T-Mobile corporate just posted on Twitter. This is a continuation of the November free line promotion. If you activated a line around thanksgiving Black Friday you are not eligible for another free line since it's the same promo just revived as a continuation. Sadly this is their official stance on this. I'm guessing too many people jumped onboard a rumor.

I'm debating doing that removing data trick to get the free line to show up but fear removing and adding it back to tmobile one could be a headache because of existing promos. Anyone have any thoughts

Is the link to the SOC codes page dead? I can't access it.

Has anyone with Magenta 55+ been able to get this free line?
I believe the 55+ lines are maximum of 2 lines on the bill. I don't think they are ever eligible for any extra line promo.

For me the trick didn't work. My "ONE Plus Promo" disappeared after saving the "No Data" option. Had to call rep to add it back.

Rumor of a rumor...lol, interesting post. What is real from poster on Reddit is that, people are seeing two credits with same promo name 2020 Line on Us 3 for both November and December lines on their ACTUAL BILLS.

I follow several of the T-MOBILE Twitter accounts and can't find this anywhere. Do you have a screenshot?
Quote from FusionNeo View quoted comment :
This is definitively not true. Internal documentation says you can stack this promo with any and all free line promos as long as they were activated before 12/20.

There's some wording in the internal documentation which confused reps. It was meant to clarify you can't take advantage of the Magenta 3rd Line On Us AND this 2020 Line On Us 4 during this promo period, basically to say new accounts can't get TWO free lines unless they activated before 12/20. However, it's been clarified in the comments for this promo that these are separate promos and you can stack both.

I, along with many other customers, have stacked both.

I just added a free line 2 days ago on 55+ . (2 paid, 1 free). My bill went up $20, but tmobile said when I get my sim card activated it will show discount. It does not sound right, should the line be free whether I use sim card or not? I'll see what happens when I get my sim card.'

Our bill cycle ended a couple of days back and bill clearly shows LOU credits for free line opened in Nov and now with this promo.

As stated, I skipped the last LOU promo (Nov). I'm not going to poke the bear since I got what I asked for (free line) and more (-$10 to bill).

Doubt it right now since there are no insiders promos running. Mine was added when there was insider promos for new customers, but the agent went ahead and applied it to mine and it took effect anyways. I'm guessing the criteria for new customer isn't a requirement in the billing system, more like a consideration for the CSR when applying to an account (obviously mine didn't care or didn't know). Funny thing was I didn't ask for the insider promo, I asked for something else, but I'm not going to turn down a permanent 15% discount.
