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

Wow you actually got a good price. Did they push for other items for you to add/purchase?

Also, did you port a number from eBay? Or was it your own. Yes, you should be able to remove the sim and send out. Some have been mentioning that some boost phones still have balances owed. But those seem like the pre owned ones
Phone number was ported from Ebay. Snagged an AT&T number there and ported about an hour later at Boost location. Brand new phones for 49.99 w/ 1 month paid as long as it is a port is what they stated.

I bought 2 iPhones yesterday and my Costco service guy told me I have 14 days to return the phones.
How soon can we cancel the line. Costco rep told me today that you need to keep the line for 6 months.

Isn't metro under T-Mobile? I believe these are for new lines (no ports from metro)
What I meant was getting a new line first and then eventually port in (after a new line is open)

It's sold out everwhere, of course. Smilie Thanks though, it's a good price.
I just left there (was going to see if they got any Note10s in). They still have S10, S10+, and Note10+ in stock for tmo at West Des Moines store.

It says Limit 4 per account. I already added 2 lines during the $580 promotion (4 total lines now). Should I be able to add another line or two with this promotion?

I bought a phone at local retailer. And when I checked on T-mobile website for compatibility it says 'This phone is blocked. Contact SPRINT for the phone's status'. Looks like it is a Sprint phone. Can some say if this is eligible for trade-in?

This is quite stupid craziness I would say. T Mobile has the worst coverage and service. Most of the costco have very little inventory of Iphone 11s - and no pro or pro max. Even Iphone 11 is largely 64GB. Whoever got on the deal till now- great for them. Otherwise no point wasting money trekking to costco and waiting there for this.

We ported 4 lines from AT&T to Tmobile last Friday at the Tmobile store. The iphone tradein deal in store was limited to 4 iphones. However, we have a 5th line we need to port and would like to trade in that iphone. Would we be able to go to Costco and take advantage of that deal there for this 5th line?

Your submission has been denied. Here's why:
No/ineligible device found on the receipt



I did upload correct receipt from Costco and also uploaded the IMEI number screenshot
