Yep it was BYOD. Even after I went to the store and got the deal people kept telling me on t-mobile discord and on slickdeals that I was stupid and that the promo credits would magically "drop off". It's been a year and I'm still getting the credits. Unless something has changed, their whole BYOD thing is a myth and it works for device credits.
Based on what I'm seeing on the discord, no one is qualifying for this free line.
I qualified for this and they are asking for an EID for the phone. I don't have a phone with me right now for this. Is this a potential problem?
that never ends well. they don't have to honor what an employee says. there are a lot of dumb employees who have no clue what they are talking about and spit out incorrect information.
Yes, T mobile reps are notorious for lying to customers. It took me 6 months to get a trade in promo corrected.
I don't need a new line right now. But free is tempting. I reached to T mobile team in X to be sure.
I remember from the last byod free line that someone mentioned you cannot ever do a line promo with this line, otherwise it becomes a paid line. Not sure how true it is. I guess the hassle would be trying to remember which line is byod and which isn't.
Thanks for the info. You can always add byod as line's nickname. I used it for kickback.

The last BYOD promo, I was denied twice(Tforce and 611) and just went ahead and added a line online with an eSIM and got the 2022 BYOD promo text within 10 minutes. I wonder if it would allow it again? Many others did the same and got the promo.

I'll check out too but I'd advise be super careful with these type of deals. I have Select Choice Family Plan and last year there was a similar deal where they incorrectly told me I qualified for it and then I added a new line for "free" but then my plan got switched incorrectly out of my legacy plan into a new one. Apparently I had a 5 line limit and the 6th line pushed me over the limit which created a nightmare and my bill increased overnight by an extra $80+. After multiple calls and 3-4 hours with Escalations team, they finally were able to put in a request to their Development to programmatically put me back on Select Choice. Be advised and super careful...

Playing with fire. I wouldn't go there. Tmo manages to screw this up when they tell you that you DO qualify.
Way too much time with CSR to try to fix if it doesnt work and you have no leg to stand on really

so how did you add 2022 promo to the line? did you ask them to enroll that new line under BYOD promo?
Reached to tforce on x. Mentioned both the internal document # and the promotion name as well as my segments need to be checked to see if I'm eligible. We'll see what they say. I currently have 8 lines for $100 a month.
Do you have phones attached to each of your 8 lines? I qualified for this but don't have an extra phone at the moment. Just wondering if I could have this just sitting on my account without a phone

I tell you easy way. if you don't want to pay for $35 SIM cost.
Go to app[le store. ask for T-Mobile sim. They give it to you for free.
Call T-Force and have them activate this new line on new SIM.
Tell them you are waiting on new phone and will it get here will pop this SIM in.
