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

If you have a 3rd party replacement screen, does that kill the trade in?

Can I open a new line with new number and then maybe a month later port in my metro number to replace the new number? Assuming that metro port-in won't work for this deal.

Here's the info sheet
Nice! Thanks.

I need to jump off the free sprint train. Does tmo have affordable plans for 4-5 lines that are compatible with this offer? Need a lot of data or unlimited

Sort of...

If you get the phone delivered or ordered, you will get your bill credits over 24 months.
If you get your phone in stock at the costco, you will get a MasterCard rebate in 2-3 months.
Thanks but where is that specified?

I tried yesterday. They refused to do.
Me too, how can we go around this? Maybe open a new account and port the numbers to the new account?

So I want use the new phone with my actual line/number but I don't want to jeopardize not getting the rebate by swapping SIM cards.

Should I just put my old line on the esim and keep new line on the physical sim since that's the IMEI on the rebate? Has anyone done this?
I Think this should work. I did it last year. Let them Put the New SIM in your new phone. Once you go home, swap the SIM Yourself. Worked like a charm.
