I have an S21 Ultra, and felt that byuing this would be a downgrade based on the comments and reviews.
I went back to my note 10+ after using the Fold 3 for a few days.
Reasons:
not car mount friendly
not pocket friendly
watching video is not much better than my note 10+

I had the Ultra, as well. Tried out the Z Fold3 and just couldn't get use to using outside screen and eventually went back to Ultra.

Yes, call corporate office and file a complaint before letting me cancel
Was this for a new line? Did you have to pay any activation fee?

Oh, that makes sense. So Paypal is probably the best payment method if I needed to make payments, correct? Or can it be financed through Samsung?
Samsung will not finace this deal. Paypal or personnal credit/debit card would be your best option.

Now if you have "Best Buy" Credit options that would work also.

just got mine. I'm debating putting in the t-mobile sim (I opened a new account).

did t-mobile begin charging me as soon as I purchased the device? meaning maybe 2 days of service already, despite me not having the phone at all?

Yes they do. I have notice on my next billing the increase for adding a new line. Will debate this with T-mobile (cancelling the new line). I have yet to active the fold z and will visit T-mobile to active sim with current phone #.

I'm not sure if you are trolling or not, but I'll answer you in good faith.

Upgrading the phone means getting rid of your current phone and buying the phone that you see on the best buy Page in front of you at the price they have listed which is probably 1099.99 for you with the 800 discount. Do not need to trade anything in for the price.

No one else is going to help you with the transaction, not T-Mobile, you just are upgrading and paying in full. Best buy will attempt to verify your T-Mobile account first in order for you to upgrade. Since their system is garbage you may have to try this a few times.

Not trolling. Looks like I am eligible. Just want to make sure if I upgrade, I am not upgrading any plan or line or any changes to the account.

So looks like its just like buying a phone if you are a eligible t-mobile customer.

Quote from Ananke :
An expenditure of $1000 can hardly be called STEAL Smilie
It was a STEAL to get free iPhone12 Pro on postpaid TMobile in May, and upgrade it for $100 to unlocked iPhone 13Pro via the Best Buy promo last months. I've got several. Switched from five generations of the top Samsung Galaxies, because the deal was a steal Smilie.
This folding phone may be considered novelty, in my view it seems a waste.
Link to the free 12 Pro deal?

You are correct nothing will happen to your plan. No line will be added either. Once you activate the phone it will show as the phone on your current line

A few posters above you had success, one poster did not. I'd trade someone my Ultra s21 for a basic S20 plus like a 100 bucks if I knew it worked

I went to bestbuy store and with upgrade option higher trade in values are not coming up in the system. Do they need manager override or does it work for new lines only?
