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.

I'm headed to the Tmo store now to see if they can open an account for me since their website wont. I expect to pay $20 assist fee and $10 for the sim, then when I get home I will set up my online account and add three lines. I'll have to wait for the sims before I can activate these three lines, possibly a week. Or would it be better to try to buy sims in store?

Does this sound about right? Do I need a code instore for the 250 promo?

I could have placed it online too but wanted them to confirm eligibility. Seems like they have some specific flags for the Sprint issue.

Where did you stop when placing an online order yourself? I got the error after the credit check saying I'm a current sprint customer.

I hope your are looking for T-Mobile port in. If yes, search for AT&T port in numbers at eBay. Boost numbers are eligible for AT&T port in deal.

I purchased from below seller for AT&T no and it was delivered within 10 minutes.

Going to post my experience.

Since I wasn't able to take advantage due to Sprint curse even after going to an T-Mobile store to get it sorted out, had a fam member open an account for me. Went to T-Mobile store and asked rep to open a new account to take advantage of the $250 port in from ATT, Verizon, ect. for each line. Rep took a minute to go over all the details on her tablet. Trying to peek myself but she was very protective and only read out loud the terms and conditions, no red flags so I proceeded to get Magenta plan 4 lines. She insisted on having the phones with me but gave her my Pixel 3 and just told her all 4 lines would have the Pixel 3, she verified Pixel 3 was unlocked by inserting a T-Mobile SIM then proceeded with Credit check and opened an account with temporary numbers in case one of the port-ins had issues. Immediately after activating all temporary lines she started port-in from ebay and all 4 lines went through successfully, help me create a T-Mobile account and help submit rebate using code 2020BYOD1 for all 4 lines. She even called her manager to take off 2 Assisted Support fee after telling her we tried opening an account ourselves and ran into issues and ended up paying $61.90 to start service, 4 SIM activated and ported, and 4 rebate promotions submitted. Can't complain. Just wainting for the 20% hookup insider code to be sent via txt or to be applied on first bill hopefully.

IIRC she read out all the plans that were excluded and only remember her saying Simple Choice, Carrier Freedom, Essential Value excluded which is different from Essentials, and few others that i don't recall. To play it safe I just got Magenta.

Edit: Once I got home I inserted all 4 SIMs to the LG Tribute Empires that were unlocked from Sprint.
What problem did you run into when you visited a tmobile store to sort it out for the first time?

Does the numbers have zipcode associated with them?

You only get to select area code...and the seller gives you phone number, acct number and pin.
That seller (like others) will send you the phone number, acct #, PIN. That's all the T-mo rep will ask for to port in a number. No zip code, address, name, SSN, etc.

T-Mobile couldn't delete or even activate account. Rep tried calling couple departments and at the end no one could help or figure it out, rep said I had to go to a Sprint store, try activating account and migrate over to T-Mobile. Gave up on it.

So are people just buying ebay number to port to take advantage of the byod then close the account?

I am thinking to port my own numbers to tmobile to take advantage of future promo like iphone deal in the future.

I gave them the number as I wanted them to confirm it is eligible. Waived off assist fee and committed to provide sim fee credit once account is opened.
