TMO doesn't want people doing what you're wanting to do.
To accomplish it, you would need to:
1. Add free line.
2. Wait a year + one day.
3. Port out paid line to another carrier.
4. Keep paid line active on another carrier for 90 days (to preserve number).
5. Port old number back in on free line.
This whole process has taken you 1.25 years.
I have 2 of my free lines in a iPad and a Samsung S4 tablet, with UNLIMITED data.
You have to call them and tell them you want to use the line (promo line) in a tablet but don't want to lose the promotion and you don't want to open a new line for this.
What they did for me, was block the phone service on the line and kept the messaging and data. That way I am able to use it in my tablet.
Every summer my daughter comes and visit from Germany. I take one of the sim card out of my tablet and put it in her phone..
I call T-Mobile and have them unblock the phone service. That way, my daughter has a phone while she is here in country.
When she leaves I call them back and get it blocked again. I have been doing this for close to 5 years. So I know for a fact it works.
Tomorrow I will be calling to try and get another free line.. (Fingers Crossed)
Hope this helps

I have been on this plan probably at least 3-4 years after 1-2 years on a Simple Choice before. T-Mobile One. Missed the hookup. Lost 2 free lines when I switched from SC to One or made some other mistake. Wish I would have kept that $5 5GB tablet line or whatever that was back in the days. You gain some you lose some...
We'll see what happens when I try to activate the 9th line online tomorrow ... I hope it's not going to screw things up. Straightening things up with executive escalations is not an instant event. I had a number port in issue once that messed up the account and don't want an episode like that ever again.
Note: There seem to be
Maybe that's were the differences lie?
