Final trade-in value includes promotional credit of $100. So it's not trade-in value + $100.

1. You need a plan and the cheapest one is 15 + tax
2. You need to keep the plan active for at least 67 days
3. After 67 days, you need to call/chat to request unlock
4. Your total initially when placing the order is 399 + tax
5. After you send in your trade and they receive it, it will take around 2-3 weeks to receive the trade in credit. Depending the agent who processes your trade in but I believe most of the time, it will post to your account and you need to call in to request them crediting back to your CC.

Hope that helps

You will pay 399+ tax when placing the order. After they process your trade in, you will get whatever the amount (218 in your case) crediting to your account. The 36 months contract is only for payment plan. You can cancel your plan anytime after the trade is processed and your phone is unlock if you pay in full.

You have to do the purchases separately
Better to do that ($30 unlimited) or can you do only $14 per GB for two phones?

I have Spectrum Internet at home, so I do see 2nd line free for a year with the unlimited plan.

Will the trade in credit received as credit to the credit card used for purchase? Or added to the spectrum account as statement credit?

Anyone know how to take advantage of the "buy an unlimited plan and get one free" deal and with this Pixel 8 Pro pre-order deal? When I try and add a second unlimited plan to my order I'm told I have to place Pixel 8 Pro pro-order before I can place another order.

Does the credit card get charged when you place the order or when the phones ship next week?

Is there a way to get this if Spectrum doesn't serve our area?

I just upgraded my line for this and was able to get the phone for 440-168 trade in of a pixel 6a. I think this is a fantastic deal. $270 in effect for a top of the line phone.

Here is my experience (YMMV):

I have Internet 1 Gig plan with Spectrum for a few years and have been charged @109.99 per billing since my last promotion expired.

I am going to travel internationally after 2 weeks and was in the market for new phone plans with international roaming (currently using an unlocked Pixel 7 Pro with AT&T Pre-paid plan which costs ~$55 monthly for 2 lines)

I called the Spectrum Internet Service help desk to switch my account in my wife's name and apply the new 'Spectrum One' bundle discount (Phone + Internet). For a new customer, this would normally cost $69.99 + taxes with auto pay + one-time activation fees. This pricing includes 1 gig internet for 24 months + 1 free unlimited line for 12 months.

The agent was able to switch to the 'Spectrum One' plan and gave a free unlimited line for my wife who is going to keep her current device (Pixel 7 with port-in). The price was $64.99+taxes with autopay for the next 12 months.


Then I asked the agent to add a new line and availed the trade-in Pixel 8 pro offer for my own use (by turning in my Pixel 7 pro). He was able to waive the $10 activation fee as well.

Here is the final cost breakdown for the pixel 8 pro that I was charged today:
$399.99 + $32 (taxes) + $29.99 (unlimited plan) = $461.99

Received an email from Spectrum for trading-in my device before 12/4/2023 and the total credit back would be $345. I do plan to continue with Spectrum Mobile Unlimited plan for the next year or so since they offer free international roaming to countries I travel to.

Final costs for me:
Monthly mobile plans 2 lines: $55 - $29.99 = ~$25 per month savings
Monthly Internet: $109.99 – $64.99 = ~$45 per month savings
Net Cost for new Pixel 8 pro phone: $431.99 - $345 = $86.99 one-time cost

Quote from blueis300 :
I have the free Spectrum Mobile line and I've purchased 5 phones when they were on sale and unlocked all of them. You can simply pop in your sim with any carrier since the phone will be unlocked after 60 days (this can be challenged when you call them and asking for unlock before 67 days since all you need is your line to be active for this period, not the phone itself per their unlock policy " Your Spectrum Mobile account must be active for 67 days and in good standing, with no outstanding payments.").
Only thing that bugs me the most is every time restart any Spectrum Phones, there is the Spectrum logo that pops up. nod.
I don't know how Spectrum mobile makes money off of selling many phones at so low.
on my Samsung s23U and s23+, I flashed the OEM unlock firmware. No spectrum logo at startup.

Yeah, I might do that later. I've already looked into this on Reddit.

Quote from tommyjai :
I skipped the trade-in bonus as it seemed to be complicating my situation. I still needed access to my T-mobile plan during the 67 day waiting period to unlock the phone. Instead, I'll unlock on day 68, activate the new phone with T-Mobile (SIM swap should be doable?), cancel the $14/mo plan, and then sell my old phone (pixel 7) on ebay which should net me more than the ~$230 that Spectrum was offering for tradein. For those wondering, you can pre-order the 256GB version for $60 more, this deal is not just for 128GB version.

Device Payment $1059.99
Pre-Order Today- $600.00
By The Gig $14.00
One-Time Activation Charge $10.00
State And Local Sales Tax $40.82
Total Shipped $524.81

+ 2 addtl months of service ~$30
- Sell Phone ~$250
=$304.81 ballpark.

Any holes in my thinking?
You should go for it. this is the way you can maximize your profit buying this phone from Spectrum.
I got my Pixel 7 Pro from Spectrum Mobile less than a month ago. I've already pre-ordered the Pixel 8 Pro trading in the Pixel 7 Pro. I didn't want to go thru the hassle of selling the 7 Pro. I basically pay about 50 bucks plus the tax so.
