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

Just did this promotion and came back home.

Purchased Boost mobile Iphone 7 with 1 month plan for 180$ tax paid.( They gave me a wireless bluetooth headset+screen guard+ case for free)
Went to costco and purchased Iphone 11 pro 64GB for 899$+ 78$ tax. Paid using some gift vouchers i had for 150$.
Added a line on t mobile one for 20$ per month. Will cancel it after 3 months.
Will convert the boost line to T mobile line and will receive 125$ costco cash card tomorrow.
The total paid for the phone is 390$ and i am really happy with it.
From Boost mobile local store or online?

Those are two completely unrelated offers. I added a new line on tmobile which was required for the 700$ promo. The costco rep said i can comeback tomorrow and use the boost mobile line as byod and can use the offer.
correct, you just said it "BYOD", bring your own device. So technically that would clash with the purchase of a new device.

Again, I hope I am wrong but be sure you have the correct info. You don't want to get a low value costco cash card instead of the big $700 promo.


Unless, what the rep meant to say was:
1. New line = $700 promo.
AND
2. Port your boost number to tmobile and qualify for a $125 card (this would be a whole new line as well)

So you'd have 2 new lines.

He paid that much because most boost mobile stores are SHADY.
They probably taxed him on the full price of the iPhone 7 and probably added insurance and a bunch of other crap. He said he got that stuff for 'free' but it's included in that pricing somehow.

The bad thing about boost is that it's the price that THEY say or no deal for you.

According to the Costco live chat all Austin area warehouses only stock the PURPLE version of the 64GB version of iPhone 11. Any chance they will get other colors in stock soon?
Can confirm I just went to two Costco's around here and they only had 64gb purple 11. They said they don't know what new stock is expected either. Hmmm

Seems like they got stock for this deal.
I had checked the stock earlier in the day today and one local costco store had 128gb 11 black in stock.

I went there today at about 6:00 pm and they were all sold out of 128gb

Only have 64gb in the pastel colors.

You guys better buy whatever they have if you don't want to miss this $700 deal.

There are different varieties of the old tmo one plans. Depends which one you have. I have Tmo One All-in, which is capped at 3 lines. Other tmo one plans allow more lines. Ask T-force on Twitter and they will tell you exactly, rather than rely on someone here who has no clue what account plan you have.
Thanks. Wasn't aware of that limitations.

Sounds like they screwed him over. That's why they threw in all of the "free" extras. Most local phone stores are scum.
