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.

My Hook Up Code status does not say 'approved', but says 'Received'. How do i handle this? Call Customer Service? I already received bill for $140 for Magenta but discount is not applied.
Im in the same boat.. I've called twice and messaged with another rep online. Unable to get a clear answer. My status hasn't changed since 9/24. Just ported in 3 ljnes yesterday and phone bill is $90. Hope you have better luck!

Mine says the same thing. I just activated my numbers yesterday. My port numbers came in today. I've seen others say it takes about 2-3 days for the numbers to change.

My bill actually shows the old temporary numbers on it so that's probably why my discount doesn't show yet since the discount is tied to the number you originally submitted.

I'd say just wait until the port numbers update and your discount should probably show up 3 days after you port in your numbers.
Worst case, scenario, you just don't get your discount this month and you get a credit next month.

Quote from hpham_53 :
I don't trust the information on these types of boards either. I go by the legal terms posted on the company's web site. That's the info that a potential customer uses to decide whether or not they can meet the terms. If there's a dispute, I'll use the info on their web site which does NOT say prepaid numbers don't qualify (I took and saved the screenshots) to file a complaint with the FCC and the BBB. It's unreasonable for them to expect a customer to call to get the terms of a promo which are given to them VERBALLY by a rep.

I recently completed a BYOD deal with AT&T. The terms posted on their web site said you only need to maintain service for at least 45 days to get the reward. On the 46th day, I called AT&T Reward Center to request the reward and the rep said I'd have to wait 60 days before claiming a reward. I filed a complaint with the BBB and the next day got an email from a Customer Care rep whose title said she works for the AT&T President Office. She asked what AT&T could do to make things right. I said I just wanted AT&T to issue me the GCs because I've met the 45 days required service. They promptly issued me the GCs.

Why did you only get one number? 4 numbers you can get the max benefit?
Does Tello number qualify for promotion. My kid has $10 tello plan. I can move it to Tmobile with 2 lines. I think, price will go up for the plan. I will only get half of it reimbursed from employer during WFH. But i can get $250 rebate. When does this promo going to expire?

Just did a quick search. Tello is not qualified.

if you want high probability of promo success, never use a MVNO from sprint or TMO. always get ebay numbers. everything is YMMV, but ive seen too often their MVNOs being denied.

its always funny and also offensive how these forums attract all sorts of temp players who come in: ***hello! hello! im in a hurry, someone answer my question ASAP!***, get what they need, then they disappear. and they dont even bother reading even a page back. then you have those who keep asking the same question answered multiple times only a few hours ago.

maybe im the only one going back 2k+ comments and past years of comments to expand my knowledge because i hate being a n00b.

Did you check what's listed under "Account" on my.tmobile.com? The chances are the first bill you see under the "Bill" tab will not have the correct amount. So again, check the "Account" tab and report back.

Well, then - so it's quite clear we all got approved for the Hookup discount; it's just the first bill that is clearly incorrect. I think there is nothing for us to do but just to wait - we may end up paying the billed amount first and then expect the credit plus the correct amount to show only on the second bill.
