How did you get it? I have spoken to two different T-Mobile reps and they both said it does not stack with this free line offer.
I played dumb and ask the rep if they are any device deals that I can utilize with the free line. There are actually few but the one I remember are iPhone SE, pixel 4a both 50% off and samsung buy 2 devices and get $1000. All these 3 are bill credits.

You will get the free line. You will get paperwork to do byod promo rebate but you don't have to submit the rebtate if you don't want to.

If you don't submit the BYOD online, you are fine. It doesn't matter if they give you the BYOD promo instruction paper.

Did you actually get free line on amplified plan? Have the discount shown in your account yet?
I have magenta amplified plan and I've been denied the free line 3 times. I just spoke to a rep by phone and they said the amplified plan is not eligible I would have to switch to the regular magneta plan which I'd lose the 20GB of mobile hotspot for 3GB instead. Also I'd lose the HD Video streaming. Idk if that's worth it for me because HD video streaming is a must and I often use the hotspot.
Anyone with a different experience on the Amplified plan please share your experience

So how did you approach the Tforce, how did you ask them to switch you and move all your addons because for me they just offer me Magenta plus SOC: MGPLSFM to keep what I have and get free line.

Men that will move me from $100 to $140 Confused I guess no free line for me so far
When I changed mine in November I did it through chat on the website and just said my current SOC is FRLTUL2LP and I am capped at 3 lines. I said I wanted to switch to another SOC soni can take advantage of the free line promo and gave them the SOC I wanted to change to. She thanked me for knowing which SOC I wanted and went ahead and did it. Prior to that asking to change to another plan but not giving the SOC I wanted (this was before I knew which code to target) would always yield the offer of only Magenta available to switch to.

You don't even need an actual phone they will just register a dummy phone on a sim when you pop it into any unlocked phone it will work.

"Great news! T-Mobile line XXXXXXXXXX is scheduled to receive a monthly bill credit for 2020 Apple Activate P9 as long as your eligibility is maintained."

Just got a text for my iPhone SE 50% off order. And new line still shows "2020 Line On Us 4" under add-ons.
