If you remove any paid lines within the first year, the free line loses the promo and becomes paid.

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.
My port-in was initiated during T439 promo period and completed today outside of the promo period. Without the port in (with only the added line and traded-in) I was on a bad promo. Once the port-in completed today, the system auto updated to T439 promo in my account --> promotions. Therefore, I don't think it was a requirement the port-ins must be completed by 3/24 EOB, just as long as they are initiated.
YES, you can use this sim in your iPad. I pay for 2 lines and have 3 free lines on promotion (5 lines total)
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

For real. I'm always afraid to touch anything out of fear of losing something.

Same...
I am in a similar situation, but went ahead and added the free line today. The account total didn't change and the new free line promotion (2021 Line on Us 6 (Additional Lines)) got applied to the account.

With this free line, I am in 7 lines for $140. I used to be $122 but My bro in law took his line and messed up my promotions although the cs confirmed me nothing will happen. Spent hours with T-Mobile in order to get me 6 lines for $140 and they said they cant set me back to $122 Frown

"Thanks so much!

So your current plan supports a maximum of 8 lines, but you can update your plan to one that supports 9+ lines, for sure.

However, while you would be able to keep all the 2020 Line on Us promos you took advantage of (nice going!) you would lose the much older 2018 Fall Add 2 line get One Line promo, so it would come out as paying for one more line in the end.

I know that means it may not be worth it to you, or you may want to do the upgrade to the 9+ line plan, paying for one more line, then you'll be sitting pretty to add more lines (maximum of 12) in the future if we have more free line promos (which seem to be coming pretty regular these days!) Let me know what you think! ^"
I was able to have them make my tmobile one take the 9+ lines and keep my old two free lines.

It was available however can't be combined with free line offer.

I was told following promos can't be combined with FREE LINE PROMO.

Google Pixel 4a 5g for $175
Half off on iPhone 11
and Free iPhone SE with add a line + port in which I was willing to do but was denied.

For all 3 promos listed above, I was told that I will need to add 2 voice lines, 1 paid and 1 free which I did not want.
The Google Pixel 4a 5g does qualify. I already got the order in.

Total is 350. 175 is for credits. Didn't you still have to pay out of pocket the other 175?

I'm on SC family unlimited (SCFUTTBD), This is my 5th free line. I've given the others to my family members. Combined this one with the $99 Galaxy A71 5G offer. I plan on replacing my car's hotspot phone (BLU) with this...

Also, for those wondering the SC plans do get 5G service.

It will be a total of $175, but it's on a 24 month plan. Each month I pay $7.30 for the phone for 2 years until it hits $175.
