For iPhone 12 mini, trade-in value is $630 at Best Buy T-mobile iPhone 13 upgrade.
Unfortunately there was memo sent out this afternoon to all bestbuy stores to validate the unlock state before processing the trade in, or it has to be with the 4 carrier on their trade-in website. This was implemented around 2:30pm PST today.
Sucky unlock policy.

I was asking can you get this, take to costco and sign up for new tmobile but also get $300 for byod. Then next day go to best buy and upgrade/trade-in for $630 towards newer device

Few days later. But I'm reading that most people don't have any issues trading in locked phone. So, that could be a rarity. I feel like pulling the trigger.
Doubt that is legal to do a charge after the fact. Once they legally accept it, whatever the receipt says needs to stay.

I'm sure you can dispute that with your cc or go into the store and file a complaint.

Correct only the 13 Mini would be $70 plus tax after trade.

I think they're confusing 13 vs 13 mini

Wait for shipping early next week or pick up in store on Nov 26? What options are you guys planning to pick when ordering at BB? I only see tmo, vz, att, sprint and unlocked as trade-in options?

Yes it has been done many times, BB doesn't care about SIM lock. Only slight hurdle might be to activate Costco BYOD on IMEI numbers that show locked in their database but I know from experience that Costco can call in and override any problems. I actually did exactly what you did just with phones from a different deal -- opened new account with 2 lines at Costco under the promo and went to BB and traded both for 13 Pro about 3 hours later. No sweat
Thanks!

AKA, waiting in line to get in on BF, potentially getting into a fist fight over the last one, then waiting in line again to check out... decisions, decisions

does bestbuy adds any requirement to keep line open ?
costco 300 gc needs line open for 90 days i think.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank kwadguy

Reiterating because people keep spreading misinformation:

A) Cannot be unlocked by third party services
B) Must be activated on Straight Talk for one year to get unlock from the carrier
C) Can be "soft" unlocked using RSIM. Only unlocks the physical SIM slot, not the eSim. Soft unlock will last until/unless you reset the phone or take an update through iTunes. (No one in their right mind should be doing the latter at this point). RSIM will continue to work if you take an over-the-air update.

Nope. You pay on the spot and the phone is yours. Just make sure to select One-time payment.

have you tried the rsim recently? if so, which number?
I have an rsim 13 and it worked fine until about 4 weeks ago.
I haven't tried lately.
Will try on a locked XR once I get home from work

thanks
