I did this offer on Black Friday and saw the additional $100 shop card offer today. Mentioned this to the kiosk guy and he took my info and will submit it for the additional $100 shop card. Will take about 30 days for approval.

So for those who did the old promo within the last 30 days, I suggest to go back to Costco and ask them to match this new offer.

I did this deal again today bought two iPhone 12 and added a line. So with the $540 plus $100, that is $320 savings per phone. With Costco in store 10% discount when paying in full, that is over $400 savings over msrp, this as as good or better than Sam's club $400 gc one day sale last year.

While we were expecting the big rebate deals of last year, it appears to not be happening and the deal on its own is still pretty hefty discount, almost half off or close to a hypothetical BOGO deal with add a line.

Why does it say 'up to' $540? Must I purchase a pro max to be eligible for the full amount or would an iPhone 12 qualify? How long before we can unlock these phones? Can we cancel out of the unlimited plan and switch to t-mobile prepaid after 90 days?

Maybe if the iPhone 11 was less than $540 but any 12 series should get $540. T-Mobile policy requires 40 days then can request unlock,. Locked T-Mobile phone should work on T-Mobile mvno.

And I cancel out of the unlimited plan as soon as I get my rebate, right?

Sure but the plan will not be prorated and the kiosk can ban you from future deals. Best to keep for at least 3 months although they will tell you six months.

Nice deal, will pull the trigger. Have to add two lines because took advantage of the $200 add a line promotion a couple of weeks ago. Was told to wait 6 weeks between two promotions.
