TMo pushing hard to close out Q3 with big numbers.

That would be a sweet deal then. I know I added 4 new lines with TMO thru Costco in July. I summited my rebates for $100 each line that same night. Then I ordered 4 new phones from TMO online by doing a upgrade on those lines. Well anyways those lines qualified for T-mobile current promos because it was done within the 14 day remorse period.

I bought 2 iPhone SE 2020 for $200 off each, a one plus 8 for $350 off and a iPhone 11 for $700 off with eligible port in plus trading in a iPhone 8. So most people on Slickdeals told me I would not get both Promo. Anyways I just checked on rebate status yesterday and I was approved for all 4 rebates and it said mailing date was 9-17. I'm pretty stoked about this deal.

2. New line scenarios that don't qualify:
Lines added to the account via COR or BAN-to-BAN moves
Lines converted from NCC/SCNC to normal Postpaid
Lines resumed from cancellation
Lines added after the customer cancels existing lines

3. The offer requires to activate a new line of voice service on any voice rate plan (excluding Select Choice, Value Essentials Voice: Postpaid, and Value Essentials Voice: Business).
Why the Terms of the offer don't list these requirements! This change things a little bit. So the "Essentials" plan do not qualify this time. Last rebate in April it did. I don't know why they call "Value Essentials" when the website simply shows "Essentials".

Do you know what is "COR", "BAN-to-BAN"?

Finally, this is valid if ported-in in-store? Tomorrow is my last billing day with AT&T, I might go to the store to do this deal so I get a SIM card right away instead of shipping.

If I could I would do the "Keep and Switch" offer by buying a phone from AT&T and T-Mobile would pay for it (the balance).

There is a SD thread regarding the 20% off for life and the $200 5G phone rebate deal.
Ahh, you're referring to the type 2/3 code, I would'nt see why that would not apply.

terms for Keep and Switch say:
Submit proof of balance & 90+ days in good standing with carrier within 30 days of port-in

not sure if buying a phone just before switching qualifies for Keep and Switch. I just assumed that the phone needs to be on an installment plan for atleast 90+ days.

BYOD means to use your own device. It simply doesn't make any sense to see it combined with another phone promo at the same time, at least not until the BYOD rebate is approved.
Agreed ,in this case person will keep your phone from Vzw or att and you won't buy a T-Mobile phone so it's still byod.

They gave 2 diff promo process

1) Switch2tmobile for reimbursements of dpp or termination fees
2) Promotions.tmobile.com for promo code offers

Thinking of best possible way to maximize for this deal for Existing customers could be

Offer 1: Add a line in Costco - port form eligible carrier for 2nd offer below($100)
Offer 2: Same will be eligible for $250 switch promo (combined with offer 1)
Offer 3: when coming from Vzw or att with active DPP You would get max if $450 per line (combinable with offer 1 and 2 above)

This will be sweet and can be multiple for multiple line (offer 3 limits 5 per account)

Doing multi lines will reduce monthly cost to be more beneficial


New accounts can do hookup codes and save additional 20% as well.

All the above are excluding today's fee line on us promo (which will be $30 assisted fee if added today through T-Mobile without $100 Costco shop card)
Is it Costco deal in store only?

You may want to clarify what are COR, BAN. NCC, and SCNC on your original post for those people who don't know what are they before this thread is littered with the same question over and over again. Stick Out Tongue

I didn't see this promotion until now. I already opened up a free line at Costco to receive the $100 Costco Cash Card. Could I now port in a number and still be eligible to receive the $250 rebate card while not losing my free line?

Port-in won't affect free line promo. You can try to double dip. Just to make sure you submit both your costco and t-mobile promo requests using your port-in number.

Thanks. Unfortunately I'd already submitted the Costco application with the original number that T-Mobile gave me Frown guess I'm out of luck unless I try resubmitting the form.

I'm in the same boat. We can ask the rep if we can just forgo registering for the Costco $100 rebate and instead, register for the $250 rebate only since the terms says "May not be combined with some offers or discounts (e.g., Carrier Freedom)".

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank luv2ctheworld

I can't seem to find if there is any kind of early termination penalty or requirement to stay on the plan for specific number of days.

Has anyone seen this info?

TIA

What's your plan? I read some people here are attempting to double dip.

I'll wait and see but the important thing to remember is to use the port-in number for both promos since the new before-port-in number created at Costco will be replaced by the port-in number and they may not see the new before-port-in number when validating the rebates at a later date.
