Jeez...

-Simple Choice is NOT eligible. No, your account isn't special. It won't work. You have to change plans

-If you don't walk out of the store w/ the new Iphone in your hand, you will get bill credits. Which means you are stuck for 2 years and the extra you're paying for the line lessens this deal.

-Deal is $500 rebate for 6s phones, $700 for iPhone 7 and beyond. If you have an iPhone 6 or lower, you're getting no rebate. End of story. There are no loopholes or "what ifs".

-Phone screen can't be cracked. Not a "what about a little crack in the corner" comment. It will be rejected. Same goes for "what about a home button not working." Try it, but don't be surprised when it gets rejected. It's your $700 gamble. Stop asking if it will work.

-If your screen is cracked, get it fixed by a 3rd party place before sending in. It's typically less than $100

-Phone can be unlocked after 40 days w/ a request to Tmobile, and then used with any wireless service.

-Can't cancel line until you get your rebate; then go ahead and cancel or port out. Rebate takes 2-3 months to get

-Phone supports dual sim, so put your current ph# on the Esim (just go to a Tmobile store and ask) and the sim card with your new # in the phone. Yes, you can now have 2 numbers on new iPhones. Then you don't risk the phone # not being active while waiting for the rebate.

-If you want a cheap iPhone 7, look on the internet. Don't be lazy. Otherwise try a boost mobile store and read the "instore promo" offers on their website. Some are shady, so ask everything they're charging you for.

-Lastly, don't trust the Costco wireless reps. Hundreds of people here have done this and similar deals. They know better than any rep you will meet, as they've all done these deals.
Please make sure that you buy the phone outright, meaning limited colors and storage options.

My local store didn't have the iPhone 11 in stock and I was told I'd still get the GC rebate. After reading all the paperwork, when I got home, this isn't the case. Had to go back to cancel the line and wait for the phone shipment to arrive to go back and return that (which you have to mail yourself with the label provided). 2 weeks later, EIP is still on my account.
You are talking CRAP.....stop telling untruths.

This is ABSOLUTELY wrong

ANY listed phone, ANY carrier.....as long as its in good condition and not icloud locked

All the people that are complaining that they got on $580 deal earlier and are now regretting it. I mean it is common sense that 100% tmobile is gonna have a better deal around bf... most likely the infamous $700-$750 deal... so why not wait another week. I waited and there's reason most people did too.
Yea, I think they will have a $750 deal since this ends on the 27th. I'm currently here now so I can get a pro. Very little stock.

Those who traded in 6s/6s plus will not regret right? Because they got 580$. Now its just 500.

So if my Costco doesn't have T-Mobile, I'm out of luck, right?

I have a iPhone 8 to trade. Already on a t-mobile plan. So I can just add another line, trade in my 8, get $700 gc and cancel the new line after a few billing cycles? This sounds to good to be true.

Purple iPhones are not entered into Tmobile system so submission throws below error

"The device IMEI entered is not eligible for this promotion, please re-enter or contact 1-877-470-3619 for details."

I called the promotions department and they're aware of the issues with the rebate submission of Purple iPhones. They just made a note on my account that it was tmobiles fault and asked me to try again after 2-3 business days.

Did anyone else had this issue?

Let us know if they allow the PRO. On tmobile's page, it allows the PRO but costco's wireless page does no have that mentioned.

Do you know current costco prices for 11 pro, pro max for 64 gig? I know 11 (128) is now $680.

This totally sucks because it will delay the rebate processing! My Costco only stocks the Purple color. Standing in line, 2+ hr wait!!! And now the bad news with Purple... maybe i should just give up Frown
