1. TCB advertises $75/line but tracks at $50/line, and est payable wait is 14-15 weeks. BF advertises $50/line and est payable wait is 3 months.
2. You can place an order for 2 lines.
3. Many of us used the Shared Data 3GB and got the $250 without problems. The terms only require a plan with voice & data.
Thank you very much for confirmation.
I was able to build a cart and add 2 lines. I'm getting a $10.40 discount which I believe is the employee discount. So my monthly before taxes is about $70. Which I guess will take care of most of the taxes.

I don't have a TCB account. I have BF Raku and Ibotta.

I also see I have a chase offer of $35 credit for 2 payments of $15 or more. Which expires in 40 days. I guess I could use that as well! Pay 1st bill in 2 half's.
So all in all I will net make about over $400! Does that sound right?

Now I need to talk to sprint and see if they will let me port out of a cancelled account. Any experience With that?

1. I have a Chase Freedom card since 2012 but never got that AT&T offer while other people do.
2. Sorry, no experience with that. You can buy Boost phone numbers on Ebay to port in. I did.

I hope the other early adopters are having better luck than I am. I activated service for my one and only line on 5/19. My account doesn't show up in Reward Center at all. The first representative I talked to said I had to wait until the 60th day of service to file a missing promotion claim even though this is a 45 day promo. I tried switching gears and using the online chat option on Monday. The CSR said she manually added me, but I still haven't seen any progress on my gift card. Anyone else experience a similar run around? Advice would be appreciated before I go for Round 4.

You won't see anything there until a rep had submitted your rewards. Have you ever contacted the Reward Center about your GCs? If not, see my post above about contacting them using Chat.
ugh.. so I have to manually contact them after 6 weeks of activation?? ATT makes this so hard.
I activated more than 2 months ago. Called today and rebate will be processed in 2 weeks, 5 more days to ship.

Also fought with rep hard to get the credit for the 1st month HUGE bill. Rep told me Autopay discount does not kick in until 2nd bill, which doesn't make sense. LOL

Apparently I had better luck than you do. I activated acct #1 with 4 lines on 5/6 and acct #2 with 2 lines on 5/27. I contacted Reward Center Chat after 35 to 40 days, and the reps submitted my rewards without any problems. See the timelines below. Most other members had a similar timeline, although some ran into delays.

I am trying to port my wife's sprint number to this deal. My sprint billing cycle ends today (7/16). If I open the account online to port the number in and waiting the SIM from mail, will I get the number ported out from sprint today and stop another month sprint bill?
Also, att account is my name, sprint is my wife name. Is there any issue on porting?

Porting doesn't happen until you rcvd the SIM and activate it. So it might be too late, they do ship overnight but still a day or two in process if order not canceled.

I got a credit on the first bill, too. Ridiculous to say the least. I can't believe people actually stay with ATT wireless by choice. That is insane to me.

I don't use cell service much, less than 100 talk minutes, 100 texts, and 100MB per month, so I use Tracfone. TF has its issues but it's expected because they're "low-rent" and I know how to deal with them.

Since mid-March until yesterday, I signed up with T-mo, Sprint, and AT&T to do their deals. For such big corporations, I was surprised that they have so many issues too. AT&T is the worst: cancelled orders, splitting lines into multiple plans, late bills, wrong bill amounts, etc. Sprint is not as bad with billing, but is very bad about denying/missing referral rewards and sign-up rebates, not paying out cb. T-mo is the best of the bunch, has some billing issues but quickly resolved, and the rewards were promptly and correctly issued.

T-Mo is who i use. Amazing customer service that other companies need to learn from. And the whole all-in thing is amazing. No surprise shock at the bill, which companies need to also copy.

Anyone facing order cancelation for single line? I placed order for sim and it got canceled. Spoke to rep on chat and phone, nothing helped. I have been told everything is fine.
I've been rejected three times - twice on email addresses approved as eligible for "Signature" discounts. The third time I used my email address from being a long-time DirecTV Now subscriber.

This is so ridiculous I want to file an FCC complaint for false advertising of this promotion - gathering up ridiculous amount of personal information including SSN and then claiming I am not the actual person ordering from them.

How much profit can you make on this 2 line $250 each line after all expenses?
Reading the posts, it looks like a lot of headache and possibilities of things not working out.

From what I understand it is two rebates per account - spend about $200 over two months for a payout of $500. I would open an account for me and another for my wife but they are absolutely insane in terms of random delayed cancellations. Hard credit report pull required.

Delayed cancellations means you're out of pocket for the month or more of service I assume.........correct?

Already passing 45-days mark and there is no email for rebate promotion. Chatted with AT&T reward center. An employee called Carlos indeed located my order but refused to add my 2 lines to rebate tracking system, as he insisted they could not manually add rebate before 60 days. I knew it is a lie but he would not budge. What are my other venues to escalate the issue? I don't want to pay a 3rd-month bill.
