So, called 611 2 times - both times they confirmed that I am eligible. I place new order for iPhone 15 Pro and will trade in iPhone SE 2. I am yet to received my new phone and trade in older phone.

I see following information under EIP Plan --

"Apple Trade ID230269
Promo Code: P551
Start Date: October 6, 2023
Credit: up to or $8.34/mo. for 24 months

Get up to $200 off Apple iPhone 14, 14 Plus, 14 Pro, 14 Pro Max, SE (3rd gen), 15, 15 Plus, 15 Pro, or 15 Pro Max, via one-time trade-in credit and 24 monthly bill credits when you purchase on a monthly payment plan and trade-in an eligible phone on most plans."

I had contacted T-Force via IM on 12/22 with the details and they said I was not eligible.

I read this thread and found a comment that calling the agent is more successful. It worked out for me yesterday. I'm on SC NA plan so this is certainly the way to go (calling in and leaving a call back) Call late to get overseas agents (Phillipine?) who tend to be more accommodating. Got a 15 Pro for a A32 ($5 tradein value) with 24 months of credit for $800. Had to pay Taxes on full price and $35 fee.

Not to thread crap, but if you do an AutoPay to a Bank or Debit Card then you can also get $5 per line (up to 8 lines). Open up a T-Mobile Money account and fund it (4% interest) with what you expect to pay so that even if T-Mo gets hacked, all you are exposed to is the money in the Money account. I'm upset I did not know about this offer (active since June 2023) $40 off of a SC plan is just jaw dropping.

Update on 1/6/24
Got my first month bill and indeed the Autopay $5/line discount was NOT there. I called and spoke with the CS rep and he apologized for the miscommunication. The grandfathered plans were not eligible for the $5 AutoPay discount. Sorry for the misguidance.

Hi, could you give more details about the autopsy $5 discount. Is there somewhere I can refer to. I am also on SC plan with 6 lines. I currently have autopsy with my credit card and don't get any discount

Just talked to a T-Mobile rep and this is the deal for me trading in an iPhone XR.

Thank you for waiting here is how the promotions works.

offer=$800 - $45 trade in value =$755

$755/24 months =31.45 for 24 months

so since your monthly installment on the device is $34.58 so we will less the monthly bill credit of $31.45 so your new monthly bill on the device is only $3.12 only.

So, I would be technically paying $3.12 with the monthly bill credit of $34.58?

Sounds too good to be true…..

Posting my experience

Got offers on 2 lines by calling in 611 and they placed the ordered with $800 trade in promo and assured me that I will get the discount.

However upon checking TForce they told me that I am not eligible for $800 trade in offer. However since the rep had added notes in my account they told they ll honor one line and cannot honor the other one. So I spoke to them tht I will return other one.

Next day, I was planning to start the return so reached out on t mobile chat. However when I checked last time if the promo had applied or not. The rep said yes. I asked them the details and asked them some sort of verification. So I got a text message that P519 which $830 offer trade in and that discount was already applied in my account for the 2nd line.

Is anyone able to redeem the $800 offer more than once on your account?

I was surprised as well. I was on AutoPay with my credit Card and did not realize this existed. I then saw a Notification in my BillPay section. Clicked on it and it said that As of June 2023 AutoPay discount was only valid for Debit or Bank Account. I was not too thrilled to have T-Mo link into my normal Bank since their recent data leak so I opened the T-Mobile Money

Here are the details the notification linked me to.
https://www.t-mobile.com/payments/autopay/faq

What is AutoPay?
AutoPay is a service that allows you to set up recurring monthly payments for your bill. We will automatically withdraw your payment each month, using your preferred payment method. If you use a debit card or bank account payment, we'll give you a $5 discount per line for up to 8 lines or $40.


Again, I asked the Care agent to confirm that I was eliguble and he said yes! I asked how much I would get and he said $40. I have 9 lines (many are "free") so I'll be shocked to see which lines qualify for the $5 off. Only time will tell. I shall find out with my Jan end bill if I get $40 off or $5 off. I'll take whatever I get.

I recall back in the day the AutoPay gave $5 per account. I honestly did not even bother to check whether it was actually deducting since the bill is a nightmare to deduce. I happened to see the Notification on my account by luck. I am on SC NA plan. The Care rep confirmed that I'll get the $40. I'll have to see it to believe it (First AutoPay credit will be at end of Jan)
Go to Bill and Pay, Manage AutoPay, and Click AutoPay FAQ.
https://www.t-mobile.com/payments/autopay/faq


BTW, back to the $800 off Apple device targeted offer... I called back the Care rep and said "since I've been a valueble customer for such a long time would you be able to waive the $35 fee. The Rep said "please hold a sec" came back and said that considering I'm a long time customer in good standing that he can apply a one time credit. Again, call late (philippines agent) and be polite.

Does magenta plan qualify for either of the promos? I apologize if this has already been answered.

The 611 rep told me that my account doesn't qualify. I read that some people were able to request and they got the promo added to their account. How do I request to add the promos to my account? The rep wasn't helpful in requesting and told me that my acct doesn't qualify. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

They cannot add a promotion to an account. What people are posting is wishful thinking. If you didn't get it on your account from the start it is time to move on.

You have autopsy? Really? These posts in this thread are getting more ridiculous by the minute.
