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

laugh out loud I needed some help yesterday and one "foreign" guy connected to another "foreign" guy to try to help me...after an hour of this I fixed my issue on my own.

How many "foreign" guys do you need to fix your t-mobile issue?

Does it makes sense to switch from the magenta 1.0 to the new magenta before or after adding the new free line?
I got the free line (and phone) Wednesday and upgraded to the new Magenta today (Friday). The new discounts carried over fine.

If you have Xfinity internet, could you sign up for mobile phone with new number then port it out to tmobile? Xfinity uses Verizon network. it costs $15/month for xfinity.

Anyone can help? I set up a google voice free line and gave that number to agent but I get a text saying this number is not transferable and the rep asked me for account number for that port in number which I didn't have . She told me she tried anyway without account number for that line and later I got this text saying this number is not transferrable. Anyone can help.? I have ordered the iPhone SE but haven't received it yet and I gave the SIM card number to agent already
You need to setup a voicemail pin. Then unlock the number which costs like $3. The account number is the phone number and pin is the voicemail pin. This is the third time i have ported in a GV number. No issues at all.

Once your order ships the confirm email will have the IMEI listed as "Device ID"

I have Tmobile One with Plus Promo on all lines, hookup, etc (FRLTUL4LP t-mobile SOC code) and 8 lines with 4 being no cost after adding the latest no cost line yesterday at Costco. It was definitely more difficult today getting the reps to add the OnePlus Promo and kickback on the latest free line.

I know that to add more lines i would have to change to a new soc code but of course hesitant since every Tmobile rep is a potential trainwreck. Been reading how the bill drops once you get to 9-12 lines so I am thinking about it but really don't want to go through the hell of trying to correct problems as are sure to happen.

I guess now is the time to research and do so it gives time to correct the issues and be ready for the next free line promo.

What is the best soc code for me since my current one is FRLTUL4LP? I'm thinking about requesting a higher up manager since they have more privs and know the system better if I try this.

Now I am intrigued to do this add a line as people are saying once you get over 8 lines the bill gets reduced? Anyone upgrade to soc that allows more lines without major errors requiring hours to fix with tmobile reps?
Any luck finding answers or changing TM One max 8 to 9-12 plan? I am in same boat with same all promos.

I hope this did not create a cluster&^*. Rep changed the SOC code without asking nor confirming and now I don't see any promo lines. Got a few texts that said promotion has ended and then the same number saying I have been enrolled. Ordered a new phone on the new line with port-in and trade in. The temp number hasn't been assigned yet it seems. I provided my own SIM.

I will give it 24/48hours and do some breathing exercises before getting a heart attack... ;-) And a drink. Puh, if this works this all be the last one, too much time involved with this.
From what SOC to what?
