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.

Quote from joedtx :
I'm in the same boat love my 3aXL, but I have reservations this is a BIGGER phone, not sure what to expect i've had Samsung and it was great but didn't like the bloatware or all the added on stuff in Android. I've become used to the simple and clean approach of pure android and the pixel's camera is amazing, monthly updates, cloud storage, and the lack of a headphone jack it just gives me pause.

Who knows what sort of deal we'll see on the next gen Pixel. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)
Exactly this! My wife has this but the phone is giving issues in calling. There are random pauses and needs to be reset. But was thinking if I should make her get this. The pixel is on eip from T-Mobile and she loves the headphone jack and simplicity. Hmm.

Did you read the other thread about different types of hookup codes?
Quote from bigballs :
I am talking to a T-Mob rep now and she says grandfathered plan cannot use the hookup code. Is this true? She said I have to be on Magenta plan which will end up costing more but comes with unlimited data plan.

yes you can. Add the free line before the promo expires today and get the phone tomorrow. You have 2 weeks after adding a line to add a phone promo to the line.

Great, do you have a source for this? I saw many comments on reddit that it is not combinable as they excluded in the terms and conditions.

Excellent write-up. I presume, you can't register or reserve the code before you get the device? Meaning, if you got Type 3 code from any forum, it would be a pure luck that the code would still be working when you receive this phone?
Quote from TofuVic :
Based on the information from this thread and another community, I did a write-up draft. If anyone who is knowledgeable about this deal wanna look it over before I finalize it, please feel free to do so and let me know your thoughts. I figured with a write-up, questions won't be continuously repeated.
  1. Before 09/30/2020, obtain a Type 3 Insider Hookup code, which will result in a prepaid card worth $200
  2. On 09/25/2020, pre-order the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE. The phone purchase must be made
    1. Retail price is $699.99
    2. Trade-in an eligible device to reduce the price by $500
    3. With a Type 3 Insider Hookup code, the net price before sales tax is -$0.01
  3. The phone will be released on 10/02/2020, and you need the phone's IMEI in order to fully claim the Hookup code, which will expire on 09/30/2020. However, you will be able to use your Hookup code as long as the phone purchase is made within the promo period, which ends on 09/30/2020. You have 30 days from the phone purchase date to redeem the Hookup code.
  4. Once the phone is delivered, go to https://insider.t-mobile.com/lookup and follow the instructions, which include entering the Hookup code and the phone's IMEI
  5. If you opted to trade in a device, send it via postal mail
  6. You should receive the $200 prepaid card
I hope this helps,

I don't have the specifics of the s20 promo, but you are able to use the free line and also another phone promo with it. I got the free line and also got the Iphone 11 pro for free by adding the free line. I doubt there's going to be anything stopping you from using the free line for the phone promotion as I have been with t-mobile for 7 years and I don't remember them ever saying you can't use a free line and stack a free phone promo with it. The requirement is to add a line which is what you are doing.

Also I just checked the terms and conditions and it doesn't mention anything about not being able to use the free line for this promo. Here is what it says online.

How to get this offer starting September 25, 2020:
Activate a new line on an eligible plan.
Purchase a new Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G on a monthly payment plan.
Receive 24 monthly bill credits totaling $699.99.
If you cancel wireless service, credits may stop & remaining balance on required finance agreement may be due. For well-qualified customers; plus tax.


Find a store

Call 1-800-T-MOBILE
If you cancel your line before receiving 24 bill credits, you may owe up to the full value of your device ($699.99); if canceling your account, you can contact us first to instead make discounted monthly balance payments. Tax on pre-credit price due at sale Limited-time offer; subject to change. Qualifying service required. If you have cancelled voice lines in past 90 days, reactivate them first. $10 SIM card, and, in stores & on customer service calls, $20 assisted or upgrade support charge may be required. $699.99 via bill credits; must be active and in good standing to receive credits; allow 2 bill cycles. Max 4/account. May not be combinable with some offers or discounts (e.g. Carrier Freedom).

Correct. You can't pre register for the $200 hookup code as it requires Imei of the device.
Basically it is a crapshoot if you will be able to get the $200 rebate or not. If they ship early then we may have better odds but who knows

I didn't use the $250 promo because I didn't add my own device. I got the iPhone 11 pro on eip using the free line and the discount is already showing on my account.

Does anyone know, if there would be or is a limit on how many S20 FE you can buy? I have few lines, and none has EIP on it. Can I get three of these on three different lines and trade-in 3 devices?

As soon as T-Mobile ships the device the IMEI number will be listed in the EIP section of your account. So that gives you a couple days head start to fill out the form.

Just message TMobile on Facebook about the type 3 hookup code. Their response to me was that as long as I order the phone by the 30th, I have 30 days to submit the code. Now that it's in writing, I'm certain I'll get it in the end even if it gets denied somehow. Crazy great deal turning my S7 that's sitting in a drawer into a $700 phone.
