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

Anyone have success in matching employer discount of monthly bill? What is the process?
  • Current employer discount is $12/mo, so Tmobile conversion is $15/month. This is a great discount if it can be stacked.
  • Asked Costco and they said NO and asking Tmobile will invalidate the $550/line rebate.
  • Asked Tmobile store and they said it can't be stacked and must be done at the time of starting the account.

Matched employer discount: If your previous carrier offer employer discount, T-mobile may match that discount (https://www.t-mobile.com/offers/discount-program, bill of previous carrier is required).

Now if only the local stores get some stock before 11/19!!
If store doesn't have stock, they can order from online. If they don't have the color you want, it can be exchanged within 90days. Just buy the same capacity.

Just got back after waiting 1.5 hours at my Costco. I guess too many people trying to take advantage of deal. But as we were making purchase, the guy said we had to keep the line open for 6 months or else he wouldn't get commission and that we might get charged the rebate as a final bill if we quit before 6 months.

I havne't heard this through anyone else....was this guy just lying to me? Or do we have to keep the lines open 6 months or risk losing the rebate?

I was basically opening another line and going to cancel it as soon as the rebate came, figured it was worth the sunk cost of a line relative to the big rebate $.

Thanks for any help - will look to see if I can still do this deal as the guy said it was extended to Nov 19.
Sorry to hear you wasted 1.5 hrs just to back out.
Next time, get some info here before you venture out. This issue has been brought up at least 10-15 times just on this thread alone, not to mention it gets brought up on pretty much every single Costco T-mobile deal.
The combined knowledge of 100's of people here definitely beats those rookie salespeople at the kiosk who will be gone by the time the next promo comes up.

The wiki said the trade-in phone should be paid off.
My att iphone 6s stil has not been paid off yet. Coscto customer check didn't say anything. I will keep the att line anyway because it is still under the monthly credit. Should I paid it off before shipping?

It's totally incorrect. We can cancel anytime after we receive the rebate card. When we signs the paperwork; there is a specific clause that customer can cancel the service at any time and no contract... hope this helps.

If they order it online, then you'll be getting the credit on a monthly basis for 2 years vs a one time payment of $580.

Fingers crossed they bring it back and it's monthly bill credits, going to buy a few SE/6S just in case.
Why an SE?

So if a better deal comes around for BF, how do I undo this? I haven't sent my trade in yet. Call tmobile to cancel the line and then return the phone to costco?

We are eligible for like 12 lines based on the credit check, so do we just go back to costco and start all over with another line? Is this how it was done in previous years?

There are no stocks of iPhone 11 in any of the nearby Costco warehouses. The customer care and the wireless reps are not very helpful in providing if it'll be restocked. Any other way to find out if it'll be restocked or when it'll be restocked?

did that rep just randomly tell you about that rule or did you go and start asking questions about cancelling?
