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

Rep here at Azusa, CA is very helpful...bought 4 phones without giving single IMEI of trade in phones. She said we can give them info within the next 14 days but I heard it's always better to give the info before the promotion ends.
what plan did you sign up and what's monthly cost?

Can someone please confirm if I will get the $700 credit if I port my number to t-mobile as an add-a-line. If yes, how would that work? Thanks!

Guys someone please suggest..I got 3 new iphone from costco..
The rep gave me 3 empty boxes to and asked to send old iphones in those boxes.. now each box has a bar Code in front but i don't know which box belongs to which phone.. Does it matter which box is used.for which old iphone? If yes then how to identify.. if no then why do they have barcodes on box?


Also do I need to send only old iphone?
What about charger, earphones and cable?

Thanks. Just to make sure, what's the deal with providing reps IMEI?

Sorry my reply is not entirely accurate. I think you physically need to have the phone for trade in since you need to provide the imei during paperwork. Once paperwork competed you have 30 days to mail in the trade in phone.

That's why some ppl suggest to get an used iPhone 7 ASAP before you can start this deal.

They ask for imei # of the phone you are trading in. In my case he said he need to see the phone to "inspect".

Go with the newest tech imo. Plus I believe 11 pro is significantly better than xs.

Does the trade-in phone need to be activated or have a number on the line? I'm literally buying an iphone 7 right before walking into costco and I'm not sure if it's a verizon eligible phone for me to pop my number on it.

Are new costco members eligible for this deal? In other words, how many days of costco membership you should have atleast maintained before you are eligible for its discounts in electronics?
I am out of words here
