-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

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?
As long as the newly activated SIM is not inserted into any other phone.
I was able to finally get 4 iPhone 11's from a local Costco (Bay Area). The key was to go there early in the morning.
It took a while but I walked out 4 new iPhones and they were working immediately.
My rep said you have to be Magenta or higher (I did not know if that was the case..) but it's fine, I like that plan anyway. I also got the 4th line free thing so it came out to $140 (w/ auto pay), I am pretty sure.. I will have to make sure I check on this.
Just want to say thanks to the info.
Costco rep confirmed this deal is valid thru 12/5.
First time doing one of these offers. I currently have a iPhone 7, and would like to trade in for the iPhone 11 while adding a new line. The Costco rep told me I need a bring both my iPhone 7 and another 2nd phone to get the offer as I would be deactivating my old line once I turned it in if it wasn't attahed to a phone... This confused me - how do I actually complete this offer? Can the new iPhone 11 be used on my current line (phone number)?
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.

I am not sure I screwed it up but below is my case
1. Got iPhone 11 last week on Magenta Plus ported from Sprint. Trade in iPhone and all good
2. Went yesterday and bought iPhone 11 Pro and asked the guy to add it to my plan. Couldn't got the account info on time and the guy said I can port the number later as well.
3. Came home and today found that He added fresh line for full price. 1st line $85 and 2nd line $85, where it should be $140 together for two lines
4. Called tmobile and asked them to combine both lines
Now Questions
1. Will I lose trade in benefits if I port the number now. The customer support guy is not helpful. If any issues, then I will remove the new line, return the device and start fresh in Costco
tomorrow
2. Will I be losing trade-in benefits for the first line I took.
Please help me out.
The reps had a print-out of their inventory as of this morning. It says it had 5 of 64GB whites, but another person in front of me got 1 of those, so I took the rest :-)
If you limit it to iPhone 11, it seems like they were getting only a handful per day.

I assume the Esim thing only applies to Tmobile phone lines/number -- like put an old/existing
Tmobile line/phone-number to the Esim of the new iPhone 11? Otherwise if I can put Sprint/Verizon line on the Esim, I could use the new Tmobile phone for competitor's lines.
such trade-in lines. You can add additional BOYD lines, through this promo for instance:
