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

Son of a b+#@. After waiting three hours I finally got my iPhones. My rep reassured me several times everything was good for the rebate and he would include the shipping label etc. Get home and they didn't, apparently screwed up accepting the offer on the trade-in. What are my options here? Is this something they can fix or am I going to have to return and miss out.

Go back and get them to fix it. You shouldn't have to return it. Try to avoid that as much as possible because someone else here claimed that cancels the promotion according to their sales person.

They have extended the promotion until 12/5. So technically if you can't go tonight you still have time. If you have the phone number of the rep you should call them and see if they'll be there on the day you're going so he cleans up his own mess. Others may not feel guilty on his behalf.

They're over an hour away so I'll have to go back before the 5th. Thanks for heads up on extension. Felt sorry for the guy, his two coworkers called out and he was on a double. Had tons of people in line waiting. I should have double checked so it's on me. Hopefully they're able to go back and modify the account creation.

You need someone or yourself with Costco membership to enter the warehouse and the wireless rep will need the Costco membership card to scan it to the system. So bring someone that has a Costco membership with you.

If it's just the missing shipping label which he forgot to print and give ; call them and they can email you ; alternately t mobile customer care should be able to do the same .. happened with me on last t mobile promotion and this is how I was able to avoid a trip to Costco

Has anyone been successful without being a costco member? I was told only the member can get the deal, I can't just show up with one.

I'm not sure it expired. I just did this deal and the rebate form said until 12/5.

Btw, at my Costco the iPhone 11 64gb is $630, the 128gb is $680.

Yes my local costco also told the same that promotion is extended till another week. They are not interested to sell phone on this offer unless it is a port in.

They are very reluctant to do this offer and the sales rep saying he can do the 24 month bill credit for that offer
