Rough Math
Example 1: Single line w/ used 6s+port in
Assume iPhone 6s trade in and port in your number that has a current monthly rate of $30/month, Further assume you only have a single line
you essentially will spend net $170 and gave up (trade in) that iPhone 6s, but get an iPhone 11 after three months at T-Mobile (Magenta, $70/month). More line will result in better saving. Detailed calculation is elaborated in this post:
https://slickdeals.net/forums/showpost.php?p=
Example 2: Buy and sell
$ 560 - 4 used Iphones 6s ($140) from Amazon
$ 420 - 3 Months of Magenta Plan for 4 lines ($140 w/ 3rd line free)
$2750 - 4 Iphones 11 64 GB inc tax ($687.5. $630 if no tax)
______
$3730 Out of pocket (Sum above)
-2320 Rebates ($580x4)
-2000 Sell 4 Iphones 11, 3 months later ($500 after seller fee)
= $ 590 Profit
$80 Iphone 6S from TotalWireless https://shop.totalwirel

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 XS through Apple gets you $500
iPhone 8 through this Costco deal gets you $580
iPhone XS through this Costco deal gets you $580

***After you receive the card
1. Add the card to your trusted friend/family 's Venmo account,
2. Tell them to send the full amount in the card to you via Venmo
3. wah-lah is in your balance, you can use it / withdrawal it to your bank
P.S there's no fee of any sort doing this
So it's not a clean deal.
So it's not a clean deal.
If I understand the guide, if you don't have tmobile or an iphone 6s:
Costs:
1x Iphone 6x $140
1x Iphone 11 64GB $700
1x 3month Magenta Plan 3*$70: $210
1x -$580 Rebate card
Total cost:
$700 + $140 + $210 - $580 = $470 ?
Oh and the phone is locked until you ask for an unlock code?

Get a brand new Total Wireless iphone 6s for 150 at BestBuy (I wont activate and I assume they allow tradein of locked phones)
Buy an iPhone 11 at Costco for 593$ after trade-in
Get a T-Mobile plan 60$ pm (I just need 1 phone) that's 60*3 months = 180$
Prepaid card for 544$
That puts my iphone 11 cost at 379$
I know it's not that slick as others seem to have gotten it for much less price. Is my math correct atleast?
"How to redeem your offer: 1. To receive this offer, you must buy a new Apple iPhone 11, ... and use the device on your new line of T-Mobile service." stated on the first page of one document with your Costco iPhone purchase, control number: 232423961834.
And previous promo stated: "to receive this offer, ... and use the device with T-Mobile service and add at least 1 new line." No mentioning of using new device on the new line in entire t&c. To be safe, I will have my new device on the new line until rebate approved this time.
What can I do?

Ask them to refund rebuy and print you the labels if they can't print it after the fact

1. iPhone 6s: people may have a used phone or can buy it cheaply say below $100. $140 is the expensive side. Let's say the fair price should be $100
2. iPhone 11: the Coscto price is 630, 10% off the MSRP
3. 3month Magenta: I would suggest to port in your current number so you don't double pay two phone lines. Say, if your current price is $30, then your net pay for 3 month is 3*($70-$30)=$120
So, the new number should be:
$630 + $100 + $120 -$580= $270.
Make sense? Don't rush to jump simply because it is a deal for others. If you don't have a trade in or you can't port in, it may not be a deal for you.
