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!

What happens if you want to upgrade an 11 Pro w/ 8 months of remaining EIP credits of $14.17/mo? Does that mean I will lose the remaining ~$100 in monthly credits on my current device, or will i still be credited for them as long as I stay on TMO?

If I call T-mobile now and open an account over the phone, can I do order from BB website tonight? I am currently with Sprint and want to trade in my iphone 11. I am traveling tomorrow for a few days.

You still receiving your monthly credit as long as your line still active. I traded in 2 12p that still have like 17 months of credit left and have no problem receiving monthly credits. As far as TM, they don't care what you do with the EIP device.

I think I have reached the max order allowance. It said I have reached the maximum and need to cancelled the current order and place a new one. But I don't have any outstanding order to cancel. LoL. Have to use someone else account to place another order for 13. Able to find i12 for $450. Will check out the i12 and go straight to BB if the phone looks clean or else I just cancel it.

Bit of an update/backstory that ended up working out for the better:

Traded in my first 12 Pro for the 13 pro last week, all online. Worked but had to pay sales tax on $800 of it (SoCal). Total was ~$175

Tried doing it for a second phone and it worked, but had to cancel as I found out a closer store had it in stock. No matter how many times I tried, the verification code stopped coming in.

Went to the store and still had some issues, but they ended up working it out and I upgraded another phone successfully. Best part was the tax I was charged was only on the $100 due. Saved $65 doing it in store. I had my old SIM out and they were trying to charge me $10 for a new one, so I had them remove that.

For those with stock near you in CA, head to the store and try your luck there. You'll save on tax Smilie

True.

The issue with socal is that you have to sprint down there hoping no one would snatch it, either in store, or place an order online lol

we both lucked out

I've been lurking on this thread and just picked up a Blue Sierra 512gb 13 Pro Max using this deal. Here's my experience. Originally I backordered a Space Grey 256gb Pro Max on 11/17 for store pickup with an estimated arrival at 12/10. Then on Friday 11/19, during my periodic page refreshing, a Blue Sierra 512gb Pro Max popped up ready for pickup same day at a different BB. This color and storage capacity was my first choice however it was perviously out of stock with no backorder option. So I seized the opportunity and ordered it. I kept both orders until I was sure to have a 13 Pro Max in hand. Once I got the Blue Sierra in hand I canceled my other order.

The trade in was relatively easy. I traded my 11. I chose to have the BB employee activate and transfer my data for me. It took about an hour. In the end I had issues with cellular data and reception which I didn't discover until I left. I took it to a local TM and the tech there said the issue was 1) the BB employee needed to remove the old sim out of the old phone; 2) some iPhones don't like using the physical SIM card and prefers the eSIM. So after the SIM card was removed from the 13 Pro Max the phone worked perfectly.

Whats funny is the Blue Sierra was ready for pickup on 11/19 (same day as order) but I waited till today 11/20 to pick it up and this morning the Space Grey was ready for pick up (3 days after backordering)
