Up to 830 is because if you buy 12mini it will have trade in credit or only $730 and not $830 and it you buy 12pro or pro max then you will only get $830 and rest will be on you. That's what upto $830 means so yes iPhone 8 will get you upto $830 depending on the device you choose
Where is Costco? They use to have similar deal as Tmobile but not lately. Wonder if we didn't kill the golden goose by canceling "new line" after getting the rebate.
For those of you trying to get a phone from SWAPPA like a iPhone 8 or S9 series, make sure you do order from an individual seller where the item/images clearly display the listing number.

In that case it's a unique listing offer and the IMEI will be displayed on the sales page right after your purchase. If you order good quality or spend $10 more for mint you should be golden. Once purchased on the sales page you will see the serial number (IMEI):

If you order from an enterprise seller with generic images and none displays the unique listing number the IMEI will NOT show up and you may have to wait until they are back in the office on Monday and the deal could be over.

I accidentally ordered regular Pro 128Gb instead of Pro Max 128 Gb. Please advise, if there is a chance to fix this situation. I used trade-in of course.
Thank you, everyone who advised me. I chatted on T-Mobil app with an agent. She was able to cancel my order where i made a mistake. She said she would refund and re-odered the correct model using the same item for trade-in. Now I just wait for a new EIP contract by email to sign.

Went to Costco after reading another users experience from this thread.
The place was PACKED but the wireless Kiosk center was empty.
Very nice associates.
Upgraded 2 lines to the 12 128gb. Will be shipped to me and get here in 5-7 business days. I am in no rush.

Traded in 2 iPhone 8's that I purchased from past cricket deals.
2 payments were done. 1 was for $116 tax for the 2 iPhone 12's and the other was $100 for the 2 GB upgrade, from 64gb to 128gb

Wish the limit was 4 like past deals.

Print outs for the $30x2 Costco cash cards printed.

I hope they have a similar fathers day deal!!

I included a pic of the Costco sheet that has the list of phones and their values as well as a screen shot of the text message tmobile sent me for the trade in. It's $82 per iPhone 8 since I have the 128gb version iPhone 8.

Today is the last day for the deal.

Quote from KentC7765 :
I received trade in value for my phones $130 for one and $30 for another, they applied this towards my sales tax. Is this trade in value in addition to the $830 of credits that I would receive in the next 24 months?
No total credit is $830. In your case 830-130=700 for the first one. 830-30=800 for the second one.

Can't you do the equally good Samsung deal?
Though I guess the A71 is only worth $400 in that deal.
Honestly I'm trying to get off of Samsung. Hate how they put ads in their apps and have short update lifespans.
Quote from lowmazda :
The A71 doesn't have a good trade in value. The Mother's Day promo for the Galaxy series doesn't even allow an A71 as a trade, even at a reduced value. I bought an A71 from Samsung last year for trading in a busted screen S7. Got it for $199.

I just used the A71 to trade up to the iPhone 12 Pro on this promo for one of the people on my acct.

How much do you really like it would be the question.
Yeah I'm aware of the trade-in value of the A71. IMO the A71 is a mixed bag, but might be worth considering the iPhone 12 just to trade that in for something else. Do need to keep in mind the hassle of trading in and the taxes paid each time though.

Using an iPhone 11 for work, which is why I don't like iOS.

If this ends today, then it's already too late for me.

Will not be doing the deal. But wanted to check what details it had in #1385 post. Instead of asking one more question :-)

Don't do what I did today. I almost threw my laptop AND my existing iPhone 11 Pro over the absolute waste of time spent on this F$%#! deal.

1.) Study the math on the T-Mobile offer to determine how they're applying the credits
2.) Attempt a trade-in with my existing iPhone 11 Pro, realizing I can do so with a far cheaper device
3.) Attempt to locate a cheaper device, but none remain with friends or family
4.) Purchase an iPhone 8 on Swappa to apply to the trade, but not receive the IMEI because it was from an Enterprise Seller, who are not required to disclose said IMEI
5.) Register an account on SD and post about it, realizing everyone here has already purchased the remaining "cheap" eligible phones from individual accounts using Seller 2.0 on Swappa. You guys always beat out someone like myself who takes far too much time to study the deal.

I just wasted $230 and am going to walk away from this opportunity, despite having two eligible lines for the purchase. Absolute waste of a few hours today.

You can still order it online. Of course, that's if you want the iPhone.

I know. use a $150-200 phone for trade in and sell the X
That's an idea except I already ordered it. Would I be penalized for doing a switcheroo?

Probably midnight PST, but as long as your receipt shows today's date, you will have proof when talking to care in case for some reason you don't get enrolled in the promo.

So if T-mobile accepts locked phones, what's to stop someone from trading in say an at&t locked phone that's still under contract but in good standing and the phone not blacklisted but down the road defaults and gets blacklisted later?
