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

Planning on sending iphone 6s instead of iphone 7.
why would you want to do that? Confused I personally will not as it might ruin the big VC. $700 is a lot of money to me

Better call USPS and check vamshi....we were able to track each USPS step before they got delivered...
Thank you rampen. I called T-Mobile and they confirmed that they received the device. Strange, the tracking still doesn't show anything.

Can someone tell me what is the best way to cancel a line without hurting the T-Mobile account? My current account has 7 lines. I would like to cancel 4 lines.

You can port out using a service like numberbarn or google voice. You can also just use tforce through Facebook or Twitter to cancel it out.

Received $646 rebate today submitted rebate on 12/3 for 11 pro 256. Still need to wait about 12 more days for iPhone 11 submitted 12/15.
Was the iphone 11 pro eligible for this promotion? I thought it was only the iphone 11 and XR.

Well, when you send in the device, you need to place a receipt given by costco rep. And that receipt has these details:

RMA#:
IMEI/MEI/ESN#:
Trade details: (make & model) -
Condition: GOOD

What happens when you ship in a different device? IMEI and Trade details get wrong. In case you send iPhone 6, you have to deal with the rebate team to get the rebate. Whether you get the rebate or not, depends on their DISCRETION.
