How does that substantiate that it can be stacked?
This is funny. Probably printed up by a kiosk employee. I wouldn't take it as gospel.

That being said, if you're a member it doesn't hurt to activate at Costco (free SIM, no activation fee) and submit the rebate. Worst case they deny it.

I was told directly from T-Force that it wouldn't work.

I wouldn't risk getting a free line for just $100.

I added my last free line at Costco and I applied both rebates, T-mobile and Costco, interestingly both denied. I had to call T-mobile to redo it but Costco deleted the entire application so it doesn't even have any records. I email them and they didn't reply yet.
What is the reason for Costco $200 byod rejection ?

Either
1)u got a new phone/promo in top of the byod free line,
2) if u ported a new number over byod number, costco byod gc rebate need to reflect the new number. Same for tmobile

I am thinking the opposite scenario. Since TM can't or at-least can't easily enforce third party rebates; easy enforcement would be that all lines added at Costco are not eligible for free line. That can be a messy scenario.

How do you check if line that was added is actually free?
It will eventually show up here: https://my.t-mobile.com/account/plan-details

Take this all with a grain of salt: If you ordered a line online or via a call/text, I think you'll have to wait until the sim card ships and a phone # is assigned before the promotion shows up. If you did this in-store or had an existing SIM card in your possession activated then the promotion shows up pretty quick. There supposedly is an issue with how the promotion is being logged in their system though ... I'd give it a day or two to work everything out.

Cool, so the confirmed minimum time to port back and qualify is 1 year?
Officially it's after 1 year and another 90 days ported away and 1-2 days lost in between porting.

If you value the free line, isn't the worst case that the $100 rebate is honored but this invalidates the free line promotion?

I ported the number at Costco kios so the number they have on file is the exact same one I have right now.
No I did not get any promos with that line.
Costco somehow deleted the whole thing. It's like it never been filled the application. For a second I thought I might forgot it but then I opened my Email and yes I did applied the reward but they somehow deleted it. I email them so let's see what they say. On the other hand T-mobile denied due to ineligible activation something like that, I called them and I said guys I met all the requirements. I ported a number, brought my own device so I should get the 100 dollars. The rep resubmit the rebate again and right a way it showed approved then after an hour it changed from approved to received.

I think someone just confirmed here that google 4 5G deal (50%) is stackable.
Does anyone know if iphone se 50% deal is also stackable?
That deal was not stackable in the last November deal.

This SOC includes Netflix on Us correct?


According to Apple's website 5G doesn't work when using Dual SIM. You need to switch it off to use 5G and then can switch it back on.
Yea. It includes it. You still have to pay a small portion depending on the level you choose. I pay $2 a month but that is going up to $3 in January.
