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 already mentioned this earlier. It clicks over at 12:00 midnight east coast if you arn't able to get a text from Best Buy. You will be able to enter you number and your SS and get a Green thumbs up but no matter what you do, you can't get a text. This will be solved over time. For me it was exactly at 12:00 midnight east coast. So if it still doesn't work, wait to order a phone at 12:00 midnight east coast.
Thanks close fan, it's been over 24 hrs, going on 48hrs, will try at 9p pacific time.. again.

It just sucks when some don't take the time to read a few
Thanks, but I just saw this slick deal on thursday, when it was already 300 pages of comments. I started reading from most recent first since I figured those comments were more up to date. I was kept reading people mentioning $20 plan works, so I quickly went and signed up for the plan though a call to Tmobile. I already had a new tmobile SIM card in hand so I didn't need to wait for them to ship me my sim upon opening my $20 plan. Ever since opening the plan, thursday morning, I haven't been able to get past the Best Buy screen where it asks for phone number and last 4 SSN. I'm not sure what page your comment about clicking on midnight is, but nobody has been able to provide that info after my questions on this issue until you just replied with it.

Just did the Straight Talk 12 Mini trade in to Best buy for 2 new iPhone 13's. They didn't have any 13 Mini's in stock. Total cost was $400 with tax after the trade-ins. I did the deal in store. I told them the phones were Verizon. Rep didn't ask much questions. Simple process. My plan is to sell one of the iPhones after getting them unlocked. I also have an iPhone SE 2 that I will sell which should net me around 1k. Basically got a free iPhone 13. Thanks OP! Repped!

For those who traded for max values: Did you skip the online order in that case? or did you place the order online and then go to the store? I already placed the online order, do you think they can give the 25$ order as a refund in store when I trade in there?

Also, noticed the S21 having higher trade compared to S21+. I have a S21+ - should i just indicate that this is a S21 to get the additional 100$

I have been with T-Mobile for 5 years. In the last 12 months I probably let them unlock 10 phones due to upgrades. This includes brand new iPhones on EIP and with promo credits. One time they asked me to wait 1 billing cycle after a new EIP which I was fine with. I have international SIM cards I need to use in those phones.
Via which method do you go about getting them to unlock your phones? Twitter (TForce)?

I went to the T-mobile store and had them setup 3 lines with the essential plan. They gave me 3 sim cards. I put one of the sim cards in to my crappy iphone se. This is important because when you go to best buy you are going to need a phone so the rep can text you a code to login to your t-mobile account.
