The last "free line" wasn't free, and made me lose my grandfathered plan, even though I was promised multiple times it was fine. Proceed with caution.

It was free for me. And still is. And I've been in a grandfathered plan for years. Didn't change mine. Aorry about yours.

Finally! Someone who has tried this! I will follow what you did. Just say I need to add a line and come home and Port the number over. Do you need to bring the BYOD with you to Costco? Any Sim charges? I also have an extra sim that is brad new.
Quote from hvtran4 :
Yes, you will need to bring an unused Tmobile or unlocked phone because Costco will need the IMEI for it. They will provide a new SIM and did not charge me for it. You will need the receipt and info from Costco to submit the $200 rebate.

As for the $100 port in, I still trying to figure out how to submit that for rebate. Good luck.
I added the line at Costco, and ported a number while adding the line. This way, I don't have to deal with a temporary number and have one number which is the ported one.
Brought my unlocked phone and the IMEI was input while adding the line. The same was transferred onto the paperwork generated for the rebate.
I got the rebate paperwork from Costco Rep. Will be submitting that shortly.
I will submit the T-mobile rebate a little later, maybe tomorrow.

For all those who have gotten the S20FE for 99 dollars and the free line, it's clear from the OP that's not allowed. I have confirmed with three separate agents. Here is a copy of the response from them -

So generally speaking with this free line offer, if a device offer includes adding a paid line, it would not be compatible. For that particular offer for the Samsung S20 FE, it does require adding a paid line so it is specifically called out on our side it is not compatible. I'm so sorry for confusion on that. Sometimes those third party websites may not have all of the details in certain posts but I appreciate you asking about it here.

The only charges for this offer would be a $10 charge for a SIM card unless you happen to have a new unused SIM card laying around.

Edit - I have been told that those who have gotten this deal won't get the free line. The phone promo would be applicable vs the free line offer.
Any reason why the Pixel offer WOULD be included then? I read the fine print on both deals and they simply say "add a line" -- not "add a paid line." I definitely don't doubt you or the OP -- just wonder where the difference lies, and how/why T-Mo would enforce that.

I'm not a risk-taker by nature, so I'll probably go get my $200 at Costco today and wait for the dust to settle before doing any phone deals. I'd love a free Pixel if I can get it!

What the heck, seems shady. Sounds like your going to deal with a headache later trying to get your old plan back.
I just got off the phone with them. They said since I just switched I have to keep the plan for 1 month then on the next cycle it will switch back. I, however, think what you said is true and it will be a headache to get back my two free lines and my old plan.

Hi all,

I just chatted with a nice T-Mobile rep and he added the free line for me. I have an older
Simple Choice Unlimited Promotion. I asked if I could get the Pixel 4a 5G with the 50% off promotion using the free line. He confirmed that I could.

I have a Pixel 2 that has been sitting in a drawer not being used, so I asked if I could trade that in and make the 50% off offer free. First he said no but then he checked and said he could do it.

I ordered with him over the phone. He waived a $20 fee for activation. I paid $40 upfront (the tax and sim card $30 + $10) and the phone will be here in 5 business days. There is no tax on the new, free line. There is only a regulatory fee of around $3 per month.

So, I added a free line, got the Pixel 4a 5G for free, and can use the phone on my current line and have the free line for use for another family member if I want. The other added benefit is that I kept my current line free for any future promotions that may come up over the next 24 months if I decide to take advantage of it. Oh...and the Pixel 2 will add another $18 credit to my bill.

I kept having the rep confirm the details and reiterating that everything would be as discussed. He assured me that it would. I am hoping for no hiccups or worse.

Good luck to others here who are hoping to take advantage of this deal in a similar way.

Thank you. We called 611 and talked to them a couple different times, they said nothing they can do except switching us to the newer more modern plans which are more expensive..

No target is only to buy Apple gift cards with the promotion going on. Then I buy the phone at Apple.

There's a problem with my plan...iPhone 7 isn't eligible for the $150 Apple rebate. Going to have to switch up my plan a bit.
I also have 7Plus I want to trade in. Please message or share your idea w/ me? I read your earlier strategy ... does that work? The $200 Target Gift card if buy 10 x $100 iTunes GC right or something else? Thanks.

Check my scheme please?

Objective: maxmize AAL bonuses + get an iPhone 12 Pro Max without monthly bill credits.

Steps in sequence:
1) Go to Costco and add a line on TMO to get the $200 Costco offer:
https://slickdeals.net/f/14602288-costco-add-a-line-t-mobile-byod-get-200-costco-shop-card

2) And same time as #1 - get the Tmobile $100 port-in rebate
https://www.t-mobile.com/offers/p...onaloffers

3) Go to Apple.com & purchase thru the Apple/TMO Addl $150 on top of $450 trade-in offer for my iP11 Pro.

So net is: $200+100+150+450-1099 = $199 for an iPhone 12 Pro Max.

Question - do I have to put ANY phone on the new AAL?

This is great! Wondering if I can take advantage of the free Pixel 4a promo? I have an old Galaxy S7 that can be traded in.
