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

Thanks for your quick reply. Talked to a Costco manager, seems a memo came out about people canceling. But not sure how a ported number prevent people from just porting out.

The girl at the kiosk did say this is unique to their store.
Since this is costco and they supposedly have good customer service, you might want to insist they don't add that requirement that other costcos don't impose and that's not in the terms and conditions. Up to you if it's worth that hassle

which memo and which canceling? .. Total lie..
No body would have canceled till now because 99% people have not received the rebate yet even from previous $580 rebate and forget about this new getting $700 rebate so early

Sorry if this question has already been answered but I searched the thread and didn't find anything. If I need a total of 8 phones, can I purchase 4 at Costco and go into Tmobile store to get an additional 4 lines via bill credit? Some of the Tmobile telesales rep I talked to said Yes while other retail store reps say no. anyone tried it?

They are pretty rude. Keep telling me about people canceling. And tells me they are not with Costco or t mobile, and Costco manager has no saying in what they do.

It is 4 per account. So 4 at costco and then at TMO, open a new account for another 4.

Iphone 11 pro is a better phone overall, feels better too. but for me it's not worth the premium a 11 is a great phone too. I'd say that Pro is better phone and 11 is better deal.

Precisely, save the money for the next deal, for me 11-128 is good enough

Does any body know if my family used $580 promotion last month for 4 lines then can we add 2 or 3 more lines with this new $700 promotion with same tmobile account?

I am confused because it says limit of 4 per account. But not sure if that limit of 4 is per offer or 4 for total of all offers combined for my tmobile account.

Please suggest.

Went to Costco and got my four lines and four new iphone 11 (128gb) on Tuesday (11/26) last week. Mailed in four Boost iphone 7 (that I bought pre-owned at the Boost website) on Wed. (11/27).

Shipping info show 3 of my 4 iphone7 arrived at the tmobile promo location on Sat. (11/30). Got emails today saying received three $59 credits to my account.

A little worried about the last iphone 7 box. That one still hasn't been delivered!
You only mailed out the phone right? thx

Doesn't work that way as I'm keeping tmobile long term so the cost of 2 accounts at 4 per account is higher than having 8 lines in one account

None of the stores in Houston have any in stock since Sunday. And the rude gals at the kiosk. Come on Costco
