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!

Can't get the trade in discount to show up at checkout. Good deal but after taxes and new phone case, maybe not worth it for me.

iPhone 13 pro max 256: $1200
iPhone 12 Pro Max 256 trade in: -$975
Tax: $114
New Otter box defender case: $60


+$399 total real cash out.
It's hurt when you live in a state that charges tax on the full price. I live in GA and only being tax after the tradein.

The deal is ongoing as of now, but stock is flakey at best. Prob due to this is the first time that basically all plans are included/accepted after Tmobile started prioritizing the Mangenta plans.
Stupid, if you ask me. I know what they're trying to do... migrate the older, cheaper plans to Magenta. But they're forcing people who can see through this BS and purchase the money-making iPhones elsewhere. They will also start losing out on the 30-month promos, since they're not selling any. Without being "locked-in" to T-mo, it will be much easier to people to switch providers. I think that is why they're offering the $200 credit (over 24-months of couse) if you purchase the iPhone at Apple.

I, for one, will not purchase another phone through T-mo if it has a promotion paid out over X-months as a bill credit. I am going to wait it out till all my credits have been applied (May '23, I think), and seriously evaluate if sticking with T-mo is worth it. I've been a customer since 2005, but their repeated data breaches and the headaches that it is causing me (with constant fraudulent bank accounts being opened in my name) is getting ridiculous.

Your EIP will remain in tack and you can trade in your IP12PM. That is exactly what I did without any issues. I think I still have like 19 or so months left on the IP12Pm that I traded in and my EIP is still working as intended.

There's no real deal here. An extra $100 off retail price? Tmobile/Costco will have better deals later in the year

Tmobile continues to pay your credits as long as you keep that line active. I had done 2 trade in and both phones are still under EIP. The bill just closed and nothing has changed to my account and the monthly bill.

Sorry, can I confirm if this can be done in-store? I keep getting that error online. I have done this deal 3 times online. I wonder if that's a factor.

Was worried that I missed out on a great deal. I realize that they are not discounted $100 at best buy anymore. The promotional trade-in value essentially replaced the $100 off discount ran on the new iPhone 13s

I think the deal is that other plans outside of Magenta plans can take advantage of trade-ins at great prices. Tmobile, directly, will probably have better deals, but Simple Choice/older plans may be chopped as they already are.

I think you have to place the order online since stores most likely won't have them in stock. So you are basically placing a backorder and waiting for them to ship to the store.

The discount is still the same unless you live in a state that charges tax on the full price. So you have to take that into the consideration. I live in GA. I traded 12PM for 13PM and only being charged like 8$ in tax.
