Yep, one. I haven't read all 70-plus pages of this thread (not sorry). I've read many though and can only recall one comment that said the kiosk rep waived the $35 activation (there might be others). My brother-in-law had a different experience in-store, but he was able to get T-Force to refund it later. So I was trying to see if the waiving was policy or up to the representative. That is, did my BIL just get an uninformed rep? Nonetheless, I'll find out for sure on Monday.
There is a checkbox option for reps to unselect if you are one of those customers. By default the option is set from what I saw on the reps tablet. I've done all my upgrades at Costco and never had to ask them to waive the fee

My upgrades are typically handled over the phone or in the T-Mobile store. It sounds like BIL's situation was a one-off. Thank you so much!

Anyone unlocked this phone permanently?
Any advise for unlock ? Payoff the whole phone and then unlock or is there any other way out

Since when have you unlocked a Tmo phone before it is paid off? Is that possible?

I think the answer is no

Must pay off to unlock

I have unlocked 10+ t-mobile phones on EIP before paid off.
Some of them (iphones) were even not used on t-mobile at all and sealed in box.
The official policy requires paying off eip and 40 days usage but it's flexible depending how long you have been with t-mobile and how nice the rep is.

Yeah for iphone it's much simpler. I did 6 iphones before and never had an issue. these android ones are weird, they have an app and they tell you whether it's eligible for unlocking or not. I contacted them and they said to use the app. So maybe they got stricter

For android, t-mobile can unlock remotely and you don't have to use the built-in unlock setting or unlock app. Tested on samsung A32 and oneplus N200. After I chatted with t-mobile rep, I just looked at settings, and it showed unlocked and I didn't have to launch the unlock app at all.

I am still using Moto X4 and fairly content with it. A decent camera and 4G still works very well for me on T-Mob. Is it worth upgrading? I already got the phones for all my accounts and thinking about selling them on Craigslist.

All 4 of my trade in phones were picked up but only one has been accepted so far (middle of last week). The 3 remaining phones have no update. Has anyone else had their trade ins processed several days apart?

Wow, I remember that phone. Got one direct from Moto. Had to get a warranty replacement twice for the phone just randomly shutting off and not wanting to turn back on. Ended up just selling the third one on swappa.
I would say it's definitely worth upgrading, especially for free, Well minus taxes and activation fee.
Still have a MOTO Ace 5g. That's been a good phone though I'm not using it anymore.
