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!

I see... so you're the type who has to have their hand held every step of the way.... because they are too lazy to make any effort themselves.

can you do installment instead of paying outright? Want to take advantage of 5% back from my credit card on phone bill, and not planning to upgrade in the next two years.
Any changes if you do? Like credit pull or something

Thank you. I wouldn't have tried it without others mentioning it. I forgot who was the original person to try the ATT method with these iPhones.

One of the reasons I don't mind helping out fellow sders. Many have helped me throughout the years and by posting crazy deals such as this one and also combined with the $300 12 mini deal

It just sucks when some don't take the time to read a few pages

I just got iphone13 and after inserting sim I see carrier lock - 'No SIM restrictions' on the phone. Does this mean the phone Is unlocked or does it get locked later?

I mentioned awhile ago that flex lock phones will unlock with inactivated att sims. I still haven't been able to get in on this deal yet haha. Still waiting for friends T-Mobile account to go through.

Just completed BB online for a 12 mini trade in and paid only taxes of $84.37 in Cali on a 128gb 13pm but wondered how they calculated tax. Anyways it says pickup later today but my 12 mini has not arrived yet so is it ok to wait? I thought I have a few days?
I think they calculate tax on full price -$200 bonus amount for the trade-in.

Iphone XR Trade in Value has gone from $420 -> $400 for all memory sizes. Dunno if this is one of those, temporary things or what.
It was 420, 410 now 400. It might be temp as 12 mini was 630-600-630 again few days later

I'm a long time sprint customer with 3 lines. Looking at taking advantage of this deal on 2 of those lines. I just activated 2 of my current iPhone 11s on the T-Mobile network by swapping Sprint SIM cards for T-Mobile SIM cards. Trying to place an order online via Best Buy is failing at the T-Mobile account / last 4 of SSN stage which I guess makes sense as I am still on a Sprint plan.

I'm assuming I need to migrate my 3rd line to the T-Mobile network (this is an old 3G flip phone) first before my plan be fully migrated to a T-Mobile plan from Sprint and take advantage of Best Buy's upgrade offer? I've asked T-Force on twitter but was unable to get a straight answer. Was told I'd need to contact their migration department via phone in order to migrate from Sprint to T-Mobile (both network and billing platforms). Does this all sound right or is there an easier way to go about this?

If you already have a sprint account you can't sign up or have a T-Mobile account. Even though sprint is T-Mobile it's how it is. I'm with sprint so I have to use a friends T-Mobile account or else I would have signed up myself. Not sure how migration comes into play and if you can order after.
