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!

Which $975 are you talking about? $975 is given on trading iphone 12 pro max only and that will be upfront instant credit. If you referring any deal which is done directly at tmobile store or online then its bill credit.

I just did the deal in store trading in 12 pro max and iPhone 11 for iPhone 13 pro max and iPhone 13. Though I am seeing messages where people successfully unlock the devices within 48 hours , what is the usual policy for the unlock request , 2 months service ? Is there any charges if I cancel the service within a month if my device is unlocked instant ? Just wondering what is the required contract and obligation with T-Mobile as the devices are paid in full with trade in . Appreciate any insight

The $975 bill credit is instantly applied , which is what makes this deal better as opposed to bill credits. Your new 13 pro or 13 pro max order will adjust this credit and you will end up paying only the difference

The unlock policy of Tmobile is 40 days. You are not obliged to use the service for any certain no of days and there are no charges if you cancel the line at any time. So first get the device unlocked the device from tforce in social media platforms and then once unlocked you are free to go/stay or whatever.

Thank you … just to confirm , if I am able to do successful unlock through Tforce , I can cancel my service and come out before my 2nd month service , right ? Just wanted to make sure , tforce unlock is not something temporary where T-Mobile will lock the device after some time for not meeting the policy or some thing .

Yes you can cancel the line if you want once the device is unlocked. They will not lock it back because its a fully paid device and currently in these cases tmobile will be routing the request for unlock to apple team who will be unlocking it. Usually devices bought directly from carriers have their own servers set up which communicates for unlocking request.

Inshort they will not relock the device.

It may well be but this deal via Best Buy, as even detailed in the original post, both the 13 and 13 mini were $799

So what is your point? Maybe the price for mini hasn't updated for quite sometime on this thread. As of right now, BB shows $699 for the mini. If you want to get the phone, go ahead and order it.
