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!

Yes you are correct, I am on the 2 for 100$ plan. I was able to add the third line. But each time I try to add another line, there is an issue.

I am wondering if there is a way to change from 2 for 100$ to a regular TMO One Promo plan?
Quote from BOOMGOESTHEDYNAMITE :
If you're asking if you can get your bill stay at $112 prior to kickback and get the 4th free line today then the short answer is no.

At very best, your 4th free line will cost you $16 more (after hookup discounts) since you need to change rate plan.

However, once you change to the regular Tmobile One 2/$120 plan, then you can get the "free" 4th line and ability to add 5-8 more lines in the future. However, you will need an experienced rep b/c everything is grandfathered and it will take a bit of key punches to get it done.

If you got a poor rep who didn't do it correctly, you will have to spend a lot of time fixing it and wishing you never even bother with that 4th "free" line you don't need to begin with. So do you really need this 4th line knowing it's NOT FREE, then go ahead and reach out and hope you get a rep who knows what he/she doing. Good luck

Look for my posts from Friday & Sat b/c i already explained too many times here on this massive thread...
Hi BOOMGOESTHEDYNAMITE

Can you tell me exactly how would I go about this? What is the official name or the code of the new rate plan?
I'm fed up with this plan like you and will like to change as well.

Got bill, and do not see the monthly credits and asked rep why
rep now telling me my plan (TMO ONE) does not qualify for the $350 off XS promo, and thats why credits are not showing up...
Rep escalated issue... which will take 48hrs for them to address and will follow up with me in 48hrs....
This is not good. Freakin bait & switch cuz i wouldnt have ordered phone otherwise....


WTF is going to happen? I cant be the only one in this boat here...

We all have the 2LP plan to begin with. I switched and the new plan became FRLTULFM2, not FRLTUL4LP. Anyway, they're both same price and everything got moved correctly. Now debating whether I should go back to 2LP b/c I don't really need that 4th line but essentially a $18 more (b/c remember Netflix still costs +$2-$5). If someone's really needing the 4th now or soon, I'd JUMP on it for sure.

It's not available online and I assume there's not much stock left. Go to T-Mobile's website, choose the phone [t-mobile.com], and you'll see there's no way to purchase. But you can "Find nearby stores", enter your zip code and it'll list out stores nearby and say which ones have it in stock. You should call the store to confirm stock though.
Thanks . I really screwed up by getting iphone SE. It will be deliver this Friday. I am gonna denied delivery. I hope they will make me re eligible for discounted phone after they receive that damn Iphone SE back lol.

so my simple choice doesn't qualify for the iphone 11 trade in (got mixed messages repeatedly). It's already shipped and coming to me. Tforce is saying they're going to credit me $50 for all the trouble they caused. And offer me the iphone se at 50% off promo. I guess I'll do it, it's like paying for the iphone se for $150. But man, all the time and frustrations this whole thing is causing.
When did you find out that simple choice does not quality for the iphone 11 trade in? I"m on SC and did the 11 deal as well, waiting for sim card and phone to arrive. Was it that you didn't get the bill credits?

I think some of those with FRLTUL2LP tried to switch to FRLTUL4LP with varying degrees of success. I believe the ones that were able to do the switch have to pay more per month, like $16 or so. I too am on FRLTUL2LP and on the fence about bailing too.
If it's only $16 for a total of 4 lines, I would do it. But I'm not hopeful with the clusterf*** of a mess 611 rep made to my account!

Yea, I keep seeing people posting that they can see the promo in their EIP tmobile account. And also saying simple choice doesn't qualify based on the FAQs. My EIP isn't showing any promo at all, just straight up plan payments for 24 months. I've also been asking several reps on tmobile about it, and they all said the same thing - that simple choice doesn't qualify. They keep telling me theyll get back to me in 24-48 hours. I got tired of waiting, so I just keep contacting them through various means. I guess this last twitter encounter ended with this conclusion of mine.

I guess you did not pay attention to details of what plan is qualified for the $350 off XS promo. Here is the copy from their site:
Which rate plans qualify for this iPhone offer?
Magenta®, Magenta® Plus, Essentials, Magenta® Unlimited 55, Magenta® Plus Unlimited 55, Magenta® First Responder, Magenta® Plus First Responder, Magenta® Military, and Magenta® Plus Military rate plans.
i really didnt look bc rep was offering it to me. didnt really think they trying to F* me over, but then again this isnt the first time this happened with tmo lol. i was adding free line and rep then ask if i needed a phone. I asked her what iphones on sale now that i can get. told me iphone11, XS, and SE promos. picked XS and rep even advised I would be getting 14.58 monthly credits. Lucky this was text and i got the screenshot as proof. Hopefully they will be honoring otherwise will probably return.

I was able to get the iPhone 11 when my SE was still in transit. You can still try to get the phone you want, they would suspend the free number on the SE and reinstate it to the phone you are ordering. Once they receive the SE back they will refund the upfront cost you paid.

My friend added the free line on his account and wanted the One Plus 7T, called the store and they checked the entire district. None were available, but he was told to come to the store and they will get it shipped to home and also waive the shipping charge. If you are calling to ask the stores if they have the One Plus 7T in stock and they don't , ask if they can order it for you to ship at home if you pop into their store.

Yea I really want the 4th line for free but my plan is lock down to only 3 lines. They offered to switch me to magenta but I refused since I'll almost have to pay double what I'm paying now.

Anyone else with the "FRLTUL2LP" plan? I tried to search through this thread but it's over 2xx pages!

Success rate is about 50:50 from what I've read. A lot of reps refused to move you over to grandfathered plan b/c it did require a lot of "searching" and knowing how to code their back end system. Some decided to just move over to Magenta and be done with.

I lucked out and got my 2nd rep who was there for a long time and explained thoroughly to me the difference b/t LP4 and FM2 yada yada... totally knew what she was doing.The first rep I got whom I immediately said "thanks and bye" b/c he TOLD ME no such deal as free line, only BOGO even after I quoted the 20Q23 promo. He read and told me yep, his understanding was BOGO.

So yeah if you have time and patience ...
