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!

If you're trading in 12 pro max then that 5% pp offer shouldn't be a concern as you will just pay taxes on $124.99 so basically we are just talking about $6 over here. So better get it at the store. And also when you are doing 4 phones its better you request your account owner to come with you since getting 4 lines without an account owner can be tricky and they might now honor. But you can take a chance at the first go and then can seek the AO's help.
Wow. Lucky you. My online order for $125 total after trade in is still taxing me for $75. I am in Nevada. I am trying to find how It should be taxed but all I see is it should be on the reduced price. That's a hefty tax charge.

Nope. You will end up messing your ongoing credits. I wouldnt recommend doing that. I would suggest you to use any other line in your account which doesnt have any eip credits running. Then you can use the phone in your line.
What if you already paid off the EIP but there is still monthly credit ? I think it will be OK as I have multiple credits on my line.

I'm sure this question has been asked and answered here several times but,
What happens with my T-Mobile iPhone 12 mini promotion EIP that I still owe about $380 with 13 payments remaining. Will I still be getting bill credits for the trade in iPhone 12 mini?

Can you upgrade a line that already has a eip plan with earlier monthly discount on simple choice plan?
What do you mean? you are not upgrading a Line, just a phone and it won't change the EIP discount. Since you didn't pay the full amount you still owe them that amount.

The op likely means that, currently he has a EIP on his line and there is a monthly credit from a previous promo. With this BestBuy trade in deal, when adding to cart, we have to select "upgrade" and putting in an existing phone number. He is wondering if this upgrade will some how affect the existing monthly credit on this account.

Do they verify the actual TM line owner to be in store? I did it online as my folks prefer not to go in.
Also within online order i get to use PP, so I guess it kind of offset the sales tax part for me as I am getting 5% CB using chase pp.

Your thoughts? thx
I paid for a phone and picked it up - my wife was the official TMo account owner. I entered her last four SSN when prompted and she needed to screen shot a one-time code from T-Mobile and get it over to me while the Best Buy rep waited patiently.

It depends. Mine got rejected after 3 days and then i have asked them to resubmit it. Since this needs escalation or L2 override access.

I want to port two lines t-mobile. I added one of the lines to my cart. I tried to start adding a second iPhone for the other line but I got "This device can't be purchased along with the one in your cart.
Sorry about that. We'd be happy to help you purchase this device after you finish your current order."

I just wanted to confirm that I didn't do something wrong and that I need to submit two orders?

Any comments on the iPhone 13 vs 13 Pro?

Currently have a regular 12 - biggest issue is battery life with 5G, so I usually just disable it and use LTE.

The fancy screen doesn't really seem to matter much to me, but the camera setup seems like an impressive jump over the regular 13.

Do best buy executive open the phone and put sim card?
No, not unless you let them. If you want to back up your old phone in store, they will have to open it. I backed up all my stuff before going to the store. They taped my sim card to the iPhone box. I set it up at home. To activate, you still have to log into your BB account, and hit the "activate" button in the purchases section.

weird question - what happens if you want to return the phone? i understand you don't get your old phone back but how much would you get back for returning a 256gb iphone 13 mini? not quite happy w this purchase
Curious, why are you not happy with your purchase? Do you not like the phone or is it the terms of the deal that you are not happy with?

I guess you can stay and BB will transfer your data over from old to new phone
in the store.

BB will ask if you want your new phone activated and want them to transfer
your data.
I said no all 3 times.

No, I had backed my old phone up to my mac.
So I transferred when I got back home.
thanks for the useful information. We're thinking of backing it up on the mac and reset the phone to factory setting and just turn it in Smilie
