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.

Having taken a look at the phones available...looks like the cheapest one on their site is $100. Meaning even if I could find 3 people to sell me them for half that, the profit margin is still pretty low after 2 months of service and line activation charges. Guess this doesn't work for those of us who don't have newer phones. Really should've checked if any of the ones I had were compatible first. Anyone want to buy the 3 AT&T lines I bought on ebay? I'll let em go for a $10 amazon code.

EDIT: sold em

Edit: you can try to sign up with 3 lines (3rd line free) and then after the account is activated, add a 4th line. Can't hurt to see if that added 4th line will magically fall under the free line promotion; likely not but worth a shot.
I thinking of doing that. Wife tried to open up our 2nd TMO account on the 17th, but recently cancelled Sprint account flagged/stopped the signup after hitting the credit check button. . .so not able to grab both free lines "the right way"

I wonder if it did a credit check in that few seconds before throwing up the flag, or if the flag stopped the credit check. If so nothing to lose. Worst case pay $112 a month for 4 lines while waiting on those $250's

Best case, though YMMV and probably gonna spend some time on TForce, Get the 4 for $96 and keep account long term. I got the double dip free lines in June but that account doesn't have the 20% hookup, so $120 for 4.

Well I had issue online since I was sprint customer less than 90days. Went in store today and did port over 2 lines (visible and Att ebay). The rep had to call someone since it showed legacy sprint customer. I asked him will I still be able to port in and do the $250 rebate and said yes. So I went ahead and did it cost 2*$20 support fee +$10 sim. I might add 2 more lines later on. I also had 20% hookup code.

thanks, so if a code is taken will the website tell me?
also, will it tell me if it is 20% code?
should i enter my porting in number on the website for this code? tia
finally after so many refreshes i was able to get one type 1 code on reddit. the code says if it is already taken or not. it also confirms your 20% off in the next screen. now only thing i am worried is the hard pull Confused

you need to enter your new port-in number

I called sprint (888) 211-4727‬
spoke to account services., they completely closed the account (non credit check account). Seems that the non cc account need to be closed off manually in sprint system else it causes issues with T-Mobile

Now waiting for the T-Mobile order support guy to call me back

Your total is $140. According to the thread below, they can get 4 Magenta lines for the total of $96. Looks like we can really get 2 lines for free. Am I missing something here?

The website advertises 4 lines for $160 per month (Magenta plan), which is $40 per line. With one line free (that you got), shouldn't it be $120 per month?
No. Take a look at the cost breakdown in my previous post #646. T-mo and most carriers weigh most of the cost on the first line, and each subsequent line costs less.

EDIT: sold em
The Moto e6 is back in stock on Visible. "$20 Swap deal" $20 (after $5 code) plus anything to send them as trade, and I do mean any phone working or not. . plus one month of Visible included. In reality you are paying $20 for 1 month of VIsible service, plus free phone. So taxes on service is included, and no tax on the phone as it's free. Thread says you need to port in number as well.

Get the phone in 2 days, then send them a junker back. Works on TMO and is unlocked out of the box. I used one to activate free line on us last night.
