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 FOLKS

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.
iPhone 8 through Apple gets you $220
iPhone XS through Apple gets you $500

iPhone 8 through this Costco deal gets you $580
iPhone XS through this Costco deal gets you $580

Just saw this deal as a middle banner when you pull down the T-mobile website:https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-pho...ns/magenta

This 3rd line free itself may not be a big deal. But if you have created two lines for two iPhone 11s already, I think you are still qualified to get 3rd line free, correct me if I am wrong.

In a second thought, I guess I may be wrong, otherwise, too good to be true: the 3rd-line-free motivation is to encourage you to create two new lines (with high cost). However, if you have taken advantage of the two lines already (with low cost), I don't think they will give you further incentive. My guess is that you have to add three lines together (without costco promotions) and, then and only then, you will get the 3rd line free. Am I over-concerned there?

=====================
Get a 3rd line free.

New customers who activate 2 qualifying lines of unlimited talk, text, and data on our network, get a 3rd line on us.

Limited time offer; subject to change. For existing single-line or new customers. Qualifying credit and Magenta or Magenta Plus plan required. Credits may take up to 2 bill cycles; credits will stop if you cancel any lines. Limit 1 offer per account.
========================

If you will switch, it may not be a good deal but if you will stay, it is a good one. The only downside is you can not cancel ANY line. In other words, you are permanently bound. To jump future promotions, you often have to cancel lines and move them elsewhere.

Any good option to buy iphone 6s? Marketplace and ebay doesn't seems good.

I have one iphone 6s plus and looking to make 4 lines to max out
As of now, i can think of only "Total Wireless". Cost of iPhone 6s + $50 plans comes around 109+ taxes.

Use Promo Code : NOV25

Also, once you get the device, you can sell the plan on marketplace or ebay to make deal much sweeter.

Also to save additional 4%, buy from some cash back sites.

dont you need this device in possession for doing this deal by Nov 7 - if your local store still has phones remaining? can we do this promotion without having 6s in hand ?

from my experience today, no. You need the trade-in phone's IMEI and they will ask you sign some forms about giving up the ownership and shipping labels.

People still can buy it with the hope of a big BF deal.

My costco said you can only get one $580 rebate no matter how many lines you open, is this true? or is my rep confused?

From my understanding, the $580 should be per trade in, so if I buy 2 iphone 11s, trade in 2 phones, I should get 2 $580 rebates - assuming I submit for it twice each time providing a picture of the imei of each respective iphone.

Nope, I believe that's for when you BYOD.

This may be answered already, but do I need to be a Costco member to get this deal? My wife has Costco membership and I need t mobile line on my name.
To be specific, they did take my Costco card because they needed the membership number during the purchase process of the phones.

That being said, I don't know if the name of the Costco card holder and the T-Mobile account holder has to be the same. I doubt it.

Quote from Xylem2100 :
Probably a dumb question, but does this require a separate trade in for phone you purchase / line you open? IOW, if I wanted to get 4 iPhone 11s, I'd need 4 trade-ins, correct?
yes, one trade in per new phone.

Is it that if we cancel the lines after receiving the GC... We will be charged with amount given on the GC? The Costco rep told me that we need to have the lines for 180 days!!
