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

Is it necessary to use a newline sim on the purchased iPhone in order to be eligible to get Rebate or it is okay to use my old line sim? Thanks in advance.

I asked if they were putting them on Craigslist, jokingly. And they replied they were going to get them unlocked and resell them in their country (they told me the country) 🤷🏽 ♂️
I love how even without you mentioning the country one can figure it out by nicknames of people who replied to you on this post LMAO

Assuming this promotion is extended...
can I just bring my full paid off tmobile phone on a current line and use that phone as a trade in for the new line? Im thinking to just port out my phone to google then cancel and use the new number for a brief period until I get my rebate and revert to my google line???

I bought a iphone 7 from boost mobile (paid $130 with $50 unlimited line) but when i went to costco, they said there is no stock available. and may be on Friday, 29 they may run the same promotion again because of heavy customer demand. I am planning to go there again on Friday morning and will check if this works.

In worst case if it does't work then what are the possible ways to have this boost unlocked??

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
You should call his manager or Complain to T-Mobile

Need big help here.

I have military line and was upto 6 lines. I was trying to add 7th line at costco but system was not able to.

I called tmobile and added the 7th line thru them and had costco do a upgrade and get the $700 trade in promo.

Would the rebate work? Tmobile rep said it will work but she didn't sound confident.
