Are we really getting an $800 credit for trading in an iPhone XR? Or is this something where later they will say - oh your XR is only worth $200 and now you're stuck.

I bought the Phone on AT&T and was activated last Saturday. Any idea when I will receive the trade in kit? Can I go to the store to trade in old phone even before that email arrives?
The rep told me this morning that they are running behind a week or so to mail the kits.

Yes, according to their legal terms and conditions as long as you meet the necessary requirements. https://www.att.com/buy/legal/16700011

The rep clearly said that the computer showed that the $800 credit has been locked in and I need to mail back the iphone SE 2020.

He also credited me $30.24 to cover the activation fee.

For now, I still leaning toward trusting AT&T. If they are shady, they would not even ask the trade in model when placing an order.

I could be wrong. And I saved all kind of conversation and ready to fight..
When are you going to send your tradein back? Can you please post back if they honor the $800 credit or not? I have the same situation as yours regarding $800 credit vs $350 credit, but I am still waiting for the new 12 pro to arrive, so can't send the SE 2nd gen back yet.

I still have not received my kits yet. Will not know for sure until 2 to 3 billing cycle. I keep my fingers crossed.

I ordered two iphone 12 today at Sams club to get the $250 in line credits. But I get home and look at the papers they emailed me and I don't see anything about the $800 trade in part or the $250 line credits. I don't know if he did it right or not. How do I know? Anyone know?

The $800 is an AT&T promotion, not Sam's

Guess I got lucky with the loyalty department. Called today, told them that I was planning to upgrade 3 phones, trading in 2, and getting a pro max for me, pro for my oldest son, 11 for my other son and a 2020 SE for my daughter (adding her line). Wasn't planning on all this but can't beat getting the installments for $10, $10, $5, and $16.67. I said the only thing I was hesitant about was the upgrade fees since that's an additional $120. She said so you'd like them waived? I said that would be awesome! So she put a code on my account that would last for 2 weeks, since I'm buying the phones at different times....and said that 3 of them should be credited when I buy the phones, but the one line I'm adding since it's an activation fee, she couldn't do that. But she did say I could try and call and speak to a customer service rep at that time and see if they'll waive that also. It's up to their descretion if they choose to do that. So of course I'll be calling. I would say just keep trying. I can't complain that my bill will be about $252/month on the Unlimited Elite plan with 4 lines and a watch (cellular).

Also, I was told it's only going to be $700 for the Pro Max. sucks but still a good promo.

If I had 2 lines on a Mobile Share and only wanted to upgrade 1 phone - since I have my 11 Pro Max, how does this work? Especially with the plan? One plan convert to unlimited then the same old plan for my other phone?

Do the trade-in physically at ATT store, do not use their shipping package even if you make online purchase. I learned that hard way as they rejected my very good trade-in phone (pixel 4) saying it's cracked and it was damaged in the shipping to ATT. I lost my trade-in phone and ended up loosing promotion. ATT support and escalations did nothing as they lock you up in all legal aspects and you can't do anything 😬

For anyone who bought phones just to do the trade in, how do you make sure its not on an att installment still, or it doesn't matter, that att will still take it if its not paid off? Planning on purchasing an iphone 8 on ebay to trade in.

The best thing is to go to nearby store. Last time I traded at the store. He checked my phone whether it's unlocked and looked front and back that's it. Gave me a paper confirming the trade in with the amount. It took about 15 mins. Hope this helps.

Buy one from a reputable seller who's sold 1000s. Usually have 30 day money back. The ones I bought were used on T-Mobile.
