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

1st one that started yesterday.
Line 1 & 2: Paid
Line 3: Free (3rd line free promo from before)
Line 4 to 6: Free (free line promos in 2020)
Line 7: Paid (recent costco $300 deal for byod)
Line 8: Free (buy one get one with the costco deal)
I do plan to cancel lines 7 and 8 once I receive the costco shop card. Is it worth adding this new free line? Will it affect my ability to cancel line 7 and 8? I am hoping none of these affect my discounts on lines 1 to 6.
DUE MONTHLY
$ 40 00
Additional line on Simple Choice Promo
Plus taxes and fees.
Does it means I will have to pay the $40, and it will not be free?
Doing a search of this thread, some people were denied and some were approved. It seems to be on a case-by-case basis. I gave the rep my phone number, the account number (phone number), my pin and she ran a check and said it would work. I didn't even mention it was a Google Voice number.

I couldn't do it online either. I chatted with them over the app and mentioned the promotion. They checked and said my account allows it. Try that.
I'm debating switching my Magenta 1.0 to the New Magenta (which everything should stay the same - free lines, costs), but I read that having 9 lines would move me to Magenta9 (?) anyway AND actually making the total cost low? If so, then I won't need to cancel line 7 after a year...

The SOC is TM1PROMO
Again, this is not a plan but an add-on.
You can port in numbers from Google Voice without the problem to bring a number over.
But the Google Voice system is blacklisted for port-in promos.
So you won't have problems to port in your number from Google Voice but there is a risk that the device promo will drop within 2 billing cycles.
It might work or not. You will see.
