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.

Do you have to wait for the port to finish to submit rebate or can you do it before it? I logged in and checked but it still shows temp numbers in the account but there is notice stating port is in process.

yes, i have tracking number, and i can track on UPS. The package is not in UPS hands yet. so only the label was created.
So, not sure when I will receive the sims.
I just now already got the email "your account has been activated" (in less than 24 hours of placing order). So, T-Mobile will likely start billing as of today, even though they didn't deliver the sims to use the service.

chatting with t-force to see if they will allow to pick up sims in-store today (considering they activated my account, and sims are still technically not even shipped)

prefer to get atleast the hookup no ported today, so the 1st bill gives the 20% off.
Thanks. Let me know how it goes. I will try to do the same.

Yes. Waiting until your real number shows up in the drop down list.

Shipping is via UPS Mail Innovation service. UPS to USPS. The tracking number provided is for USPS. At UPS, it says shipment not found. USPS says awaiting package. I think the package was shipped on Friday via UPS and USPS should get it Monday or Tuesday. Hopefully, I can get it before Wednesday.

Just ported in 4 numbers & completed the entire process for the $250 BYOD promotion.
Here is my list of steps & hope this helps someone.

==========

1. Obtain a 20% hookup code (type 1) and register the Hookup code by using one of my porting in numbers.
https://insider.t-mobile.com/


2. Order 4 sim cards at t-mobile.com. $10 per sim (plus tax). Magenta plan. Credit check is required.
Be sure to write down the PIN you've created during the ordering process.


3. After I placed my order online, a Tmo agent called me to confirm the order. Be sure to ask the agent for free upgrade to UPS 2nd day shipping.

4. After I received my sim cards, I called Tmo Transfer Center: 877-789-3106 to request porting in my new numbers.
Be sure to have your account number and pin number from your current service provider ready. The agent also asked for my Tmo PIN which I created in step #2.
It took about 15 minutes to complete the process, and all my lines were activated within 20 minutes or so.

5. Create my T-Mobile ID at t-mobile.com.

6. Submit rebate online. Promote code 2020BYOD1
Make sure your real numbers are populated in the drop-down list. Submitted rebates for all my 4 numbers.
https://promotions.t-mobile.com

7. After 1 day, I received a text from Tmo:
"Congrats! Your request for 2020 T-Mobile Insider has been approved! Your discount will be reflected within 1 -2 billing cycles. Please look out for 2020 T-Mobile Insider on your bill that will indicate your credit each month."

Hi,
Would you please let me know why you want to have the hookup number ported today, in order to be qualified for 20% discount? I am in same situation, does porting today or in afew days make any difference regarding applying the 20% hookup discount? If it does have a difference, I will do the porting today as well, as I already received the sim and temp #, I just thought there 's no rush to do the porting? Thanks.

Thanks ... got from this same seller. Sent info instantly.
- Ported today, no issues from T-Mo.
- No SMS verification required (even though I did get a auto text from T-Mo says "in some cases, ATT users may have to verify SMS"). None of that was required for me.
- Port-in number completed and is active on my account.
- Rebate submitted few mins back.

Makes no difference. I did all of my ports at one time, but one took a day to complete (of course that was the hookup one). The account didn't show the discount until the last line ported. Once it ported, the discount showed immediately.

I didnt have time to work on this until today..placed order 9/26 for 4 sims, selected free shipping. Any way to avoid the chance of promotion ends before I get the sims to process port-in and submit rebate?

tmobile creates the first bill immediately (within 1 or 2 days) after account activation.
so, if the hookup no is not ported in, will miss out on the 20% discount on first bill.
