I think it has to be evaluated on a person by person basis. For some the legacy plans not switching I get.
In my case i have 3 lines for 2 promo + friends and family + auto pay discount lines.
So I pay $96 a month (without financed device costs).
The rep I spoke to said I'd pay 106 a month if i switched to Go5G.
Over 2 year (i prefer the 2 year upgrade personally). I'd pay $240 more.
My iphone 11 pro trade in goes from $650 to 1000. Which is $350 more.
So still 350 trade in extra - 240 2 year increased cost = 110 staying in my pocket.
Now if I do that with 2 trade ins, I save a few hundred more.
If i can bundle with this costco promo - then that helps even more.
Also yeah I use netflix / apple tv through them. I use the perks from the plan.
I havent pulled the trigger. I'm trying to find reason why its better to stick to my magenta max.
If i stay on the plan, I still think Im putting more out of pocket buying the phones direct.
reading through the comments, maybe someone else can chime in.
one thing is what if costco tmobile screws up my account discounts? although if you call the phone number on their website - it goes to tmobiles costco dep so presumably they keep everything in-tact.
so for 6 lines (2 paid + 4 free) , it will cost around $190($150 for 2 paid lines +$10*4 for 4 free lines) on Go5Gplus.
The past when I've had issues - the messenger chat team (because its written) has always resolved it.
Still I'm checking this repeatedly from many different angles to figure out what will work / what can go wrong.
Appreciate feedback - will check out reddit.

The messenger team managed to automate it so I wouldnt have to call in every month.
They've been the best of the reps I've dealt with when issues came up.

I'm just glad to be on a legacy plan. Hopefully, T-Mobile doesn't find some legal loophole to bump those on legacy plans to some newer plan (that would cost more).

I was sharing an experience - their (T Force? messenger team) has resolved most of my previous issues - if not all. That doesnt mean I'm relying on what I was told and switching plans etc.
I'm actually reading through reddit right now.
Its a bunch of random threads? No mega thread on this? Just scrolling, clicking, reading anything related to iphone15, costco, magenta max in the title.
I'm not doing anything right now. One of my phones is a Pixel 6 Pro - google has its event 10/4 for the pixel 8. So I'm waiting likely until that to crunch numbers, keep eye out for new promos etc.

the reps had us fill out the rebate online at promotions.t-mobile.com for the $250. unfortunately, there seems to be no way to track the $150 rebate for signing up there at costco.
with the phones being on delay they said i have to wait until they come in to then go to the tmobile store and do the actual trade-ins.
