The 20% insider hookup is an account level discount. What does it mean to have that discount added to a free line?
Agreed. Insider discount is an account level promo, not line level. So any future item you add to your plan gets the same discount.

Today I went down and activated a new line at Costco and stacked the $100 store card/free A11 deals at Costco. I'm talking with TForce now to get a Pixel 4a for the new line I just setup at Costco.

People were doing similar last month but what timing was being used for submitting for the A11 rebate and the Pixel 4a? Is the Pixel 4a rebate automatically applied when purchasing the phone online, because of the bill credits, or do I also need to fill out paperwork for that? This is the step I could see screwing up...

I checked my new line and there is active add-ons 6gb data for $15?
You can remove it yourself or ask them to match other lines if they have any kind of free data. I think some reps add the paid data to meet their goal or sales quota

The current promo says 50% so that would out the cost I pay through monthly installments at $250 roughly. There probably cheaper, better options if your wife isn't a phone/Android geek. But it is pretty much the cheapest you can grab a 5G capable fun right now.

If you are referring to adding the "free line" promo, then the Pixel 4a is probably the best deal right now, since most of the other phone deals are excluded from stacking with the "free line" promo.

Yes, meant with free line. Does 4a allow a trade in still to make it free?


Will defintely look at it. Thanks both !

I don't know what i lose in changing plan but with all this plan. they all seem the same to me now..
I do see the One Plus Promo addon on all my existing plan. I only see one kickback addon on my main line. Netflix is $2/month . so that is not on this plan.

The plan i have is
FRLTUL2LP $100
TMO ONE All In Promo
2 Lines + unlimited data
$100 with autopay ($110 regular)
3 lines maximum

Yeah. it seem like they moved me from the $100 to $120. After i get my new bill. I'll chat with them and see if they can add more discount to bring it down to $80 as before.. wish me luck!!
You are not going to get bill back to $100 base price. It's a waste of time. Most everyone one that has that plan/deal has moved on. Those that haven't moved on are still stuck with 2 line or 3 line. Take your pick, stay on limit of 3 line or move on.

So no issue getting the free line by T-Force via Twitter using my own SIMs I got from A71 phone. My question is I know this comes with unlimited call/text, what about data? should I turn off the data for this line? Can't find information about data for these free lines. TIA.

Actually if you have a Costco cash card (gift card) you can go in without a membership or having to be escorted by a member.

If you have a zero balance cash card you can still flash that at the entrance and go in and buy stuff at the concession stand with cash or credit card.

Regarding the mobile kiosk, they ask you for your membership card. Not sure if you can get any deals without being a member though.
2 years ago I was able to upgrade to a new phone using a Costco membership whose name was different from the tmobile account holder
