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

try another costco where rep is not a new joiner/willing/know how to do...or just handwrite the update and let assurance adjust your trade in amount...

My agent didn't enter my trade in imei. I'm not sure what to do as he didn't provide any papers besides going to the website and filling out the promo. Just added the line and scanned the imei of the phone and that's it.

I want to activate the new iPhone 11, but don't want to enter my apple ID yet. Does anyone know if select T-mobile network on 'choose a network' startup page, that would activate it? I want to start the 40 days clock to unlock the phone.

How do you know your phone is already unlocked?
Also, I thought you had to make a call/text to activate the line to be eligible for the rebate. Am I wrong?

Well I've doing two deals. One that ended on the 7th of October for the 350 dollars off iPhones. This is something that me and corporate are working together on, but they managed to unlock the iPhone. This deal I'm still waiting to get approval for but they should unlock it after Costco fixes my trade in info stuff

Yes, they printed out a "T-Mobile Costco 2019 iPhone Active Trade Save Promotion" paperwork with the information. It lists the offer requirements, and on my paper I had to initialize a "Customer Initials" checkbox, and then sign and date it on the second page. The kiosk agent highlighted the model I was trading in the paper (6S), and circled the "Total Offer Value Received" of $580.

This was all stapled together on the same pages as initials for their privacy policy, service terms, etc.

At the bottom of the page specific to the promotion it says:

How to Redeem Your Officer:

1.​ To receive this offer, you must buy a new Apple iPHone 11, 11 Pro, 11 Pro Max, XR, XS, XS Max and use the device on your new line of T-Mobile service.
2. Trade-in an eligible device.
3. Go to http://www.T-Mobile.com/Promotions within 30 days from date of device purchase.
4. Enter all required fields AND:
- Promo Code: COSTCO2019APPLETRADE
- IMEI of purchased device (Please dial *#06# from your handset to obtain)
5. Upload a copy of your purchase receipt (for Costco Warehouse customers)
6. Upload an image of your device box IMEI.

Note: You will log in to redeem your rebate using your T-Mobile ID.


I completed that process earlier this morning, pretty simple. You "should" have this paperwork as well I would think...
When the sale representative printed out the paper and label. She told me to create T mobile account before submit the rebate. Is it something necessary? please advice if I should create a t mobile account first, if yes, any instruction?

Regarding unlock, never did that with Tmobile. I have done ATT unlock by putting phone number, pin and IMEI of the phone, they eventually approved the unlock. How does Tmobile unlock request works? Can that be done by the system without involving their staff or have to talk to them for unlock?

Craigslist. I haggled down to $100 a lot of people want $150+. Even resellers are aware of the trade in and holding firm at $130. If it gets extended I'd just buy from one of the prepaid vendors.
