You're referencing the T-Mobile deal? There is indeed a standard process by which the line level credits are migrated to account level credits so that you can continue to receive them on a monthly basis.

Good luck!

Only $50 more for an iPhone 7 Plus trade in. The $100 off deal was better.
Will wait for BF, if there isn't something better I'll wait for the iPhone 14.

I am wondering if this stacks like the apple trade in deal where you trade in with apple and get $790 for the pro max and the. $200 over 24 months with tmobile if you keep the current account (or $500 if you upgrade to magenta max)

Anyone know?

I am on a grandfather tmobile classic plan. I would trade in my 12 pro max and keep my classic plan. Will that allow me to get $975 at bestbuy for trade in and then $200 over 24months on bill credit with tmobile?
very sure, no stacking. That $200/$500 from apple.com is only from apple.com for tmo

Quote from pink_niru :
Is this for only new line activation only ? I just want to trade and get new phone
no new line activation required. If u already planning/wanting new line, costco tmo deal better.

Quote from uthorns1976 :
Friend of mine got free iPhone XR from AT&T. Safe to assume that it would qualify for trade-in????
yes, you can trade. During trade-in section, pull down at&t for the phone.

Quote from jigsaw918 :
Great deal, but I'm sorta surprised they don't offer trade in incentives for Galaxy phones. I'd think that would increase Apple's adoption rates and convert some Android users to iPhone
If u have tmo max or qualifying add-ons, galaxy phone trade-in can be upto $800 (eg note 10). Pretty cool ...but plan is slightly more expensive, unless u already have max or its qualifying add-ons.

Tmobile trade in plus 5 year customer discount
Yep so basically YMMV. I am a 15 year customer so I tend to get deals like this on phones, devices & lines/service. I currently have 5 free mobile internet data lines, 4 have unlimited data.

Can somebody tell me if I already have an iPhone 12 pro Max unlocked versiin usdd on tmobile 55+ 2 line plan, can I trade it in for iPhone 13 pro max? Do I need to open a new line or do anything else? Post says existing customers.

Also is t-mobile version same as unlocked version except t-mobile one is locked?

There's always the chance of a better deal. But this year the supply chain constraints might make it difficult to actually find stock.
Also, T-mo deals now have 2 tiers... one for Magenta and one for older, grandfathered plans. I wouldn't be surprised if BF deals will have the same nonsense. Just something to think about whether to hold out for hopes of better deals or jump on this one (which doesn't have the 30-month promotion, which is the modern equivalent of contracts).

I just saw they offer like a hundred more for iPhone XS than the last deal last month. Thank god it's not much of a difference. The phones aren't getting a $100 discount anymore unlike last month so I don't feel bad for getting on the deal last month..whew

Not sure if you could game the system this way but does anyone know if you can trade in multiple phones? @FatKidDeals on twitter has a link to an iPhone 8 for $188 on Amazon and the trade in value is $245. Could I in theory trade in say a iPhone 8 and my current iPhone XS towards an iPhone 13?

You can't place the order if you don't have an account with TMobile.
Right. So I'm giving the benefit of the doubt that they are inputting the info to cross-check with Tmobile's systems once again before you leave the store. It seemed like a normal practice for me, almost like going into a tmobile store and they having to take a picture of my ID before trading in a device.

So I checked the $975 trade-in breakdown on bestbuy checkout. It shows $775 trade-in allowance and $200 Trade-in Promotion.

I am confused now. Is it that they will give $775 instant trade in and then$200 bill credit or will it be $975 all upfront credit?
