Just in time for iPhone 15 upgrades/purchases. AT&T has deals with costco when you buy or upgrade to iphone 15. I was able to get the activation fees waived and the order confirmation stated the $100 gift card would be sent after 60 days. There's also a mention that $50 would be applied to your account after a certain amount of days.

"Minimum qualifying plan $75/mo" … so keep that in mind if you only have a line by yourself or maybe you don't care because your employer pays for it Confused

List of Costco stores with AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon Kiosks here:

The Verizon Kiosk offered me $100 Costco Cash Card for an upgrade today.

Your comment cannot be blank.

The fine print says minimum qualified plan is 75/mo. That's where they get you with these "free deals" - locking you in at high monthly rate for 3 yrs.

Quick math assuming you are ok with Visible/Mint at $30/mo - overpaying by $45/mo for 36=$1620, that's what you are paying for the "free iphone".
If you live in an area which has good coverage then better buy an unlocked phone and get a carrier of your choice than getting robbed by these guys for 36 months.
I have an unlocked phone & pay $20 per month for service. Can't be happier.
What is activation fee anymore ,!! Just another fee from older times

Does anyone know how to exchange for different phone after the order. I ordered a 14 pro along with other phones on a family plan last week when the no trade in required deals were on, but I want to get a pro max. Phone has not arrived yet.

I called the Costco Att phone number and they tell me I have to activate the phone before I can return it.

I thought I would update my Buying experience this past month.

30 Year Verizon Customer leaving for ATT.

Here is My Deal. First thing ATT has a better deal for Veterans. - Discount 25% off of Data Plans for all lines on account.

Costco third party seller for ATT.

Starters... these are current offers that other ATT sellers did not have.

You get 4 $100 Costco Cards for buying 4 phones and 4 new lines of service.

you get a credit of $ 6.95 per line per month for porting your phone numbers from another Carrier. that Equals $1000 credit over 36 Months.

Okay on to phones -
Line 1 - I choose a Iphone 15 pro max traded my Iphone 13 Pro Max 256GB New Device Payment $5.56 for 36 months.
Line 2 - Same as line 1

Line 3 & 4 - I choose Iphone 14's with 128GB Device Payment per Month $ 5.99 for 36 Months no trade ins.

Total Device Payment per month $23.01 ( total payment for 36 months is $831.60 for 4 New iPhones.)

Next is Device Plan

I choose the Premium EL unlimited plan better than what I had with Verizon but close - with veterans Discount it s $30.74 per line per Month x 4 = $122.96 , You must signup to get e-statments and auto pay with Bank debit card to get these Discounts.

I also signed up to bring my own tablet so that was a additional $15.00 per month

also purchased the New Protection plan to fully cover the 4 phones. $50 per month.

Monthly total Bill $210.97 plus taxes

OK bottom line out of pocket for 3 Years
Phones $831
Data usage $4966.56
Phone insurance $1800

Credits - $1000 Port over Credits
$ 400 Costco Cards.
Total monies out pocket for new Plan for 36 months is $6197.00 / 36 Months = $172.15 plus taxes.

My Verizon past 27 months Bill was $335 per Month = $9045.00 paid out. / 2 Iphone 13 pro Max and 2 Iphone 13 bought new. Yes I had trade in Credits for previous phones, but still paid out $335... I am done with Verizon ....

Hello ATT.

Hate to bring up this older thread, but does anybody know if this deal is still active?

I'm trying to add 2 more lines to my account, and I should be able to get a 128gb 15 Pro for free but I'm not seeing the discount when going through the checkout. Wanted to make sure it was still active or if I'm doing something wrong.

We have a broken phone so nothing to trade in for this offer. What is the cheapest suggestion for buying an older phone to trade in at the least cost
