magenta2 is the normal magenta with 8 lines maximum.
magenta9 can have up to 12 lines maximum. Usually one will upgrade to magenta9 after reaching 8 lines by calling t-mobile.

I don't know if there are price differences.
I know megenta2 has a $5 autopay discount for up to 8 lines. If you add this free line as your 9th line, do you need to pay the $5 since 9-12 line do not have autopay discount? TIA.

yes, however, one of the free line credit show up after 24hrs
For me all line discounts showed up immediately except autopay. It doesn't show up still. Can you post your discounts and promotions screenshot?

For me the rep says...it will show up when bill generates...that was not the case before.

no price difference, the rep told me, the only difference at my end will be how the price is breaking down. they will auto up you from magneta2 to 9 when you have more than 8 lines on the account.

Not for free line...free line is free of all costs...except taxes...in your case, i think there will not be any taxes.

For the record, Select Choice plan SLCULTT20 does not qualify.

Does anyone know of any plans that would be eligible that would keep me at around $70/month for two lines unlimited talk/text/data plus the freebie?

i think you will find the total will comes out right. my total monthly bill went down $10, went from line 8 -9. since magenta is an all-inclusive plan. no tax or fee.

What about MagentaD2? According to SOC sheet, looks same as Magenta2 but $20 cheaper?
Anyone know?

It's deals like this that make me want to upgrade my plan. Been with them for over 15 years now and paying $85 for unlimited web and calls / texts. But I don't get any of the new features and promos they've been putting out.

i want to say huge ymmv. i was able to do it easily. another user tried and also reported to some other users on reddit without luck. just thought id share since we have the same plan and i always felt left out on deals like this but felt better after i was able to get the crazy deal on unlimited data flr $0.
Just to report back. No luck with that SOC code. The rep tried many times but couldn't do it. He said that the system wouldn't let him do it without any charge. However, I was able to have him ask the supervisor to add $10 unlimited data with 3gb hotspot to one of the lines.

I think what I'll do is to wait a few days, then try calling again. If that SOC code still won't add, maybe I can have the rep ask a supervisor. Maybe at least change my $20 unlimited data line to the $10 one. Anyhow, I got something out of it. The plan you have with unlimited data for 4 line is a crazy deal. Don't think it will happen again.

For those who have added a line at Costco for the $100/$200 costco GC rebate, did you need to activate the new number and/or SIM card using the BYOD phone first in order to qualify for the rebate promotion? Or it doesn't matter what phone you use to activate it? I'm asking b/c the phone i put down for the BYOD may be locked and I may not be able to use the new T-mobile number with it. TIA
To everyone read the OP "PSA: COSTCO BYOD IS NOT STACKABLE!
They specifically call this out in the docs this time."

The free line covers the whole cost. So it will be free. You do not have to worry about autopay discount for the 9-12 lines.
