You may lose your free line when port in a number with T-Mobile for past 90 days. If the system finds it out(auto audit), it will remove any incompatible promo on the line.
Thanks.

Mine dropped too. I was promised to be able to take them. Now I lost two free lines and work hard to get them back.

I told t-mobile I do not really care how we call those promotions as long as those lines are still free.

How many free lines do you have now? what are the codes?
I also lost two free lines (LOU2 and 3LOU3) after the rep migrated my Magenta 1-8 lines to Magenta 9 lines and added another free line on Nov 25th. Some reps tried to add them back, but the system always removed them soon. Even though the rep who migrated my plan assured my free lines will be kept, but the executive office finally said I'm not eligible for LOU2 and 3LOU3 and refused to do anything. Filed a FCC compliant and still no update yet.

Yes, after I read all the posts in here, I changed my plan to Tmobile One 9+ lines. I'm so glad I did since my bill is lower and I got to take advantage of the new free line.
Good. What is your plan SOC? Were you able to get One plus promo for your lines? I'm at max 10 voice lines on NAFUTT4 after this free line. I also have 2xFF MI lines and those don't transfer over if I switch to One plan.

I'm not sure what is the SOC code, but rep says this is a T-Mobile One plan that has a 12 max voice lines. I was on a NAFUTT4 too, with the new plan I also save $ on Netflix. I didn't know about the One Plus promo so I didn't ask.

You're out of luck
I've only read about it, never tried it, but people in the past have been able to initiate a port out to GV, then as they approach 24 hrs later they do a number change with Tmo for the same line.

You can do this online. When you make the change in your account, it'll give you the option to change to eSIM or physical SIM. It's pretty easy and straightforward.

When you switch to eSIM, it says that it might take up to 2 hours. The first time I did it, it took some time, though I don't know for sure if it took 2 hours. The second time I did it, it was almost immediate.
Thanks, it worked and no need to call.

I think you can still at least revert it back. I am offered this option.

Thanks to everyone who shared their knowledge. I didn't know about the One Plus promo, other than it is an Addon cost and the higher Plus plan. Add to the confusion is the One Plus phone.

Tried to get Hook up add to my account and was turned away without the offer code.
I then asked for Kickback and the One Plus promo. Rep asked which line, I told her for all my lines. Rep said she has to add it offline and will show up in 2-4 hours. An hour later I saw on my account with an alert pending changes start on 1/1/2021.
How did you contact them? Through T-force? App? 611? Text and when or what time? I am trying to add kick back to one of my paid line and one plus promo but no luck so far. TIA

[Not A Joke], I think I just scored one of the biggest LOU deals in history, in one call.


So, we started out with a MAG 55+ plan which caps you at 2 lines for $70.
Yesterday I called and asked to changed the plan to the: USCFM4-Simple Choice Unlimited FM 4/$150 w. 14GB HS. But since I only had 2 active lines to work with, the rep and his supervisor was able to get me moved to the SCFUTTBD-Simple Choice Unlimited Promo for $100, which is for 2 lines with 7GB HS. After that, on the same call, I was able to have the rep add the 3rd LOU3 without charge. Since I had an extra sim laying around.

Fast forward to this morning... I called and spoke with another agent and all I wanted were some free sim cards. Well, LSS, we wound up adding 3 additional lines - which I hope were free, because they show no charge on the individual line. But the total for the monthly charge on the SC plan went up by $120. I think that is for accounting purposes, jic the lou code is ever removed, they will revert to charging $40 per line.

My account shows this:
1. Simple Choice Unlimited Promotion - $220.00/mo Plus taxes and fees.
2. Applied discounts and promotions: $40 2020 Line on Us 3 (Additional Lines)

When I made the change from MAG 55+ to SCU, it showed a total price of $100.00.
But, as I stated above, each new individual line shows a charge of $0.00.
So this is telling me that the LOU are 100% Stackable and that Simple Choice plans are completely able to be paired with free lines. I believe my plan has a max of 6, because I no longer have the option to add more lines.

So, All in all I believe that I have scored 4 FREE LOU lines and am paying for two, which is a total of 6 lines for $100.00/Mo + taxes, fees & phone charges.

Can someone confirm for me that the: Applied discounts and promotions: $40 2020 Line on Us 3 (Additional Lines) is applied to all of my additional added lines?
Merry Christmas & HNY to me! Thanks T-Mo!

I am confused here. If it did not show up. How do you know you have them?

I were told that I have 4 free lines by some agents too. but I do not think I have them since I did not see them on my account as well as in the "developer tool"

You can see your next month bill under this: https://my.t-mobile.com/account/plan-details

Plan Details

T-Mobile ONE
$218.00/mo
Applied discounts and promotions:
$62 Insider Discount

$30 2020 Line on Us 3


or under developer tools-network-xhr-managementaccount

accountDiscounts: [{name: "Insider Discount", code: "EMPFNBM", amount: 62, usageBased: false,…},…]
0: {name: "Insider Discount", code: "EMPFNBM", amount: 62, usageBased: false,…}
1: {name: "2020 Line on Us 3", code: "20Q43P", amount: 30, usageBased: false,…}
can you confirm that that discount for the LOU3 is added per line, since it only appears once, the same as it does on my account?

Also, can I call in and add the Insider Codes and the AutoPay discount codes to my account, additional money off? I have simple choice.

You're eligible for a free line after getting your first vaccine shot and another after the booster one
