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.

And just as I feared, the code that was not reserved since last night just got taken in the last 2 hours or so.

I'm still getting a monthly credit from the Pixel 3a deal last year. One rep previously told me you can't have two credits on one line. So I can't take advantage of this deal?

Also experienced same thing with a type 3 code that I got from Tmobile Twitter DM. They explained that have to order first on the number that we want to "upgrade" then can try to submit the code again.
I am on the call with Tmo 611 to try order and try the code again.

Were you getting the same error below for using Type 3 code before preorder on the phone line?

Uh - Oh! Sprint is part of T - Mobile now and this number is not eligible for this discount.

I just tried it myself. You HAVE TO have ordered the phone already to be able to get past the phone number/code screen. The phone number you enter needs to have an EIP of a 5G device attached to it to make it eligible.

I already have a 20% hookup discount from 2017. Am I eligible for a Type 3 Hookup code on top of the S20 FE trade in promo or am I limited to just having the original 20% hookup?

Can someone who has done either online ordering or phone/chat please post the fees involved with their transaction?

I see references to a $20 fee, a $25 overnight frt charge, a $7 frt charge.

Obviously calling/chat gives you the option to sweet-talk your way to maybe a better deal.

I want to upgrade two existing lines. What's the cheapest way to go, call/chat/online?
This is my order summary via calling the 1-800 number.

Order Date: 9/25/2020
Order Payment Details
Device/Accessory Description Cost/Down Payment
Galaxy S20 FE 5G - Cloud Navy - 128GB $0.00
Upgrade Fee Amount $20.00
Sub Total $20.00
Sales Tax $47.70
Estimated Shipping $0.00
Total $67.70

Then it's a gamble. There is no guarantee that the code will not be taken by someone else after the purchase. Why do they make this so hard?

Yes... Some people have had luck getting codes from phone/chat/t-force reps directly if you want to try that route instead of trying to use one of the codes posted publicly. My thought was that if I couldn't get a code to work, I would just cancel the preorder (I think it's possible?) if your decision of whether getting the phone or not is based the $200 hookup.

Thanks, hkteaman. Which shipping method is that, 2 day, 3-5 day? Did you have to ask for no shipping charge?

What about the upgrade fee, did you try negotiating for no fee?

Finally , I can upgrade my Pixel 3XL for a smoother 120Hz screen! Was going to sell it on Swappa, but with this deal is no brainer and no hassle of shipping and dealing with random buyers either! After taxes and fees, my cost is about $250 + phone , which is not that bad.

That is an excellent idea. I am gonna try the pre-order and possible cancel approach.
