Refer to these other threads if you want the in's and outs of getting the store rep to actually get $800 trade in value to pop up on their screen, etc. etc. They've really started on different aspects, and morphed into overlapping concepts to get the same or similar deal. . .

I drove for 20 minutes to a Best Buy the other day just to be told that my phone (Z Flip 3) was not on their trade in list, even though I said I did the same deal just a week ago at a different store. I argued for 20 minutes and didn't get anywhere, so the next day I went to a different store and got the deal in less than 10 minutes.
Not all Best Buy employees are trained the same, so don't be discouraged if one store says no, and just go to a different one.
Then, they may believe you but have trouble figuring out their system. When they pull up the model for the trade in, they have to go past the initial screen. When they do, the promo should show up. Then it's going to ask them for the promo code. That code is literally SAMSUNG. It's nowhere to be found otherwise.
I've traded in 3 phones under this promo because of the high values they're offering. Each experience varied.
1) First store did it without issue once I balked at the low trade in and mentioned the promo. He knew everything.
2) Second store couldn't figure out where the promo was and is responsible for the info I provided above.
3) Third guy refused, said they don't do trade ins and when shown the promo called his manager. Manager said Best Buy would have to be stupid to do this and refused. Lol. This was the same store as the first time, just different employees. Went to another store and they did it just fine.
Point is, the experience will vary widely depending upon the knowledge level of the employee. Just be polite and patient and stick to your guns. Most of them just aren't aware of the promotion or familiar with how to do it. One manager was so happy when I told her I thought I knew the promo code that she fist bumped me and thanked me profusely twice. Only one guy was a complete @$$.

or what would be the best approach to buy s22 ultra with tradein ? I have s10plus and tmo (no magenta plan)
Just got back from Best Buy where a knowledgeable rep was able to order a black S22 Ultra and a burgundy one. The black one was in stock so all he did was activate the sim and didn't even open the phone. The burgundy one was shipped to store so they can activate it. Picking it up Tuesday.
Used my two $800 gift cards and today there was no problem ringing up both of them for $899 each. I paid $365 for both out of pocket after using the gift cards.
I think whatever was the problem in their system the past few days might have been fixed.
I just went to best buy today and the rep said that I will have to activate my carrier through best buy, so $800 trade-in will be in form of bill credit.
My current S21 Ultra is also receiving bill credit for another trade in. If I trade in my S21 ultra, I will loose all remaining credit on it as per the rep

Yes you need to activate through your carrier, but that is activating an unlocked phone with your carrier, with all credits in lump sum up front. . .not bill credits.
Losing bill credits for current S21U you trade in depends on your carrier. Please specify your situation in full if you want a better complete answer. . .That includes your carrier, intended purchase phone if not S22U, trade in phone, trade in phone ownership status, etc. etc.

Don't see many trade in phones you could buy to get closer to the max $800 TIV, net, compared to S10+ you already own and have used. If by chance your area has a TMO ZF3 at BB for pickup in the next couple of days, it would be $499-S10+ trade of $220, plus tax, and option of grabbing a galaxy watch 4 series for $50 . .and get $800 TIV towards S22U in the end.
Please note, the sales price on the S22U and/or the free upgrade to 256GB ends Sunday night. So some other options normally feasable might not make sense vs. just trading in S10+ for $400 and getting sales price of S22u now.
If you could manage to find and get an Flip 5G in the next few days, the trade in on that is $800 as well, but cost might be $250-400+ locally or what is going to get to you by Sunday, and used flips seem to have many quality issues. . .

So 160$ out the door after the trade in, plus the $500 it cost to buy the Z Flip in the first place. Or am I missing something?

Just a one time payment of whatever wasn't covered by the gift cards.
All the rep did was activate the SIM card because that's what was required to get the phones for $899 each.
Maybe the rep you spoke with confused the unlocked version with the T-Mobile carrier version.

I already have a S22Ultra 256gb on order after trading in my Z flip I got for under 500 during the sale and XR trade + rewards, double-dipped that by getting the s22 ultra 256gb order in and paying the 99+tax difference.
I thought about it for a little bit and decided it was wiser to take the Note20Ultra 128gb pay the 99+taxes to upgrade it to another S22 Ultra 256gb than keep it.
Kinda wanted to keep the last "Note" named phone since I was a fan of the Note series since Note 1, but the more I thought about it, it was more about nostalgia than practicality, so decided to trade it since the S22ultra is every bit "Note" as the Note20 but better.
What will I do with 2x S22 Ultras? will prob keep one as a backup and possibly trade one when the next S23 Ultra or Z fold 4 deal or promo comes out.
