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

Did anyone of you who bought boost iphone 7 we're asked to get 3 month statement from old carrier to be eligible for $49.99 iphone 7 offer?
Get another dealer,i went couple different boost mobile,some asked 3month plus cash,some asked to see the physic phone so they will open the line for me, finally got one really nice 2 phone plus everything is 250cc,she told me every boost mobile have different owner so they have their own policy,so my advice is if you cant accept the deal just find another dealer

I got an iPhone 7 on Straight Talk, but when the Costco rep was choosing Straight Talk as the carrier, it only went up to iPhone 6s Plus, so she picked "Apple Generic" carrier, which then listed the correct phone - iPhone 7 32GB black. The IMEI entered was also correct. Does anyone think that would be a problem?

TIA!
There is no problem with that. I did the $580 and the rep used generic for apple . Got my trade in credits

Deal has been extended. My theory is a mod marked expired but didn't see the wiki or links showing extended deal. No commission means less effort keeping this deal thread alive

Thank the Lord! I was freaking out. I'm planning to do this on Sunday when I drive up to Tulsa for Thanksgiving with the sister. OKC Costco doesn't have TMobile.

Datapoint: I purchased an iPhone 7 from a Boost store and the rep didn't provide a receipt except the one generated from the CC transaction. Furthermore, the tax for the iPhone was charged on the original sale price of $399 and not $49.
Very common, shady reps.

I am in an older plan and wanted to know if I switch my plan to a newer plan like magenta or essential. Will this deal work or do i have to wait? I am planning to switch today and go to boost and pick up a new phone and then on to Costco to get the iphone.

No need for unlocked phone. Just no iCloud,find my iPhone turn off , crack screen or blacklist
I have a phone with good condition (no crack and water damage), but locked on ATT. It seems not blacklisted but have balance with ATT. Can I still use this phone for trade in?

Thank you in advance

I decided to skip boost. I got my 7s from a local dealer who was doing them for 180 each on Black Friday. 590 for 3 after tax.

I got in on the deal yesterday. But they only had iPhone pro 64GB available. My current iPhone 7 is 256GB and is over the 64GB storage already. So I would really need to cut items to get under 64. I have not opened the new phone or sent off any of the rebate info.

I really need a 256GB iPhone pro. I am going to call around to all the costco's today and see if one is instore.

Do you think I can just do a swap for the upgrade? Will it mess up my rebate?

Any advice would be appreciated?

Thanks
