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 you just show up with your old phone, trade it in, and leave? Do you have to set up the new phone in the store?
This was what I did. I backup everything to icloud and pc. Disable the login passcode. Signed out apple ID. Once they finished with their paperwork and handed me the new phone, I just pressed reset, handed them the old phone and out the door.

Thanks good to know. I was planning on coming to the store with an "empty" phone and just reset it after they verify it's working.

Hopefully you can! I didn't need to, and I know 'activation' is part of the deal, so I think the rep was trying to be helpful by getting everything working before I left the store.

I already did 2 tradeins from 2 locations and the same processes every time. They input my DL and a few scanning. Reset my old phone when they handed me the new one. Got home, pop in the old simcard, restore from pc and good to go after restore was finished.

I get all the way through the process online and then I get an error and can not complete the payment process, very frustrating. Can you do this all in the store?

Yep. The payment portion is all done. It's just a matter of them taking the trade-in and activating your new device. It's not an ideal upgrade process because they take your old device at the same time so it makes transferring data not ideal, but my rep was suuuuper patient with me (the store was also dead), and I was able to keep the trade-in until the new device was up and running. Notate your iCloud password (I didn't know mine without a password manager), and if you run into activation issues, know that you can likely fix the issue without needing to call in by using your online account and inputting the new SIM number: https://www.t-mobile.com/support/...sim-cards. [t-mobile.com]

If the activation process is quick, the the whole process is fast.
nevermind question answered elsewhere in thread already.

what kind do you want? i liked the leather cases from Apple for iPhone 12 Pro Max, in saddle brown w/ magsafe. sadly, they don't make that color for the iPhone 13 Pro Max, but I found one on eBay by a 3rd party that looks to be pretty good and will give a try at half the price:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product...UTF8&psc=1

As for screen protectors, I prefer tempered glass. most available have a cut-out for the notch, but there are some that have nearly full coverage, except small cut-out for the ear piece/speaker. I prefer the latter. some people say without a cut-out you may run into some issues with slower sensor detection or even failed detections, or lens flare in photos with the selfie cam. I'm just going by amazon reviews and picking one that has what i think will be the best tool for applying the protector evenly.

I too have an existing tmobile plan. you can upgrade phone on an existing line with this offer and you get the instant trade-in value off. if you do online, at checkout you can pay the remaining balance.

Phone is locked but you can call Tmobile to unlock it after it's paid off.

Why do people post questions that were just answered?

Why do people post questions that are explained in the offer?

Why do people think this is a good place to talk about which model to buy?

Why do people think they can rant and rave because their 10 year old phone is not on the list?
