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!

yes and yes. i gave ssn but was told it is not a hard pull since i paid off.
Was it just one line? I'm thinking of getting multiple lines (new account), but can't figure out how to get multiline discount on TMobile lines.

The salesperson in best buy said so. In my previous experience a hard pull drag down credit score about 25. Mine is over 800 so I don't really care. Thanks for the mint comment.
Strange - my TMo locked phone had no problems running a Tello card. Not sure why Mint would be different than other MVNO.

Just walked out from best buy store with a red 128GB mini. They failed to activate in the first time for unknown reason. I traded in an iphone se from cricket for $380. Total out of pocket is $358 (699 - 380 trade in +10 sim card + 28 tax). I was told the essential plan $65 bill after tax will arrive after a week or so.

I have never been in tmobile in last 10 years but used tmobile mvno like mint and lyca mobile a lot. Will this phone work in mint right way? How long do I have to stay in tmobile?
Yeah. Mint works right away if you eSIM or put a physical SIM in it. Still locked to other carriers though. Not sure about how long you'll have to stay in T-Mobile, but if you're asking regarding unlocks, some people spoke with the carrier and either had it unlocked right away or had to wait a few days.

For unlocking phone, you can talk with T-Force through Facebook or Twitter to request unlock. No need to wait for 40 days. A lot of success cases already. I got my 3 iPhones unlocked without any problems. Just ask for unlock and they will submit a request for you.
Is that "T-Mobile Help" in Twitter?

Anyone else getting the issue once the site tries to connect with T-Mobile when you put in your phone number and SSN where it just gives you an error and tells you try again later?!?

The Gold Pro was available in midtown on Sunday but I don't really like that color. I got a red regular at Fordham Ave, which is quite far from me but I'll be driving north on Friday so I'll just pick it up then

Do you know if the phone will be locked to Mint (if that's the first SIM I use)?
