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

Bought the Iphone 11 Pro Max today for 999 today. Added a line but number is still not ported yet. TMobile is telling me it may take 24hrs for porting a prepaid number. Will that make me ineligible if it gets activated tomorrow? 11/8

Call T-Mobile, and ask if they can patch in their number porting center (I think it may be in the Philippines), and those guys will be able to get it ported over instantly. I had the same issue and called them.

I chatted online Costco chat rep and they said there is stock available, I went to the warehouse (costco local) and that guy is saying he doesn't have stock. I told when I checked, they said there is inventory, the Kiosk guy said "that stock is held out for people who placed a hold online". Can you do that "request for hold online"?
I too had a similar experience

I went back in today to get the shipping label and the worker was clueless. He called up his manager and the manager said to just come back in on Friday when he'll be there. The promo ends today so not sure what will happen.
not all costco reps are knowledgeable and they do mess up the process... Call 611 and explain them the situation.. they will connect you to rebate processing who will then send you a shipping label.. been there done that... no need to panic...

Costco chat is not reliable.. its always better to call the costco store and have them connect you to membership wireless.. once connected, ask them if they have it in stock.. if they say yes, then make sure to tell them to hold it for a reasonable time.. make sure to ask the name of the person that you are talking to and also find what time his/her shift ends... pass a good comment(your voice is so beautiful or you are god send... and i will be there in less than an hour etc..) so that they will remember you when you show up...

Currently you'll have temporary number in your account. Once porting is complete, you will see your original number. Absolutely no issues with the rebate since line addition date will still be today. Make sure to submit the rebate application once porting is done. When you try to submit, even their website mentions the same. I've done this earlier, you will not have any issues.

I activated 2 lines today. If this deal gets extended, can I activate another line later to get the 3rd line Magenta plan free? Or do I need to activate all 3 lines today?
You can get that promotion (3rd line free) as long as it's still active...!!!

actually it's not a problem with Costco chat, it's the problem with the method you mentioned. Lot of people in my area has tried your method and asked to hold the phone for them so we cannot buy one since all the phones are held for them.

Costco chat sees the inventory but people have asked to keep the phone for them and not checked it out for few days.

Great deal, had 3 old 6 series phones that were just collecting dust. The 64 gb 6s models qualified for a $33 bill credit, the rest of the $580 to be received via a prepaid card and the 64 gb 6s plus qualified for a $59 bill credit with the remainder going to a prepaid card. Much better deal than what I was going to get from Apple for trading in my 8 plus phones ($300 each).

Does it matter if the phone is not in my name? Brothers, sisters, mother, fathers phone okay? So long as it works and isn't stolen??
Come on dude, has anyone EVER cared who the iPhone belongs to (as long as it's not blacklisted)?
I mean seriously???
Tell us one thing, where does it show that a iPhone is on X person's name? Pls enlighten us !!!

Just received 2 iPhone 6s I bought. No time for trade-in.

I examined the phones. 1 has quite a few small scratches on screen. Even it does not look good. I guess it probably shall be ok for trade-in. The other one has 2 long scratches. Cross the screen from left to right. The scratches are light at one end but slightly deeper in the other end. I am concerned that the 2nd will be accepted or not.

Anyone has experience with trading phones with scratches?
No big deal... at the most they will reduce the "fair value" by $5 which anyway doesn't matter since we are mainly focussing on the rebate card for most of the value...lol

I am at Costco, and rep said I have to be with T-Mobile at least for 6 months others T-Mobile may charge me back on the cancellation final bill. Is that true? I have also asked whether was this anywhere on the terms and conditions that I am signing up for he said NO. But he was saying T-Mobile asked them to remind each customer availing this offer..should I be worried, as I have no intention of staying with T-Mobile more than three months.
Fake news...!!!
Cancel it after 90 days without any worries...lol

Don't worry, porting is a separate process...adding is a line is already done (which gives you a temp# anyway)! So you are good.
