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 @$$.

i also plan to switch to a new t-mobile sim, how can i transfer contacts from old sim to new sim?
thanks!
Contacts usually aren't stored on the sim anymore but if yours are, just pop the old sim into the phone, transfer contacts to phone then switch sims and transfer them back to the new sim.

Old Phone: S20 Note 5G
Got 800$ GC for it, (They did not have one in stock at the first BB).
Unlocked Phone: 899$ - 256G Black S22 Ultra
Final Price: 175$ -- 99$+Tax
BB San Marcos, CA (Deal) - Had to pick up in Oceanside.
Took about 30m due to issues at the register but they knew exacltty what I was doing.

If they are close friends treating him or the family to dinner seems like suitable repayment in my book.
Like OP mentioned, I've done 3 upgrades like this, it doesn't affect his account in anyway that I am aware of since phone is paid in full and not a EIP or count against any future upgrade quota that I am aware of. It should be fine even if there were some quote it would be in excess numbers anyway.
Sounds like the deal is going away after tomorrow (seems was extended due to 3 day sale). I would act fast if it were me.
I roll on prepaid (mint) - so I think its best I just go thru samsung.com. The costs about equal the same if you figure in the cost of opening a new line. Definitely a steal if you are a current customer.
Buying the phone with New line activation with T-Mobile is only $799 - then cancel the line.
The phone is totally unlocked.
I have 2 unlocked s21+ phones i got them local for cheap and looking to get 2 unlocked s22 ulta 256 phones. How much would be the final price if i get one and whats the trick here? I tried to read the comments and I'm really confused about the Samsung promo and extended trade in. Please help. Thanks again!
