-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.
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.
This is ABSOLUTELY wrong
ANY listed phone, ANY carrier.....as long as its in good condition and not icloud locked

How much for 11 after iPhone 7 trade? If you know thx
I was inquiring about the current deal for the 11, which says I could basically trade in a iPhone 7 or higher and get an iPhone 11, but only when you add a line. Since I'm still on the Simple Choice plan, she said I didn't qualify to add a line and would have to upgrade my plan, and would still have to add a line for the new iPhone.
I have no need for a 5th line, and she said all the lines would have to stay active for 90 days before I could cancel one of them.....even though basically the 5th line would be free with their "add a line, get a line" deal....or the 4th line is on us (with auto pay).
None of the "add/get" or "line on us" stuff made any sense to me, and I didn't have time to spend all day chatting with them. The website says $35 per line for 4 lines with AutoPay and 4th line is free ($140/month). Well, $35 x 4 = $140, so I don't see how that makes the 4th line free.....and I don't have time to get into all that junk about bill credits and stuff.
I'm paying $100 a month for 4 lines with unlimited and 4Gb of high speed each.....and supposedly the now extinct Binge-On. Whether that stuff still exists or not, I don't know. My kids come close to the 4Gb each month, and always seem to be on wi-fi or only using YouTube or some other streaming. If all of that is not supposed to count towards the data cap, I'm not sure how they are coming close to the 4Gb.
I agree it is a typo (for those blowing up right now) but contractually they are bound or they will owe me much more (like 3x + court fees) should they try to ignore me.
I have attached the scan of it for those that don't agree.
GLTA!!!!!

The headache just to gain the cost of a 6s over a 6 is so little that its not really that worth it imo. But GL to you.

EIP is Equipment installment plan. The monthly payments for a device basically
Later on I join my friends family plan (to reduce my monthly bill), will my rebate be in trouble
csr said I have to keep tmobile service for 6 months
He allowed me to sign up the $60 essential plan
I'd love to not get ripped of if I go back for more phones, which I will if Costco has more stock.
Here is how I recall it being broken down. Where did I go wrong?
$50 phone
$36 tax phone
$50 phone
$36 tax phone
$25 activation line 1
$15 activation line 2
$80 plan
$7 insurance line 1
$0 waived insurance line 2
Math adds to 292... I think there was some tax on the activation or something too
Good luck.
