This weekend, T-Mobile is giving away a FREE VOICE LINE! Any T-Mobile plan is eligible (even Simple Choice). New customers need to have two paid lines to get the free line. Current customers with at least two paid lines can just add a free line.

***This is an EXTREMELY RARE No-Stipulation Line (like the free lines offered back in 2016 & 2017...)

If you're new to T-Mobile and you'd like to stack this to get the 4 lines for $120 on the Magenta plan, which comes with a free Netflix account, you'll need to go to T-Mobile today/tonight (Thursday, June 25th) to start/port a 3-line account on the Magenta plan. T-Mobile is currently running a 3rd line free. All 3 lines will be $120, which includes tax.

THEN....

Starting tomorrow, Friday, June 26th, you can add a 4th line to your plan for FREE! This will give you 4 lines on the T-Mobile Magenta plan, which comes with all taxes/fees, unlimited data and a free Netflix account, for $120. IF YOU ARE GOING TO DO THIS... GO TO T-MOBILE NOW TO START THE 3-LINE DEAL FIRST.... DO NOT SIGN UP FOR FOUR LINES THINKING THE 4TH LINE WILL AUTOMATICALLY BE FREE TOMORROW... IT WON'T. 3 lines TODAY, 1 line TOMORROW!

As always, start-up fees may or may not be charged, and can come to $10 per SIM and $20 per activation per line. Ask to see if any of these may be waived.

Details about the 4th line free will be on the website tomorrow (Friday, June 26th), but don't wait to start the first 3 lines today/tonight!

For the Samsung BOGO offer, did you get taxed for both the phones or just 1 phone?
Both. Free basically always means you still have to pay tax on the original value. The only time that doesn't happen is if you were on the ONE plan and all taxes on lines are included. So this promo the lines are free without tax (well in reality T-mobile pays the tax)

Yeah I chatted with T-force yesterday and they said our plan (10SCFM4) is definitely not eligible. I was waiting to to hear from you and tobago_88 to see if you guys actually got the promo status but apparently not. So I didn't waste my spare sim card
The rep was able to restore my spare sim card I activated and also sent a new one to me just in case as she couldn't find out when my spare sim card will expire now. She did offer me 3 free months to use the added line, but I didn't want to keep it if it wasn't a permanent free line. Didn't need the new line anyways, but would of been great to have as a spare.

Any tip on getting one plus promo added to the new free line?

I tried chat with t-force and the rep said he tried to use the legacy system to add it but system kept giving him error code
Went on chat this morning and had rep added one plus promo to free line. Also asked to add it to two other lines that were opened a year or two ago.

Is the iPhone 11 trade-in (w/port) deal still active? I can't find it anywhere on their site. Bonus points if you know whether I can do that deal via Costco.
Try going to TMO from incognito or other private browser. . .

Costco/WA doesn't have that promo right now. Someone a few pages back says he is usually able to get them to price match TMO deals, but that seems very YMMV

I did go there to get the free sim and no activation fee though. . .

There is a feature where is billing amount. turn it on. and you are good to go.
$5 off each line for total 8 lines.

but free line is free unless they stated maximum discount for that free line.

Then if you hit that 8 lines quota of discount, then $5 will be added even it says free .

This time, they did not address the limit amount of free line, therefore, it is REAL Free LOL

the thing is, there's literally no terms stated besides the clear ones like you can't port from t-mobile or any mvno that uses the t-mobile network
Terms given to me when I texted 611 about the iphone 11 promo:

​​​​Not available to port-ins from T-Mobile Prepaid, Metro by T-Mobile, free Google Voice services, MVNOs using T-Mobile's network, or numbers used with T-Mobile service in the last 90 days (known as Winback port ins).

Thank you all for the replies.

So if I need to downsize during the year, do I just lose the 3rd free line, or do I need to pay some retroactive monthly fee?

Lets say I downsize in 6 mos, (I am not under any phone contract), what happens, do I just cancel the 2 (1 paid and 1 free line) and that is it?

Does getting the 3rd line (I have 2 existing TMo lines) require a credit check?
Yes, just cancel the 2 lines (paid and free) and that's it. No credit check for adding lines to your existing account.

Costco probably isn't running this offer (based on membershipwireless.com).

Here's the page, but it appears differently depending on whether you're logged in or not. It seems like they might have removed the port-in requirement, but dropped the trade-in values for the 2nd tier? (or it might be a caching issue for me)

My question was if people had to pay the tax for both the mobile phones (equipment) not for the line. They have charged me $120 for 2 phones.

I have T-Mobile one all in One with one plus Promo
Mine show in 5 minutes

Go to Tforce, tell them change to T-Mobile one all in which is tax included. Yes they can do everything there lol

Apply all promotions, and your bill would come out less.
I pay $16/line unlimited
I have the same plan with the Promo as well. I currently have 5 lines, now 6, with 2 free with this AAL promo. I also have the kickback promos.

i pay around $140... is it this easy to just go to tforce and ask to make the change? do i lose the free lines?
