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

I bought a new phone from boost, would it have the same issue? It's paid off (50)
Check in Swappa esn check and Ting site. If it goes through, mostly it should work. I have also ordered a boost iPhone online. Let's see.

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 in-store.

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

Any advice would be appreciated?

Thanks
I was able to locate a pro 256 and they returned the 64 and replaced it in under an hour. New stock is coming in to various locations in the AM. You just have to call first thing and then race to that kiosk before it get purchased. The number of people in waitline today was much less.

What did the Costco kiosk have to do to swap the phones? Or is it just pure return to Costco and upgrade a the phone at kiosk , just thinking ways to avoid any mess up. I am not happy with my 64gb too. Appreciate if you explain the exact steps you followed

Earlier this week (prior to Thanksgiving), I utilized the promo and opened a new T-Mobile account and added 2 new lines. With the deal continuing till Dec 5th, can I add 2 more lines to the same account with trade-in (iPhone 7's)?

If so, can I combine the rebate offers or should I send them separately (for 2 new lines added prior to Thanksgiving and 2 added lines post Thanksgiving). Thanks for the inputs in advance.

Regarding this

"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."


When i requested Esim, they said my phone was occupied by the new number. I wonder if I remove the sim and add the old number to esim, will it mess things up? Like make it so that the phone is not seen as active with the new number from the offer?
