So you can order from TMo and still get $70 Samsung pre-order credit?

Got a link to this promo? The link you posted goes to a previously posted deal ($500 off with trade in).

Can someone help me understand this whole add a line thing, please? If I add a line to my account I will pay $20 additional a month. Based on my understanding I will get 699/24 months = 29.125 a month. That seems that I am getting an additional 9.125 a month from TMobile. Am I looking at this the right way? What is the trick (you don't get nothing for free)

I am not sure i follow. Yes T-mobile will give you credits so that the cost of the phone under EIP will be a net zero to you however you are still paying your line charge of $20/month. I don't understand you comment about additional $9/month from T-mobile

You can see it on the regular "phones" page on TMO or the link provided in the OP. However, if you are a TMO customer you have to clear cache, or use different browser, etc to see "see how to get this phone free when you add a line" instead of "see how to get this phone for $199 with eligible trade"

I activated an free line just a few days ago, still waiting for SIM card to arrive.
Can I still get this promo?

Edit: called and was told the free line promo (which ended on 9/24) does not qualify.

Pretty good deal if your existing plan is cheap to add a line and you don't mind staying with TMo. No need to trade in device.
Better than the front page $600 deal.

If your staying with T-Mobile for 24 months anyway, I don't see a reason to not do this. I'm on Simple Choice and an additional line is only $10/month so that's $240 plus taxes (about $300 in total). So that's like buying the phone for only$300 plus 2 years of free phone service. If you don't need the phone you can just sell it for a profit.

I guess I forgot the taxes on the phone and shipping that's about $80 in total. So that makes the total cost about $380 which is still not that bad.

I just literally asked via T-Mobile chat and was told that it has to be a new line added today and the free line from last week is ineligible.

I don't think so, as that promo was not active when you activated the free line.

If you could do a the FE on the free line, this thread would be through the roof.

And thanks QC for posting this. Crazy how some good deals don't get the love. Activating a new line for 2 years would cost me $384 ($16) to get free phone and service. Vs. $200 and another trade in donor I have to scrounge up. Bout even in my eyes. Actually lean towards your deal as I have a use for the line.

I really think those not wanting to add a line should be price matching at Samsung, good trade, other discounts, and the ability to get $250 BYOD (would end up at less than $150 in the end using cracked s8 as trade) and no 24 month commit. vs $199 deal

But I might be double dipping the way things worked out: Tried to activate a free line on account last week, there was a snafu. . .and they won't have it worked on backend dept out until tomorrow. Might end up getting free line and free phone in the end as the activation date will be tomorrow!

Anyone know if you port over a line from another provider like verizon wireless if it qualifies you for this deal. Was already thinking of bringing a family member onto my plan so seems like free phone. thanks.

I'm pretty sure it does as a port in is a new line. If you want to confirm then it's best to contact T-Mobile via their chat so you'll have something in writing.

Will it qualify me for getting this phone for free to port my numbers from current sprint account to TMO. I don't mind staying with TMO for 24 months.
