Trump phones

[LilElf70]

19. 590 thousand fucking idiots

Gee. I'm surprised there weren't more. Trump has grifted, stolen money and not paid people for services ever since he started his first fake presidency. Did these people not realize how toopid they really were? If I remember, Trump still owes El Paso for a rally in 2017? Many towns are still waiting.

The con? The grifting? The purposeful theft? Now he's after ALL the taxpayers. It's like a game to him.

At this point, I really don't give a shit, and am glad the MAGATS got stuck with the bill again. I'm sure trump pocketed all that money. I wonder what the next con this family is going to come up with. I'm sure they're all laughing on their way to the bank.

[misanthrope]

23. One correction

"Trump has grifted, stolen money and not paid people for services ever since he started his first fake presidency for most of his adult life."

[LilElf70]

32. My bad

I have no idea how that got by me. I was focused on his presidential administrative period.

[misanthrope]

20. Maybe the phones are waiting in their classroom at Trump University

Saps.

[AZLD4Candidate]

21. They'll come up with a new scam tomorrow and these MAGAts will fall for it, because Biden/Obama/Clinton.

[aggiesal]

25. Some of Mierda47's bankruptcies ...

[ColoringFool]

39. Yet Trump Never Went Broke. Imagine That. Just Like The Mob.

[FadedMullet]

26. That's really some fine "fine print"...............

"The payment is described as 'a conditional opportunity to buy the device if Trump Mobile eventually chooses to sell it,' with the company retaining all control over whether a phone is produced at all".

Hey MAGA !! Boy, I bet you feel dumb.

[SamKnause]

27. Good, bleed them dry.

[edhopper]

30. Openly stealing

$59 million with no repercussions.
Nice gig.

[struggle4progress]

31. "We're in the money"

[sinkingfeeling]

35. Headline should read, "Trump's Sons Steal 60 Million Dollars".

[travelingthrulife]

41. 600,000 fools parted from their money.

Ye Gods these people are suckers.

[Talitha]

42. Let 'em cuddle up and cry on their Trump Bears.

[republianmushroom]

44. One is born every minute.

[purr-rat beauty]

45. Womp fucking Womp

Idiots get they want....nothing

But

I am a wee little concerned about the POTUS purposefully defrauding citizens...feels illegal.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

47. There will be litigation on the refundability of the deposits

This form does not expressly provide that the deposit is non-refundable. There may be other contractual provisions that may provide that the refunds are non-refundable but normally the courts will construe such provisions very narrowly.. There will be litigation and trump should be forced to refund these deposits This will be fun to watch


I know that trump is taking the position that the deposits are nonrefundable but there will be litigation on this issue
