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

Costco CSR told me it was 31 days for Unlocking from Tmobile

This is on Costco paperwork which I signed my "Initial"during the time of purchase

For those who want to print the shipping label or check trade in status. But allow 48 hours after the purchase to get the order reflected in tmobile system.

Check the status of your trade-in:
Log in to My T-Mobile.
Select "My PHONE" on the top menu bar.
Select Trade-in status, and then select Track Item or Print shipping label for the phone you're trading in.

Check your assessed device trade-in value:
Go to My T-Mobile and log in to your account.
In the Order Status page, you can review the actual value of your trade-in device.
Click More details to see the assessed value changed details.
You may accept the assessed value of the device or request to have your device returned to you.
Returned devices will ship within 5 business days.
You may keep your new device or return it to T-Mobile.
Did all of this actually work for you?

Both checking the status of trade-in and assessed device trade-in value lead me to a page stating "If you placed an order recently, please allow up to 48 hours for our systems to be updated with your order information. Please come back to check your order status." I purchased the phones 11-2-19 and submitted the rebate 11-6-19.

This is only for the actual t-mobile purchase not via costco.

I bought iPhone 11 Pro and traded in my iPhone 6s. My $580 rebate status still says received. However my mailed trade in has been accepted and they credited me $33 to the bill. Hopefully the rest comes as a prepaid card within their stated time of 6-8 weeks. Hopefully I can unlock my phone after that and port my number out. Will I be able to port to Mint or will they block it?

I was actually wondering depending on the history. Since this seems to be an annual offer, did they have anything similar to this 2018 nov to 2019 September?

Compared to listings on the T-Mobile site, I bet the new deal will have $700 off if trading 7 and up and only $500 off if trading a 6s or 6s+.
