Is the promo still going on? Also, if I add a free line and few months later cancel about 4 lines, does that have any impact?

Deal is dead. IT's in the Wiki, and thread is marked expired. And no you couldn't take the free line and then a few months later dump paid lines, and still keep the free line

This was clearly something special in terms of advertising. My guess is Tmo wanted to test the free adspace as opposed to coughing up $$ to paid media, because clearly if you weren't a part of reddit/$d or some other sites that caught on, you lost this deal. Wonder how many new lines this produced for them.

I question their antics as well. We are assuming they wanted to pad their subscriber line #'s. Wonder why, if that was the goal, they didn't at least put the promo on their website at least.

Maybe it was as much about saving subscriber numbers as anything else, while getting a small boost in line #'s at the same time. . .by keeping us cheap deal hungry b'tards, those on SD and reddit etc., from jumping ship. Or jumping ship so often. I'm not leaving after getting 5 free lines total this year since I joined in June.

Don't know if they wanted to go full scale with the free line and incur that many additional free lines. They have to assume the regular joe doesn't know about these, and is happy paying what they think is a great deal, free 3rd line and 4 paid. . .

And their main hook for the regualar joe is add a paid line, get a phone deal and 2 or 2.5 year "contract" if not done at Costco (another smaller venue for them overall)

Did you add line at Costco?
Quote from eko427 View quoted comment :
T-Mobile One (FRLTUL4LP), no promo and I got a text but I also received another text later on that I was un-enrolled from a promotion. Contacted T-Force who said everything looked fine and the promotion for the free line was still active.

Talking to T-Force right now and they're saying it takes 1-2 billing cycles for the credit to appear and that I have to pay for it in the meantime. But that seems wrong since my previous 3 free lines had their credits appear immediately.
