Get an unlocked phone (I got an old one phone that is not actively used/shown on the T-Mobile accounts page) and add a line at Costco. The Costco rep will give you a print out of a rebate instructions with the rebate #, IMEI of the phone, and the new phone number. I attached a photo of the print out.

Go home and port in a number. Submit rebate online for T-Mobile's $100 and Costco $200 using the port-in number within the 30 day deadline.
Thanks for the picture and clarification. I wasn't sure what number I had to use to submit the Costco rebate if I decided to stack with the $100 port rebate.

You recall how long it really took for the $100 cash card to come? 14th week?

From past experience it is 14 to 16 weeks for rebate to come from costco

Thanks.

How important is the IMEI? I plan on using the IMEI of a phone that is getting traded in soon. I'm guessing its just a placeholder number they need for the form and they don't really check?

You just need imei number in costco when adding a line, and i will suggest keep the sim in the same phonefor few days and do some activity like calling

Add a line shows it can be done at Costco, the port in offer shows it is combinable with the free line offer and you can port in a Google voice line as an eligible port in.

At the Costco kiosk, would I be able to add myself into my family's plan? I have the account number, pin, primary account holder's SSN, etc.

I remember calling T-Mobile about if it was possible to add someone who isn't on a T-Mobile plan yet as an authorizer user and they said it was possible, would I need to do that?

Thanks!

I don't completely understand your question. I am not sure if an unlocked phone that is currently being used on an existing T-Mobile line is ok for the BYOD promo. I had to physically bring my spare unlocked phone to show the rep the IMEI number.
Yes, that is exactly the question.

Unlocked phone which is currently active.

Not sure how the costco rebate/gc would be processed based onwhat criteria.

For now, i moved that sim card (currently on imei phone 1) to different phone. I doubt this clear imei of tmobile network/record. But, nothing to loose . I was initally to get the free line add directly from tmobile rep (tforce)

What details you give to port out Google voice number? The number and what else? I remember back then that there is some default account number something. Thanks

Correct except you should tell Costco that you're adding a free line because for my account, Costco's system couldn't add a free line due to an incorrect "Flexpay" (meaning pre-paid account) error; I have a post-paid account. The rep didn't know what to do and after searching Reddit, I called T-Mobile's retail support line at 888-310-8369 for the rep to tell a T-Mobile rep to add a free line. Don't the T-Mobile rep that you're going to port in and apply for the T-Mobile $100 rebate later though!

Buy a Verizon/AT&T/Boost Mobile number and port in the number after. Submit both rebates online.

Not sure about porting in at Costco. My rebate is still pending and I ported in after getting home instead.
how do you 'buy' a boost mobile # without buying a phone and all that?

Also is the free line unlimited talk text data (my current plan is that) or will it just be unlimited talk and text? Do I have to tell Costco that I only need unlimited talk & text and no data?
