I'm Hanzelnuts, I was mentioned in the Wiki. You guys are lucky because Spectrum is excepting a lot of older phones as trade in for this promotion. A Note 4 is now worth $35 + $600. That's crazy.

I did this promotion 2 months ago. Traded in my Note 9 for $27 and Iphone 8 plus for $12. Note 9 was the oldest they will take back then and so was the iPhone 8. I had a Note 4 that didn't qualify. I had to buy the IPhone 8 for $90 to do the trade in.

I went in the store and paid in full for S23 Ultra and S23. Contrary to FatGuyPoolShark, I like many people, had to send in our trade-in to Assurant. You'll be lucky if the store accept your trade in. It has to be sent in.

Anyways, I have Spectrum internet. There was a promotion of buy one unlimited line for $29.99 and you'll get one line free. For those that didn't get this promotion in their email, ASK THE REP at the store if you can get that promo. Chances are, they'll say yes.

I was able to unlock my 2 phones within one week. I called and asked if they could unlock them and the agent unlocked them while I was on the phone with her. You might want to say you're traveling and needed them unlock.

Assurance emailed me and says my phones were accepted as trade-ins. But instead of $27 for my Note 9, they only going to pay me $15 reason being it was late. It wasn't late, as they received it within the 30 days required to mail in.

I have a credit of $1227 with Spectrum right now. I'm too busy to call and ask them to credit them back to my credit card. It shouldn't be a problem though.

Feel free to ask any questions if need to.

I bought a Cricket Wireless Moto G Pure (2021) from Walmart today @ $24 for Trade. Spectrum's trade in system doesn't list it when I choose Cricket as a carrier, but does when I choose "Other." I entered the IMEI and all, got a trade in value of $600+$10.

Question: Will it matter that it's a Cricket Moto G Pure (2021) and not an "Other" carrier's Moto G Pure (2021)? Should I return it and get an AT&T Moto G Pure (2021) that Walmart's selling for $30?
YMMV of course. They didn't ask for the carrier in store for me. Just entered the IMEI and that's it. Even in the email receipt, it doesn't mention carrier. See belown

I did, and the s23 immediately said it had to reboot. After reboot, the phone and msgs worked as expected as an unlocked device.
Thanks

I have to mail-in my old iPhone SE to get the $600 credit. Has anyone gotten the credit while the sim card is on another phone? I have no plans to use the S23 but I don't know if Spectrum will deny the $600 credit when they see their sim card is on a different phone. My Spectrum account shows "Generic Devices" when I go to Manage Your Mobile Lines.

Thanks, followed your advice and checked my trade in email. Noticed it specifies the model number as "XT2163-6." I believe the Cricket variant is XT2163-1, so based on that last digit, they could likely deny it.

For anyone else looking to get a cheap last minute trade in phone, it looks like the AT&T prepaid Moto G Pure (2021) is the XT2163-6 variant. Currently $29 at walmart.

Ordered the att prepaid one for pickup at Walmart tomorrow, will return my unopened cricket one. Received the "Information Needed for Recent Order" email from spectrum on my order today with the cricket moto, so conveniently I can avoid cancellation headaches by simply not not giving it, then reorder with IMEI from matching model number att version.

I got in before the system crash, was able to unlock 2 S23+ phones via phone call. Only took about 3 minutes total, all I said was that I just finished paying off my phones and would like them unlocked. Got the system message indicating they were unlocked, but then I got another message on my main line only saying the phone was locked and to call customer service. Checked the network unlock status and both show as unlocked, so not going to worry about that second message.

Their system has been crashing like 3 times in 7 days. I've been there the last 3 times and it crashed.

How long does it take the trade-in credit to show up in the account?
My mail-in packages was shown delivered by USPS two days ago but I still hear nothing, no acceptance confirmation, no credit or so.
I also did a mail in trade in. have you got your credit yet to your spectrum mobile account? if so, how long it took?

Do i need to purchase a plan along with the ATT prepaid Moto G Pure(2021) phone at Walmart and activate the phone?
Or purchase just the device from Walmart and trade it in to Spectrum without activation?
