Yes, after the Costco associate takes out the phone, grab it and run out the store with it. If you are fast enough, this will work...

READ

Most of the questions asked here are either in the promotion posting, or are just stupid. Read before posting.

The document tells you which items will be accepted for trade. You can NOT do a IP6, or SE, or Samsung, etc.

It really does not matter how much they give you for the trade. The total rebate you will get will total $580.

Yes, this promotion is for people adding T-Mobile new lines. Duh! Think!

Simple math tells you that trading in an XS or XR is probably not going to make sense in most cases. So, if then don't. Duh!

Nobody has asked yet, but yes the phone must be paid for. And yes it must work. And yes it must not be broken. Duh!

And yes, you must have a Costco card to pay for the phone.

How much does ___ cost at Costco? Easy - go to the website. Prices are listed.

my experience as i got the new phone via this promotion:

my local costco had iphone 11 64gb for 630$.I got the device and activated one line at 60$ with autopay per month.i traded iphone 8 which got trade in value of 145$ and rest 580-145 will come via mastercard.
the tradein credit will be applied after 1st billing cycle.
its a nice deal only if you are getting iphone 11/XR.if you have iphone 6,7,you will get more in mastercard.

Regarding the virtual card, we normally just buy Amazon giftcard with it for the whole amount as we would eventually spend them at Amazon anyways.
The staff in Costco told me that you can change a Physical card online after you get the virtual one.

Do you have to register for the offer once you have purchased the phones from Costco? If so, what is the promo code?

Yes. you will receive directions and the code on a paperwork when you purchase the phones. The code is usually the same for everyone but I don't know what is the current one.

If he does his research he would know that a rebate like this doesn't/hasn't come up two years in a row. It has been every other year so far. And no more than once until last year. There is no pattern to follow.
I think they started the steep iPhone rebates after the iPhone lost it's attractiveness (due to price and other factors). When they sell well there is no need for a good rebate.

Did you provide your trade in phones Imei number to Costco rep ?

The reason I ask is the Costco rep says he doesn't need any trade in details now - and asking me to do that online

Targeted offer for T-Mobile SC customers, who had data stash and I believe either had at least an original 3GB or 4GB of high speed data. There were 2.5 GB customers who got a permanent promo upgrade to 4GB, but those didn't get the upgrade to unlimited.

Thanks. I am one of those 2.5 GB ones. This is data-icst !

Reading comprehension, it's a lost art...
It's not clear because you get a credit up front depending the phone and the rest with the rebate card. Fine print says UP TO $580 after a one time bill credit.

This is nothing new and has repeated with past T-Mobile promotions. The reps give you a fixed value based on the device and the rest through the card.

bottom of page, in "Questions about the iPhone 11 offer?" ... "What do I need to know about this offer?"
that link is for the TM offer, NOT the one from Costco.
