yeah, i got a new line on dec 2 and it's giving me the error "The promotion code T01491 is not valid for this date of purchase"

the guys at the kiosk had some difficulty printing out the rebate form but then they got it done but i'm wondering if anyone has a different promo code than T01491?

I asked the rebate people and they referred me to wirelessadvocates (the company that runs the costco kiosk). i'm hoping i get faster help in the forums online.

Since the promo has been extended, if anyone has gotten a promo code in the last couple days, that should be the right one for me to file under, so any help is appreciated!
My document from 12/8/2020 says Promo Code is T01540

They didn't charge me anything when I was Costco at all. They didn't even check my Costco Card lol
Right, I was not charged at Costco either. The $50 and $95 charges were printed on one of the 3 pages Costco mobile kiosk rep handed to me.

Had similar experience with Costco in September, and this time too. It seems we can just ignore those numbers. My actual bills did not have any of those charges back from September.

I don't see those numbers. I only have rebate sheet and also the one I initial and sign. None of those two sheets have the numbers you're talking about

thank you! I just tried it and it gave the same error: The promotion code T01540 is not valid for this date of purchase

I'm hoping there is someone out there that purchased on 12/1-12/3 with the right promo code!

No, it would be rejected

Mostly it should. As long as screen is not cracked, they don't generally care. I would just be careful of Craigslist in general, some of my friends have been burnt before.

Based on what zeta said, looks like I was wrong. So probably not worth risking it.

T01491 was supposed to be the one valid through 12/3. But they pulled the rebate early on 12/1 or so it seems. Also, they changed the promo code to T01540 from 12/4 onwards.

Unfortunately, your best bet would be to go to Costco and raise a ruckus.

the kiosk reps had a hard time printing out the form and then they went back a day and printed out the form but i got my own control number so it should work.

Anyone got a different promo code than the T01491?
Another option would be to put the purchase date as 12/1. That's how they got the rebate to print - by going back a day. So you should be fine. I am not sure if they actually check when you added the line, they look at when the Control Number was created. If it does get rejected, you can then raise a ruckus.

The $50 is your monthly charge and the $95 on the first month is because you joined mid-cycle and would be charged for this month's partial period as well as next month's period.

The $50 however reflects what your additional line charge would be without any discounts (for auto-pay, anything else). So, for example, on my Magenta plan, it said $25 and $50 but would actually be $20 and $40.

Total Monthly Charges $25.00
Total First Bill Charges $50.00

If they didn't print this for you, you should see it in your T-Mobile account when you see account history. It is titled "activation service agreement".

Thanks and repped. Saved my trip and money. BTW, will they take the phone with front or back glass cracked for trade in, or this is a no no.

Thanks as always, guess I will avoid this. need phones to do trade in, I saw a brand new seller on Ebay last night listed 20 more Iphone 9 plus for sale for $151, looks like scam to me, sold out this morning. I am unable to find one for less than $200.

Costco extended the $200/new line BYOD again that ended on 11/25, 12/1, 12/7, 12/10 and most probably now until 12/31 unless T-Mobile pulls it again. This stacks with $100 Port in T-Mobile MC.
