Based on the information from this thread and another community, I created a guide so that more people can hopefully navigate this deal easier and so questions won't be continuously repeated.

Because this will be a living document, I created a Google Doc for ease of updates: https://docs.google.com/document/...sp=sharing

Note: I am not a T-Mobile employee and this is my first-time doing a trade-in with a Hookup code, so I am learning alongside most people here; thus, my guide may not be fully accurate. Feel free to make suggestions for corrections if you notice any mistakes or parts that lack clarity. And if you found my guide helpful, please post a response here just so I know and will continue doing these. Thank you.

I hope this helps,
Tofu Vic

Since this involves a trade-in, just want to remind folks that you can trade-in in person at a T-mobile corporate location and by doing so, avoid any surprises from mailing in your device

Starting 9/25 get a Galaxy S20 FE 5G for just $200 over 24 months via bill credits when you trade in an eligible device:

Apple: iPhone 11, XS Series, XR, X, 8 Series, iPhone 7 series
Samsung: Galaxy S10 series, Galaxy Note10 series, Galaxy S9 series, Galaxy Note9, Galaxy S8 series, Galaxy Note8, Galaxy S7 series
Google: Pixel 4/4XL, Pixel 3A/3AXL, 3/3XL
OnePlus: 8, 8 Pro, 7T Pro McLaren, 7T, 7, 7 Pro, 6, 6T
LG: V60 ThinQ, G8 ThinQ, G7 ThinQ, V50 ThinQ, V40 ThinQ

Or get one free via bill credits when you add a line.

THIS STACKS WITH THE $200 HOOKUP CODE! Remember, only one Insider Hookup code per account, whether it's the 20% or the $200. See here for details on that promo. Please do not ask for hookup codes in this post.

Please note: This WILL NOT stack with the free line. The free line ends 9/24, and this phone promo begins 9/25. There is NO WAY to get this phone for free using the free line. Please don't bother support trying to do it.

https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-pho...-s20-fe-5g

Click the magenta text at the top of the page to see the offer for $500 off. Must be logged in to see the offer. To see the "free with add a line" offer, open in incognito. Please note the $500 off page currently says "when you add a line and trade in" but the adding a line part is a typo and not necessary.

I also want to learn how I can get a Hookup code.. Thanks.
I've added a link to another SD post with details.
Quote from Brooklynite :
NOT FREE REQUIRES 2 YEAR "NO CONTRACT" CONTRACT.


You have to pay for the phone and you get credit back for the phone over 24 months. In other words ,2 years of overpriced contract required.

If you cancel at anytime during 2 years of overpriced service you have to pay the phone off. You can't just return it to TMobiile
Not entirely accurate. You do not pay "up front", you pay monthly minus the monthly credit. Yes you have an installment plan but no you don't pay up front.
Quote from LeviathanUltima :
Will tmobile be sneaky and tack on the 5G cost for the older plans?
Nope, even MVNOs on tmobile are getting 5G access for free.
Quote from saravanaa :
I'm on essentials 55+ plan with2 lines. Is there any offer available for my plan? I would like to upgrade my iPhone 6s plus
You should be able to get this $500 off FE deal on the 55+ plan.
Quote from tonyuab :
I am on the grandfather plan. Will this promotion work on all plans?
Which plan? Any plan that you can get an EIP on (a phone installment plan) should qualify, except for "Value Essentials" which is the 4/$100 plan they offered recently.
Quote from desimillionaire :
How does this work? - $200 off a 5G phone for existing customers...

I'm on Simple Choice, if i upgrade and trade in a s7, i can get $500 off Plus $200 off? or just $500 since its more than $200?
Both. See the link I added to the post for details about the insider hookup.
Quote from bigballs :
Can someone confirm me trading in Galaxy S7 would only cost me $200 for the new S20? This is an excellent deal.
Yes, for the S20 FE, the $200 will be spread out via 24mo of payments. Or you could pay $200 down and your bill will not go up.
Quote from bigballs :
So the hook-up code doesn't do anything for existing customers, right?
The Type 3 hookup code gives you a $200 rebate card. See details on that promo in the link I added to the post.

I've been a customer of T-Mobile for like 14 years so I'm not going anywhere.

I can get an S20 FE for free if I trade in my S7 that's just lying around and and can find a hookup #3 code? Basically, I'll pay around $8/mo for 24 months, but I'd get a $200 card back early on. And I don't have to add a line.

Seems like a pretty amazing deal. Am I missing anything?

There are 3 different hookup codes. Type 3 ($200 rebate for 5g phones) works with current customers. People should just take the time to say hookup code type 3 to avoid some of the confusions.
Does hookup code type 3 require adding a line?

How do we get the type 3 code? I am still confused as to what these codes are. I have been with T-mobile for at least 15 years but I was never given a code. Do I call the customer service?

FYI, its not much upgrade from FREE A71 deal. I would save $200. I have 2 A71, 2 Note 10+, and S20 ultra. A71 is best bang for the buck.

No, it only requires you to purchase a 5G phone on EIP.

Read the SD post i linked in the original post above. It details what the codes are and where to find one.
Quote from Robotz :

No, as long as you don't attempt to get another phone promo that has bill credits on that same line, the credits for the FE will continue (just make sure they've started first before paying off the phone).

Is this expected to be available via Costco? Because they generally pay out the promo value as a one time prepaid card than over 24 months - would it be silly to expect to be offered at a Costco kiosk?

If it is offered via Costco, is there still a way to use hookup code #3 or is that only for purchase from T-Mobile directly?

From Reddit, more confirmation of this deal is here:
https://www.reddit.com/r/tmobile/...g_will_be/ [reddit.com]

Also, a T-Mobile Employee specifically stating that this will qualify for the Type 3 Hookup. Again, I don't think this is a lock, but this is more comfirmation:
https://www.reddit.com/r/tmobile/..._question/ [reddit.com]
Looks like phone will be delivered after Sep 30.
Type 3 hookup expires on Sep 30. Will we be able to redeem that after Sep 30?
