So it seems that with this Apple/Att upgrade you can unlock:
Is your device on an installment plan or term agreement? Make sure you meet these requirements, too:

Your device has had active service for at least 60 days.
You pay off your installment plan.
If you pay it off on your monthly bill: Submit your unlock request at the start of your next statement bill period.
If you pay it off early: Submit your unlock request 24 hours after your payment.
You complete your contract or term agreement.

But for Loyalty it is 2 yrs contract you need to complete your contract or term agreement before unlocking.

My wife and I each currently have an 8 plus with AT&T with unlimited plans. AT&T has worked fine for us, and their service is the right choice in our area. The 12 Pro Max is the right phone given what we do with our phones. Can this deal work with phones purchased at an AT&T store too? We qualify for the educator discount through AT&T, which would be more significant than any qualifying discounts through Apple.

Edit : I answered my own question. The AT&T site says the phone has to be purchased through Apple. I'll call tomorrow to confirm.

You can get this deal directly from AT&T, either in store, on online.

What are the best ways to line up the right plans with at&t?

I am not familiar and I am not interested in a "free" phone if the monthly plan is $60+ per line.

So through my findings:

On Att upgrade if you payoff the phone means paying off the monthly installment then you can unlock after 60 days of service and still get credits back if you stay for 30 months?

On Loyalty 2 yrs contract you get a deal like $300 for the iPhone Pro so you pay the $300 up front it locks in 2 yrs with no credits but there is no unlocking since your contract ends in 2 yrs.

Unlock policy:
Your device has had active service for at least 60 days.
You pay off your installment plan.
If you pay it off on your monthly bill: Submit your unlock request at the start of your next statement bill period.
If you pay it off early: Submit your unlock request 24 hours after your payment.
You complete your contract or term agreement.

I paid for my iPhone 11 up front in February with ATT

I think I can sell my iPhone 11 (128g) on eBay after fees for $500 and then buy an iPhone 8 used on eBay for $150, trade in the iPhone 8 for $800 credit, pay $6.64x30 for the iPhone 12 pro (up front will be $200).

$500-$150= $350

$350-200= $150

I actually make $150 but with activation and taxes, probably break even.

šŸ¤”šŸ¤”šŸ¤”

Wife just traded in her 7 Max last month for an 11 pro Max, it was a $700 credit, sent the phone back 2 weeks ago and still waiting for credit. Status shows it was accepted and processed today, but last step is the actual credit going on the account. Not sure how long that takes.

Also, the trade in showed $80 for her phone but the ATT rep told me to ignore it, on the account it was listed as $700. Let's hope he knows what he's talking about.

I'm currently on their Unlimited Plus plan. To be eligible, I know I would need to be on one of their new unlimited plans (elite, extra, etc.). I assume I would need to switch to this newer plan before doing the trade-in?
