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.

You don't need IMEI to activate the SIMs. Just call the customer care line to open your account and activate the SIMs. Of course you will a need an unlock phone to test the SIMs, and also to receive verification codes if needed.
Since I have to call to open account and activate the SIMS, does this mean I can't avoid the $20 phone fee.

There is a pending change under account, probably is the hookup discount
Hi,
Thanks for the info, could you please see if there 's anything wrong with my plan charge. Thanks a lot.

Received the sims on Friday, Just called and ported all 4 lines to replace the temp #, then create an ID to log in, I saw 4 magenta lines showing $140 with auto pay discount applied, could anyone let me know if this is correct charge? I read here that the hookup discount will be applied in a day or two? Am I right on this? Thanks.

Thanks for your advice. I will follow the same.

One more question - I have a 5 year old line which I dont use it for a year now, can I cancel the old line and port this new line. I took advantage of free line in July and sometime in 2016 or 2017 - I dont want to jeopardies any of free lines. Is this possible?
cancelling any lines will exclude you from the any promotions for 90 days.

Normally 4 lines is 140 (with third line free). The hookup will show up in couple days assuming you filled it out beforehand. However the first bill could get generated without the hookup discount, you can reach out to CS to adjust it once hookup is posted.

I wish I could get autopay discount to work on my account. I did it 2 or 3 days ago and still no discount.

Just beg the customer care to waive the $20 assisted support fee. Most of them would oblige.

Yes, with auto pay and third line free, 4 magenta is $140 monthly, even in one or two day you see hookup applied to account, it is likely going to show on the second bill...

May I know when you placed the order and when account is activated? Don't know why some got two lines free while some only got 1 line free

Hi,
Can I put T mobile sims in the phone and activate the service with temp number , then in a few days port in my ATT number, because I am waiting to close my ATT account? I am afraid if I port my ATT number after Oct 1, it will affect the rewards? Thanks.

Thanks. I am asking, because I saw that , too. I placed order on 09/23, just activated. Anyway to have two lines free, actually I want to keep the service for long term.

If you got two lines free, why are u seeing $140 for your monthly instead of $120?

Your SIMs are already activated with the temp numbers before they were shipped.

Yes, I did the previous T-mo $200 Deal in April this year. Although the terms said 6-8 weeks (see attachment), T-mo promptly texted the reward links to the phones at 30 days after activation. I transferred the Virtual GCs balance to my bank overnight at no charge, and closed the account at about the 75th day. Got a partial refund about 4-6 weeks later by a debit card.
With Sprint now part of T-mo, I hope T-mo doesn't pick up Sprint's bad habits with prolonged GC processing, denying rewards for silly reasons, etc.
You got partial refund for your bills from Tmobile recently? Has it changed now? I was told no prorations from rep and my past experience from 1ish year ago confirmed no proration also. So, if I cancel Day1 into a new billing cycle, I still get charged for a full cycle. thanks.

Thanks a lot. So if I port my Att number in a few days, it doesn't affect the gc?
