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

It seems iPhone 11 Pro stock is running super low (at the store on Technology drive in Irvine, CA)

I had a cancelled line (which happens about 60 days ago) and found a fine print in terms and condition "If you have cancelled voice lines in past 90 days, reactivate them first." I chatted with TMO rep and she told me that I needed to add 3 lines instead of 2 to take advantage of this promo for 2 phone rebates. (I guess the first newly added line is not eligible.) So I ended up adding 3 lines instead for 2 promo.

Surprisingly Costco had BYOD promo, they give me $125 Costco Card (to be mailed within 14 weeks to my home after I complete an online submission.) I guess I ended up making additional $65 or so assuming I will have to maintain $20 extra for 3 month ;-)
Do you know how low? I was planning to visit that exact location after work.

Yeah, no thanks. Hopefully buying the 128gb 11 if it's in stock.

Is it $700 or $680 at Costco for the 128gb 11 ?
$680, problem is finding it in stock. 64GB is much more common.

Anyone who purchased at boost today and ported from Google voice. What service did did they input. These in store reps seem to not want commissions and just say no we can't do Google.

Yeah, I know. I found that out last year doing the Costco XR promo. Had to settle for 64gb instead of 128gb due to stock issues. I don't want to fall into that trap again if possible.

No a stupid question, unless it's already been answered in this thread multiple times. (It has been)

No not unlocked.

T-mobile will unlock after 40 days.

Dont do the mistake I did. I ordered an iPhone 7 in ebay and got the IMEI number. Waited in Costco line for 2 hours and came to know that they cannot do just with the IMEI number and insisted me to show the physical phone. Learnt the hard way😫
this is a hit and miss depending on the costco you are at. for the 580 promotion, I had my friend in a different state do the purchase for me. I just gave him the IMEI. At the time, He was opening a new account with 5 lines including mine. He and his friends had the devices for the other 4 lines, while I sent him my IMEI.

That said, when a colleague of mine opened an account with the same promotion at a local costco, they asked him to show the trade-in device.

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.
I just purchased the pro. Rep stated it qualified and I got a trade in quote. 64gb only sadly. Stock is running low. I would advise doing it ASAP
