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

This happened to me when they migrated my plan from Magenta 8 lines to 9-12 lines to 2020 LOU3. The 2020 3rd LOU3 and 2020 LOU2 got lost. The rep also told me 3rd LOU3 cannot combine with LOU3. But when I added a line in Dec, instead of getting 2020 LOU4, I got 2020 3rd LOU3. T-Mobile system is weird.
2020 Line on Us 3 - 20Q43P
2020 3rd Line On Us 3 - 20Q33S
2021 Line on Us 6 - 21Q14S
It may not help as my experience. Even though I shared with the rep that 3rd LOU3 can stack with LOU3 for some other accounts with screenshot, the rep said she can not talk with other accounts with me for security reasons and insist that LOU3 cannot stack with 3rd LOU3. Good luck, anyways.
Thank you so much for sharing, and your experience. Yes, i have been fighting with them for over 5 months, hope it will resolve (as their last reply that will take care).. but time will tell. worst case i will just cancel that supposed to be free but now paid line.

Repped.

I used freedompop number myself for port-in and the promo was applied successfully the same day. If you activate freedompop GSM, it is on AT&T network and no issues on port-in. All you need after activation (GSM) is chatting with rep online to obtain account and pin information.
how long does it take for you to port in freedompop number? I did this evening but its not yet complete. In my account its asking me to call , when i call tmobile saying everything good from their end and waiting for response from other side.

Does it makes sense to switch from the magenta 1.0 to the new magenta before or after adding the new free line?

Is the Galaxy A11 one of the phones you get free if you add the free line and have no port in?
Yes, but I advise getting the Moto G Play. More up to date. I have the A11 and they are garbage even for spare phones.

It took 14 days for me last time I did it during the December free line promo.. They consider freedompop number as a landline number

Quote from fithos :
No doubt risk.
But we have a situation here where people are struggling, begging for port numbers. Most of the other port in revenue such as Freedom pop and such are also risky as they can be from T-Mobile also. Only surefire and reasonably price as of now are cricket and visible. They are going fast.
Someone should create a wiki of a reliable port in source, cost, effort.

Things on our side is.
1)Google voice has always work for me. I can use that excuse
2)If the port was not valid for the promo, it should have rejected it flat out, not seeing the promo applied today and gone a month later.
3) Do the promo via chat. Let them confirm the promo is valid
Absolutely brilliant and wonderfully said
