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.

I see where it says the One plan qualifies. I'm on One Military. Is that included?
Short answer: yes.
I've done this deal previously for my father while I'm the primary account holder.

I just bought iPhone 11. Costco rep said I can only pay for taxes and I have to pay the rest through T-mobile. is this right? I though I have to pay all of through Costco?

Also the form they gave me is different, its telling me I'll get the credit via monthly credits
This is Bill credit. They messed it up. Return it and rebuy paying full price.

For those in the Seattle area, I did an online chat with Costco reps on Sunday and the stores that had TMO iPhone 11 stock were Tukwila, Redmond and Kirkland. None of the Seattle stores had stock. I asked specifically about the 64GB 11 (possible Seattle stores had other versions, but considering how rare they seem to be from this thread, I doubt it).

Also, to clarify a few other things:
1. The rep required that I have the IMEIs of the trade-in phones - he entered them into his system right there at the kiosk
2. The rep also added the $15 monthly insurance to both the phones, even though I didn't ask for it and he never mentioned it until the deal was done. Annoying, but I was able to go online, create my TMO account and then login and cancel the insurance.

The Costco rep also F*** my account he created 2 individual $55 account instead of a Family share plan.​ I had to call T-mobile to combine them

You can set up each line per your preference. I had the old line activated to esim as primary, and new line in physical sim as secondary without iMessage and not share contact information.
What provider was the old line for esim? Last I checked last year Tmo said esim was for prepaid

I wonder what the credit situation is like if the device is financed and not paid in full at time of activation.

So you can cancel one line and add another is what Costco will probably tell me. Don't know if losing a number is worth it. Damn. Otherwise a solid deal

Isn't this a T-Mobile deal? Any reason to do it through Costco? What am I missing?

Answer is simple: there's no credit, device HAS to be paid off (owned by you) in order for them to accept it as trade in.

The new device— not the device being traded in. I wonder if the deal is adjusted to be full price purchases only.

No you'll have to add new line and cancel it after you get rebate (2-3 months of service), if you cancel a line before trying to get this deal you will have to reactivate it anyways (any line less than 90 days old).

Yes you pay full retail (minis any discount given by Costco which is usually $50) plus tax if one is due on each phone before you leave the store.

I have a senior line plan and can have only max 2 lines
