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

Still kinda on the fence on this deal and hope someone can help. I definitely agree this will save a few hundred bucks, so the math is no problem for me.

Have an att family plan and not looking to switch as TMO reception is not great in my area. Rep said I trade in my old 7 and get an 11, minimum plan is $60+tax per month.

Usually how soon will we get the rebate? Also concerned that it may never come, meaning that each month you have to pray for the rebate to arrive before u cancel the plan. And seems like IMEI submission is still an issue, but it should be resolved in a few days right?

Anyone have this problem. I purchased iPhone 11 pro max green, but the receipt shows iphone 11 64gb but the price as $999.99 plus tax. Will this cause any problem to get the $700 rebate?

Please advice will rep.

Did anyone tried to trade in iPhones with MDM(DEP)? My iPhone is a corporate phone with MDM management. It is carrier unlocked and iCloud unlocked but needs a company id and pw to finish set up. Everything else is in good condition.

Rebate is estimated 4-6 weeks.

If you're in a family plan, you can do what I did and port that number over to TMO. If you don't like the TMO service or their plan, you could always port the number back to your old carrier but only after you're on TMO for at least 90 days.

It seems impossible to find the apple iPhone 11 pro in 256gb. Am I just out of luck? The reps keep telling me that they only stock 64gb at Costco. Are you all really only getting the 64gb?

only if you want them to pay for the phone in person (but they can't actually do it with their credit card, they would have to hand you the cash). otherwise just purchase the phones and give it to them afterwards.

I heard few got bought the phone without trade in phone /IMEI/trade in quote. The rep said buy the phone outright and add the line then comeback later for trade in paperwork. Can someone confirm if they had done this earlier ?

Sure if the promo is still available you don't need to do all at once
