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!

I placed an order on order on BestBuy mobile site at pick up location where there was plenty of availability. I just got an email as from BB -
We had to cancel your mobile order.
We were unable to activate the device you purchased on our site, so we had to cancel the item(s) included in your mobile package. We will now begin processing a refund for your payment.

Any idea what this is all about and how to proceed next?

Tried ordering online with trade in and got it cancelled.
Tried ordering online without trade in and it was cancelled.
Tried ordering in store and it was cancelled.

What's going on?
I got the same email form BB. I ordered online with trade-in. Were you able to figure out what's happening? How did you get around it?

But what happens if you still owe money on the trade-in phone?
You keep paying for it. It is a debt you owe.

Did you try adding the "free appointment to setup phone" option right before checkout?
Does selecting this option make a difference?
"free appointment to setup phone" option right before checkout.
People who successfully got their phone on T-mobile select this option or not?

Can you make different orders on the same line just to get one successful since they keep canceling ?

I had the same thing happen to me, first time yesterday morning Chase declined the charge due to 'suspicious activity' so I put a second order in using Discover, that got cancelled too. An hour on BB phone customer service was useless,same calling tmo. I'll just try again and see if whatever the glitch is works itself out.

I did 2 online orders got this on order #1 but order #2 went through fine. I simply re-did order #1 again for the same item at the same store with same phone number and it worked fine the 2nd time. We pick them up tonight but have 2 emails from BB saying phones are ready for pickup. So I suggest just trying again.

I have SC and military magenta. Both work just fine. So the rep that you spoke with is clueless.

If I have a t-mobile account, can I trade in with a non t-mobile phone for an existing line? Basically get a phone outside and trade in?
