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!

Here's a question:

-picked up 13 pro max and when I purchased online the line I used is my wife's line and she's traveling out of the country. They didn't activate the phone yet because I told them not to. So if I turn it on is it gonna automatically tie to that line and render the phone she has with her useless? Or can I simply put in a different sim from another one of my current T-Mobile lines ?

Once you get the phone you can swap lines with whatever sim you want. Or not assign it to a line at all. This is how people do this deal multiple times with one line.

Technically if they didn't activate in store you could even put a different carrier sim in the phone and I think it would automatically lock to whatever carrier it is

Quote from F1946 :
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.
I requested an unlock for a Costco phone via Twitter and it was immediate. My wife used Facebook for a Best Buy phone on Saturday morning and it is still locked. That one was farmed out to a third party - perhaps because I did the in-store portion using my wife's account upgrade? Who knows?

Worst case scenario was 40 days after first activation on TMo account which seems to be standard TMo policy.

Has anyone bought a phone for in store pick-up at a location that was not the closest location to you, and then see stock at a closer location? Did you just cancel the original purchase, and purchase the phone at the closer location? I'm assuming it won't allow me to get another one until I cancel the original.

Just ordered one online for my wife. I chose to port in the number to T-Mobile. Provided all the old account number & pin. But at check out, the T-Mobile order summary gave me a brand new phone number instead -- is this normal? Or does that mean the porting failed?

You will always get assigned a temporary number so you can still use your existing number until you're ready to fully port.
