The store rep told me she could do the one-line service as BYOD, I just need to bring in the compatible phone so she can get its IMEI. In that case, there's no hardware fees involved in the cancellation.
Hopefully that works. From my experience (and from what I was told by several reps, but idk how accurate the information is) there is a certain amount of time (~14 days?? I don't remember) your account has to be open before you can make modifications (i.e. adding a new line) without issues. I was able to open an account with no problems, but when I tried to add a new line I had to go to the store.

Gotcha! So your plan is to open an account with one BYOD line, go home and order more lines, and then cancel the original line that you opened in-store?
I ran my usual spreadsheet and the profit isn't so great with the plan to add one-line BYOD in-store and 3 more BYOD lines online. My spreadsheet info is based on these assumptions:
- Buy 4 phone numbers on Ebay.
- There's a $20 charge for SIM & Activation when done in-store. At least that's what I found on a quick search.
- Have to pay for 3 months of service by the time the GCs are received.
- BF c.b. is per account, not per line.
- Using the Share 3GB Plan, which appears to have a limit of 4 lines, and costs $120 + $30 for taxes & fees (high estimate).

When did you place your order? Did they provide a tracking number?
I placed my order on Friday 5/1. It showed an estimated Delivery Date of 5/5-5/7. The next day, Sat 5/3, they cancelled the order.

That's my low-end estimate, since it was never specified by BF whether it's per account or per line.

Ppl said their online order got cancelled, so two ways to open a New Account if you are new to ATT Wireless Service
Hard pull for opening new account

1) once you placed the order online, call the e-Comm ATT number 866-267-4510 to confirm your order with them(should calling the number before/while ordering b/c of on hold time. Check porting status to correct errors. Order won't shipped until correction.
btw, ATT separates in store promo vs online promo, if you have any problems with online promo, call e-comm number for help, going to ATT corp store wont help

There are DPs confirming route 2 not workable

2)open a new account in store with one voice line, and then go home to create an ATT online account that you can manage account/plan/lines, to add more lines since this online only promo works for adding a line to NEW/EXISTING account as long as it is a BYOP voice line
DO NOT Cancel before you are approved for more lines, cancelling this line in a single-line account will also cancel your account.
after you see that at least one of your online lines are added/pending on your account, cancel the line that is opened in store, no activation fee or full refund on activation fee if cancel within 3 days of activation, cost for first month service will be prorated according to service days used. Usually no service fee if cancel within 3 days of activation, ATT have 14 days return policy, so I believe you are golden if canceling the in store line before 14 days of activation, either paying no fees or prorated fees, btw, you can try to get ALL fees waived for this cancelled line by calling ATT customer care.
Worst case would be you will pay $30 in store activation fee + prorated service charges by service days used for the ATT in store line.

800-675-8459 to check reward status after reward card submission

EDIT 4:
To make this offer works, I believe you must have an unique phone/IMEI for each line, must insert sim to phone so ATT can recognize your BYOD phone IMEI.
Do not upgrade your phone to get the ATT IPhone SE deal b/c $250 is a BYOD deal, you MAY or MAY NOT upgrade after 45 days(to receive redemption, but you must also the instructions you received to get the reward card)
I recommend that do not upgrade your phone until you actually receive the reward card.

EDIT:
Think about impact on the CB if you go route 2, maybe lower/no CB.
rk10 excludes cb for $250 reward
tcb offers $75 for new line activation, $50 for add a line, no details on exclusions/limitations
bf offers $50 for new line activation and add a line, it seems bf is a better approach to me.

EDIT 2: (your order is shipped)
ATT CS: 800.331.0500 this is the number ATT give out to customers if they have problem with order
ATT E-comm backdoor number: 866-267-4510 (every thing about online order or online promo, you can check to see if $250 reward card per account or per line or any limitations on this promo such as up to X lines per account, currently no limitations, but they may set limitations once they realize many ppl are joining ATT)
Check Reward status after submission: 800-675-8459
Check number transfer eligibility: https://www.att.com/wireless/tran...ur-number/
Porting Support: 1-888-898-7685 to initiate porting or push it through early
Check ATT porting status: https://www.att.com/port/

PS: Feel welcome if you want to add it to wiki lol if you think this is helpful

Good for you, fellow Viet. At least the deal is working for some people. Boost numbers don't appear to be the issue.
