-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

What should I do now?
Just experienced first hiccup for this promo. Requested unlock on Saturday afternoon and received email that same night about 5 hours later. This morning after 87 hours it was still locked so called 611 and they had to submit unlock request to Apple again, need to wait another 48 hours.
I'm still fighting over a third trade-in that they also say they never received. No statement credit, no rebate card. They straight up said I'm screwed and they don't care because it's not their problem.
A fourth finally went through, but I had to call in and fight for it as well.
I wonder if the people claiming T-Mobile has great service have had to deal with them.

I paid two months bill and asked to unlock. 72 hours after the request, I got en email today telling me the unlock process. I just tried an att sim card, the phone is still locked. The email did say I should wait for 48 hours after email to do the unlocking process. So I guess it's normal? (that I can't unlock it yet).

How do you ship the phones out?
Do you include the small piece of paper that has the traded iPhone details?
Rep on twitter checked and confirmed that both of my phones are eligible for unlok and will receive email in 48 hrs.
And if you did return it, you would NOT get your original phone back.
Color me very confused.
