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.

Dang just realized something I got the free line promo and in addition ported two numbers from AT&T to get the $250 rebates. It looks like I lose my free line if I cancel the two AT&T lines to tmobile before a year? Correct me if I'm wrong.

If it makes any difference the two lines I got were added after I got the free line.

I think T-mo pulled a fast one on me. The Magenta 4-line price when placing my order showed $140 with taxes & fees included. But the order details I received today shows $160, with the $20 autopay discount applied.
When a sales rep called me yesterday to confirm my order, she said "Your monthly bill will be $160, taxes and fees included". I figured that was before the autopay discount, so I didn't challenge it.
See attachments.
I am in a similar situation. My order shows $160 instead of $140. I just chatted with an online agent who said not to worry. Once I have autopay setup, my first bill would show $140.

Question about ATT numbers from bay. How do we know the numbers were not on Sprint or T-Mobile for the last 90 days? Thanks.
Anybody knows it? And could you please recommend a seller on bay for ATT numbers? TIA.

Do they track phone numbers like this? I'm under the assumption (with nothing else to base this on) that once a number is port out, it means nothing to them anymore. I wouldn't worry about it as you are porting in an AT&T number per the offer terms and that's all that matters.

Just bought one from re-lux about 30 mins ago. Got a message with the number and details and did the port in on the free line from the other thread and submitted the promo. All within these last 30 minutes.

All I know is earlier experts in this thread answered me that all porting in numbers should be not on Sprint or T-Mobile in the last 90 days to qualify the hook up and $250.

I used seller "dealers _portal" and got limited are codes to choose from. When porting in via Twitter messaging, the T-Force said the port should go through fast since it was a T-Mobile prepaid number. And when I was emailing the seller about area codes, he/she mentioned something about "can I send t-mobile?" when we were hunting for available area codes. When I asked him if he possibly sent me a T-Mobile prepaid number, this person communicated like a juvenile and accused me of trying to scam him over $7.

So then I purchased from "re-lux", just gave my zip code, and was able to get my local area code. Whoever you purchase from, don't go with my first seller.

with the 20% hookup plan, I plan to port 4 numbers, then transfer old lines to it. When can I safely remove the ported 4 numbers and still be able to keep the 3rd line free?
Are you asking about when can you safely change phone numbers via port-in? If so, you can change your phone numbers at any time via port-in and this doesn't affect your free line. The actual phone numbers assigned to each don't really play a role if the free line eligibility.

Presumably you might want to wait until you get the virtual prepaid MC to do this only because the rebates are tied to a port-in number. But if the prepaid MC offer weren't an issue, you can go change the numbers via a port-in whenever you want.

If you're asking about removing/deleting a phone line, you will have to wait 1 year to delete a line in order to keep the free line going forward. I believe you will also always have to have a minimum of 2 paid lines in order to keep any free lines free.

Thanks and repped. So if I don't want to wait for the sim to arrive, I can buy one from the store? or sometimes they may give for free if you have a nice rep.

Yes, go buy one from the store but it's not likely you'll get it for free. If there's an Apple store close by, they have been know to give sim cards away for free especially if you're flashing an iPhone are ask nicely so that could be an option to try.
