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

Are you talking about Venmo?
Remove which bank info? Both depositing bank and Rebate card (in that order?)
nothing about Venmo... all done from the rebate card company site. mine was wirecard.com

when you get your rebate card message of approval (usually text msg from T-Mo), you click the link they give and then activate your rebate card. it does ask you which phone number you are (not sure if it matters to match previous documented or not).

on the same site of the rebate card you can see your balance. there is a 'Access$' tab or even on the dashboard tab. it will say 'Transfer'
it will ask you for your bank routing info. it will then ask you how much to transfer.

done. no fees.

if you have multiple rebate cards to drain, you need to remove your bank info each time after you initiate the transfer of funds. you cannot have your bank info attached to more than one rebate card account at the same time. to remove it, do the same procedure, but this time it will already show your bank info. just remove it.

So I did a chat with Costco before leaving work. Local store was fully stocked, minimum 30 regular iPhone 11 and a few pros. Get to the spot, 3 people with stacks of 4. Rep tells me he's sold out. 🤦🏽 ♂️
Northern NJ area.
Thank you to the resellers.

After you apply for rebate, wireless rep doesn't let you return the phone, Inspite of that if you return, you might get black listed by Costco, so not a good idea to try...

"Up to $700 Back via Rebate (One Time Bill Credit + Virtual Prepaid Card)"

How much of the rebate is given as bill credit and how much is given as rebate card?

I read through first page couple of pages, but still unclear.

Say if I trade in iPhone 7, I am eligible for 700 rebate. Assuming I bought a phone prices above 700, (say 800), would I get 700 is rebate card ? If yes, then what is bill credit?
