Make sure that the right promo was applied on your line if you want to do a trade in!

Quote from jrhuang :
It should be "2020 Google Activate Trade P1" for the full $500 off. There is also a "2020 Google Activate P1" which is only $250 off.


The Trade P1 reflects as a $20 credit per month, the Activate P1 reflects as a $10 credit per month.

How are you guys returning the old phone?
I don't see shippint label option on T-mobile account.
I had the same problem, the order doesn't show up in the order status page. I had to call 611 and have the rep email me the return label.

I did as well and they show no end date for the Pixel promo. I've heard the free line promo ends on the 3rd though.

Anyone tried skipping sending the trade in? Do they cancel bill credits or just the trade in value which is nothing for most.

Pretty sure it ends tomorrow unless they start a new promo. I looked at the internal promo printout at a T-Mobile store yesterday when I picked mine up and it had an end date of Dec 3rd for this promo.

I think you're right and the chat reps just don't have the updated end date

You might get one month of credit tops if you're lucky. Why would you think you'd get something for nothing?

I'm trying to find the answer to these questions... so I added the free line via promo last week and I know this deal stacks with this. Can I go into a store with a pixel trade in to get the free 4a 5g now? Or did I need to do this Pixel 4a 5G promo at the same time as adding the new line?

Also, does the free 4a 5g negate the $100 port in number offer? When does that end? (This is not the Costco BYOD promo)

I didn't see this mentioned on the thread - you need to select the monthly payment plan when ordering to receive the 1/2 off deal when trading in a device. When I selected this option (and not pay in full) the $250 offer showed up for the trade in.

Once the bill credits start, I was told by the Tmobile rep that you can pay off the phone if you would like.

For those debating about free Pixel eligibility with the free line, this is what is says on my account after I did it: Line 5554446666 is eligible for 2020 Google Activate Trade P1 due to an eligible purchase . Monthly credits in the amount of 20.0 will be applied over 24 months for Pixel 4a 5G - Just Black - 128GB / 358119100****** while maintaining service & promotion eligibility. See promotion terms and eligibility rules at http://www.t-mobile.com/PromotionalOffers
Yesterday, I added the Pixel to my Free line I opened thru Costco on Nov 25 using T-force, using a Trade in, and this is what I got:

123456789 is eligible for 2020 Google Trade P2 due to an eligible purchase . Monthly credits in the amount of 9.21 will be applied over 24 months for Pixel 4a 5G - Just Black - 128GB​

They applied the Upgrade offer ! Will try to Contact them again after I get my phone to see if they will just credit me the $250 difference.

Adding my situation since I added the Pixel after I added the free line.. I added the Free Line on us on Friday 11/27 and then ordered a OG Pixel on Swappa. I called 611 today and had them sign me up for the Pixel 4a 5G for free (after statement credits).

I paid $45 for tax and shipping today and got an email saying my trade in is worth $0. I should be getting $499 in statement credits over 24 months ($20.79)
i want to do the same . but what does it mean trade in value 0. i have an OG pixel with small crack on screen but functions well. . it shows online trade in value 0 . can i still trade in and get 499 statement credit? essentially they accept any OG pixel as trade in?
