Transfer the rewards to bank account:
You need to delete the bank details from the card once you initiated the bank transfer. If you delete the bank details, you can use the same routing and ac number in other cards without any error message.
Rule -
1. Add bank details --> Initiate bank transfer --> Delete Bank details --> Redeem other cards.
2. Repeat #1.
You can make all transfer one by one at same day and no need to wait for credit.

Sprint customer are not eligible to port in through online. It will require store visit but success from store is highly YMMV.
Costco $100 offer is not stackable with this offer. Thanks Grouchy16 for Costco confirmation.
Not only is it not stackable, I have more information:
ATTENTION:
I have some very very crucial information
The $250 dollar promotion, doesn't qualify at all if activated via any national retail. Costco, Best Buy, Walmart etc
Here are the eligible channels for this promotion:
Care
Retail (Corporate, TPR, and TPRs), including Retail Ship-To
T-Mobile for Business (Business Telesales, Care, Dedicated Experts, Retail, Direct, and Indirect)
Telesales / Virtual Retail
Web (including My T-Mobile and the T-Mobile app)
https://www.reddit.com/r/tmobile/...s_opened/e
When i spoke to a rep this weeked who claimed she is a supervisor and has been with t-mobile for 10 years, she said a line opened by Costco would still qualify.
Promotion Date Range: 9/18/2020 - 10/1/2020
--------
Process to avail $250 BYOD promotion
--------
Here is the sequence
1. Signup Hookup code type 1 using the any one of the numbers you will port. Research this on a separate SD thread about it. I got the code from link below
https://www.reddit.com/r/tmobile/...until_the/
When you've got a Hookup code, go to this site and register your info before activating your SIMs, account.
https://insider.t-mobile.com/
2. You will need 4 non t-mobile numbers that qualify plus four unlocked phones that work on tmo
4. Go online and put an order as new customer under BYOD parting the 4 lines (3rd will be free) . You will be charged $10 per sim (plus tax).
Magenta plan to be chosen (140 for 4) will be 112 for 4 lines after hook up discount

5. When sims arrive. Port in the non T-Mobile numbers [Number Transfer Center: 877 789 3106].
OR: Get on FB Messenger, and ask the T-Mobile team to transfer the numbers for you.
6. Submit rebate online . Url and promo code you can find in this thread
https://promotions.t-mobile.com/?...00&irgwc=1
Hope this helps
After you received your SIM cards:
1. Called the Number Transfer Center (Porting dept) at 877-789-3106 to transfer in your numbers (replacing the temp numbers associated with the SIM cards). If you are put on hold for more than 10 minutes, hang up and move to step 2.
2. Pop one of the SIM cards in an unlocked phone. (You should be able to make calls and send/receive text messages with the temp. number linked to the SIM card).
3. Create a T-Mobile ID with the temp number in (2). (You would be verified with your e-mail address and also verification code sent to the temp. number).
4. Get onto FaceBook Messenger. Send a request to the T-Mobile team to transfer in my 4 AT&T numbers. You would be verified through a link to sign in with your T-Mobile ID created in (3).
5. Once verified, a T-Force team member would come on board and help you port in your numbers.
6. Log on to T-Mobile.com with your email address and password (the temp number used in step (3) would not be needed).
7. Confirm your 4 numbers are in your T-Mobile account!
Note: Folks have done visible (chat with t-force on Twitter/ FB messengers they will confirm your number as it will come up a vzw) .. keep record of that chat
Porting your numbers after receiving and cashing out the prepaid virtual cards.
There are several options:
1. Numberbarn [numberbarn.com] - $7 (port-in fee $5 + monthly charge $2)
2. H2O [h2owireless.com] - $1. See post hpham_53's post on how to avoid paying min $10 monthly plan. Now need to wait 5 days before porting out.
3. Tello [tello.com] - $5

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.
To God Be The Honor & Glory

Honestly, I am not planning on putting them in any phone at all. Terms only say line active, and SIMs can be active but not used in a device technically. You can choose one of your existing lines (if you are already a customer) to get all 4 rebates sent to, otherwise you can just choose 1 of your 4 new lines to send promo cards to and leave a phone with that SIM inserted on to wait for the text.
At this point you are best going to a store to attempt to obtain SIMs directly from them, but it can apparently be a challenge to actually find a store willing to sell them alone. See my post above for advice on corporate vs authorized locations, although that is just a theory using my own logic, not a sure thing. No reason not to call ahead to confirm with your particular store.
Thanks

Yup. I did online chat. Can be through TMO app or through account login on website. Not sure if chat can be accessed if you don't have an existing account, but I doubt it.
If you are a new customer you may have to call port in dept at (877) 789-3106. Alternatively you can contact them through Facebook messenger. According to wiki for this post on that.
I had my rep offer to waive activation charges when he took SIM IDs and phone numbers through chat, but YMMV on that.
Heads up for all on re-lux, I bought from them as well, my numbers went to my spam. Using Gmail
ofc i was planning to anyways... but My story was a little sad. I went to the 2nd store they were unable to refund the fees. However, i remember reading a post saying that the activation fees can be credited later on so i didnt mind eventually.
So i talked to a very nice young man from a store who actually opened and ported in all 4 lines for me today. According to him, the 20% promo code dates are very very strict, and he had dealt with their promo team a lot.. because i activated my lines 1 day late(10/1 instead of 9/30), so i will lose the 20% off my megenta plan even i did the steps described in the thread to tie the phone number to my account.
That also means, all the BYOD promo that ends literally today, so everything we shared here after the last store in US closes today will be history...
That also means, if you didnt activate your device today, your 250 BYOD promo will very likely NOT apply
After i knew the 20% promo status is denied, i can see that denied status on the promotion tmobile,com after entering the main phone number on the account. However, i have made an attempt to call in to the prmo center team 877-470-3619 that transferred me over to customer care. I told them that i was supposed to activate yesterday but for some reason getting sprint zombie account issue and it had to do it at store today which causes the delay. The customer care rep created a case and will call me back in 1 week. I do not have much hope for that..
EDIT: I did encountered the zombie account issue today. If anyone still at the store, all they need is your ID(ssn is what the activation guy asked from the phone, and it was a hard credit pull, yes HARD CREDIT PULL) so they can call the activation department to let you through. I have a very good credit score so that didnt end up a nightmare from my end. but YMMV
I did spend $120 out the door, but will be chatting later to get my $80 activation fees off. I saw a couple of SDers able to get those off via chat, will be trying my luck when i get time.
