Still waiting for $430 promo to popup..
iphone 5 is now a $430 which is crazy
the main requirement is to obtain a rare 8 year old phone and whatever phone you upgrade to will be pro rated
the maximum credit per month as it states is $17.92/month x24 months
if you get anything else above that then you pay a difference
only catch is it's locked to t-mobile until it's paid in full but if you pay it off early then you void the rest of the credits over the remaining 24 months
I am chatting with TM right now to see what they can do.
Edit 1 : Paying off the device should not cancel the remaining credit : https://www.t-mobile.com/support/...6%20months).
How Recurring Device Credits (RDC) work
To receive Recurring Device Credits (RDC), you must purchase your device on EIP (Equipment Installment Plan) and meet any other requirements of the promotion.
You may have one Recurring Device Credits (RDC) promo per line at a time. To get a new Recurring Device Credits (RDC) promo and keep your current credit, you must pay off the existing EIP first.
If you pay off your EIP early, you'll continue to receive the promised Recurring Device Credits (RDC) as an account-level credit through the remaining months of the promotional credit period (up to 24 or 36 months).
Edit 2 : Chat with TM
Im sorry to hear about that.
Let me check here if we can cancel your payment and reinstate your installment plan, please hold on
Thank you so much for patiently waiting.
We are trying to process refund for the payment you've made as well as to reinstate your installment plan, it shows that the system is on the process for provisioning time to set up for the changes made on your account, will that be okay to provide me 24 hours to work on it?

Thanks, this advise worked for me!! Cheers
but paying off phone in full early vs waiting the 24 months, whats the difference - either you pay upfront and get the credits back over time or just have the monthly fee and credits balance each other out over time. at end of day, same amount coming out of your pocket.

This is how I've been doing it with mine and I've continued to receive bill credits. My bill is ~$20 for 8 voice lines.
edit: just checked, offer is gone.

1. Login into your account
2. Goto shop
3. Choose iPhone SE (if it gives a popup, select add a new line/device option and not the upgrade device option
4. Follow through the steps. ( if you already have a phone with tmobile on that line, just select your phone line and instead if replace your current device select trade if a different device)
5. Sign EIP, review order and done.
6. Once you get the device you can then ship your trade in device.
Hope this helps.
