I am about to switch carriers to T-Mobile.

Will I be able to take advantage of the $200 (new line) and $150 (new device)?

I am looking to purchase an Iphone 14 Pro Max, Iphone 14 Pro, and a Iphone 14. I will be trading in an Iphone 12 Pro max, Iphone 12 Pro, and a Iphone 11.

My current carrier is US Mobile.

Did you try to triple stack? As in keep and switch, $200 port, and Costco cash card?

I'm asking because it's well known that the keep & switch and $200 port in are not stackable. With wireless advocates you used to be able to stack $200 port in and cash card deals but now that T-Mobile is running its own kiosks I'm not sure if possible.

I didn't see this discussed here but my local store confirmed that this deal applies to BYOD Apple Watch. It will be $75 store card plus the waived $35 activation fee for existing customers.

I switched from prepaid a couple months ago and it looks like all promos have been renewed and are currently available. I think it's a slick deal.

$136/mo for 4 lines after 20% Insider Discount and 3rd Line free

= $3264 for 24 months service
-$800 Port In Rebates. (4 x $200)
-$100 AAA Rebate (2 x $50 since we're already AAA members)
-$600 Costco Rebate (4 x $150)
-$400 Netflix Credit. (Free for the same service I had been paying for 10+ years - so this freebie was full value to me)
-$120 YouTubeTV Credit. (I dropped Directv for YouTubeTV about a year ago so $10 off for 12 months is full value to me)
= $1,244 effectively out of pocket = $51.83/mo for 24 months

Much cheaper than TotalWireless.

And I got 4 free iPhone 14's after trade-ins. I didn't need new phones but I like having i) warranty for first year ii) new battery iii) nice resale value when my 24 months are up.

I have been thinking of switching to T-Mobile for a while and didn't realize that they were at Costco and foolishly walked right past one of their kiosks yesterday (some guy was yelling out about a free watch, I think). I assume that their free S23+ promotion is available at these locations, plus I get $150 from Costco and free activation? Would be worth going out of my way to go back to Costco, which is 40 minutes from my house. Is there any end date on the $150 Costco card promotion?

Danger! I just went through an ordeal where I was charged $500 for an Apple series 8 watch even though I showed the predatory Tmobile (careful, you aren't dealing with Costco here) commission salesperson the sale price of $329.99 3 feet away. Tmobile customer service is a joke, whatever their staked pirate salesperson said is the law. The Costco mgr took me back to the Tmobile desk, pulled out a notice of how I have the right to return it TO Tmobile even though cust service said I couldn't. Took several HOURS on the phone and dealing with a verbally aggressive salesperson to get out of this mess. I should have smelled a rat when after the "purchase" the phone and watch were UPS'd to my home instead of walking out the door with them. Tmobile was grinding their fangs that Costco denied them a restocking fee. Thank God for Costco.

Did you get the refund for AAA at the T-mobile kiosk? We have T-mobile for a while, and also have AAA membership.

No, I simply entered the code "2022AAAP1" and then the two membership numbers through the t-mobile promotions site. Expiration is: 12/27/2023

Unfortunately for you, there is a provision to redeem within 45 days of switching to T-Mobile service. Perhaps you could take advantage of the 1-year free AAA t-mobile promotion though?
