No one in the thread so far had confirmed a couple things that worked for me, so I wanted to share my experience:

TLDR: Upgrading a line on Verizon gives another $250 discount, on top of the $250 sale on the phone. This can be done not only for in-stock phones but for orders, as well, but it must be new- not refurbished/open box.

Long version:
As has been covered, the discount for turning in an S21 is technically a $600 coupon + $200 gift card. The phones we turned in were Verizon locked, and we purchased unlocked ones.

We upgraded my wife's S21+ to an S22+ 128GB, and I ordered a refurbished S21 off amazon for $300 and upgraded it for an S22+ 256GB, which the store ordered and I can pick up next week. At Best Buy, for each upgrade we paid $0 and received a $200 gift card.
For her 128GB phone, since the cost was 999-250-250=499, we essentially "wasted" $100 of the $600 coupon.
For my 256GB phone, since the cost was 1049-250-250=549, we essentially "wasted" $50 of the $600 coupon.

Of course, Verizon always charges you $35 every time you upgrade a line. Overall, though, being able to walk into the store with her S21+ and walk out with an S22+ and a $200 gift card is definitely the slickest phone deal I've had. And buying a $300 phone for myself so I could also get a S22+ and a $200 gift card was also excellent. I'm not sure how long the $250 carrier activation discount is good for, but hopefully it works out for some more people!

Finally, it's worth mentioning that our best buy (Columbus OH, Easton) let us smart switch data from her old phone to her new one, but it took forever, and some people have reported in this thread about charging for the data transfer. Just use smart switch to back it up on your computer before you go and save yourself the hassle/haggling.

Big thanks to everyone who shared info on this deal!

My BB rep couldn't get the $250 Tmo discount to apply to a pickup/delivery phone order, so I went with the 128 GB variant they had in stock. He also couldn't apply the "extra" $91 promo value to accessories or the gift card so that is essentially lost unless you choose a more expensive phone (like the Ultra or 256 S22+ if they have it in stock).

So, start to finish, I bought a used locked S21 128 from Amazon for about 320, and got the S22 128 and $200 BB gift card. I did go through with a cheap case and screen protectors for $15x2, but it's totally worth it to try to keep BB doing this promo in the future Smilie

***If you have Verizon, the Samsung rep said they are offering the TIV deal plus 250 and another 250 for upgrades. This would likely net a $450 BB GC if buying same phone and trading same phone. EDIT: Judging from the post above mine, the Verizon discount is equal to Tmo, just an extra $250 with "loss" of value unless you get a pricier phone.

Final OOP cost ~$120 plus the time to research and have the BB rep try several attempts to do the 256 variant and try to apply lost value, etc.

$200 BB GC and phone in hand...I'm a happy camper!

Sorry to everyone who have terrible experiences with this. The BB I went to was a great experience, essentially going above and beyond to try to maximize the value for me. All I had to do was be patient and walk the reps through the steps that you all shared on here. Good luck and happy holidays!

My BB has trouble getting this offer and tradein value. Any idea what they should do? I am at the store now
During the trade in process, on the screen where they first see the $100 something dollar value without the promotion, they need to enter "samsung" into the promo code box on their screen.

Agreed. It took 1hr to figure that. It was pulling $130 until then

Saw someone selling an s21 with a dirty imei number. Does anything think I can still trade that in and not bite me in the ass later?

I was able to return the S22+ i ordered 2 days ago and rebuy with trade in of my s21. No issues. My best buy had a samsung rep who did the trade in for me. It was easy, no drama..the data trasnsfer took some time but I am happy that I have left over $41 BB gift card and brand new phone.. (600$ discount + 200$ gift card - 749$ phone cost - 9$ tax) I am with prepaid service and was not looking to open a new line with tmobile as I did that last year for my S21 and just wanted to avoid the hassle. Awesome deal !

Should I trade in a S21 ultra to grab the S22+?

Looking to get the S23U so wondering if trade in value would be more for S21U or 22+ when that time comes around in early 2023.

After 799 - 250, I was taxed on the remaining 150 (so about $165) I had to pay. He applied the 200 GC and I was left with a $35 remaining GC Balance.

Isnt it $749 after $250 off?

The message appeared when applying the coupon with code "Samsung". I have no idea what it means. So my trade in was not successful. I will try again tomorrow at a different store.

Activation isnt required. They even offer a bundle with Visible, I doubt they get any commission for that

Everything I've ever had shipped FedEx goes through Memphis. That's their big hub.
