Credit goes to TealCable6389 for the initial discovery, but the deal is much broader than in their post and with better trade-ins than the Pixel 7. Still, give them a thumbs up if you like this deal.

T-Mobile has great deals for Pixels 8s and Moto razrs [t-mobile.com] with instant discounts and a $500 trade-in credit (over 24 months). Upgrades qualify, no new line required. Go5G, Magenta, or ONE plans qualify.

Pixel 8: $100 + tax
Pixel 8 Pro: $300 + tax
Moto razr 2023: $52 + tax
Moto razr+ 2023: $250 + tax

This deal is available through all T-Mobile sales channels: internet, phone, retail, kiosks, etc. Upgrading through Sams Club and Costco will get your $35 activation fee waived and a $75 bonus gift card.

Instant discount sale may end at any time. Ask for the $500 trade-in promotion by referring to Smartphone Trade ID240206​, Promo Code: P706​​ [t-mobile.com].

Cheapest trade-able phone for the full $500 credit would be a Samsung S9 for $90 [ebay.com]. Trade-ins must be in good condition (turns on; no water damage; no screen cracks; and in my experience screen burn and scratches are acceptable).

This deal is for existing T-mobile customers with qualifying plans to upgrade. There are better deals for new T-Mobile customers, like 4x iPhone 15 + Essentials plan for $100.

Costco $100 GC and waived $35 activation fee for upgrading through them:
I just upgraded this morning at Costco as well, and based on the Promo Code that the rep gave me, I'm seeing a $100 Costco GC as well.

Your comment cannot be blank.

I remember when these trade in deals with T-Mobile used to get you the pixels for free on simple choice. No longer the uncarrier, oh well.
No love for SC plans, again
Dang, no love for SC members. I can't give up my plan from 10+ yrs ago. I have like 6 free lines on it so nothing else comes close.

Last good SC deal was moto edge 2022. I got 3.

My only deals outlet now is Samsung.com trade in deals. Here's hoping for a great mid-cycle deal like they did for the S23U. I got mine + Tab S9 + watch & earbuds for less than $400!

Does anyone know a promo code for a T-Mobile upgrade on the Magenta plan for the Costco promo ?
The promotion code is in the wiki for this deal. (The screenshot of the promo terms only mentions Go5G, but my Magenta plan worked just fine, and other plans should work too.)

I went to a local costco tmobile and the dude (who was totally useless, tried to upsell on other phones and offer x amount on my phone) said he can't see the deal on Costco.

I gave up since I mainly asked if they're doing that promo and he said no. Anyone else have a try?

In the past, I've gotten reps who sometimes weren't aware of a particular promo, but if I told them the promo code, they could look it up and proceed with the deal. If they don't know how to do that, then sounds like you need to go elsewhere or a different time and hope to get a more knowledgeable rep.

He scrolled through a promo website, and looked only at the one plan. I had the number and everything and provided it. At any rate I was kinda fed up with him and just walked off. Its like dude, I'm literally telling you the promo code, I just need a yes or no that its available... sigh

Quote from ouloat :
The safest method is to trade-in at a corporate T-mobile store, not a third party retailer TPR. Take photos at the store of your trade-in and the label printed by the store for your records.

You avoid the shipper losing or damaging the package. Although technically this is one of the services retail stores provide, you might have difficulty finding a corporate agent willing to do this, since they aren't making a sale and there is a slight ding to their metrics. I just tipped them $20 at the end for their help, more than covers the ding to their metrics and worth the risk mitigation for me.
Tipping culture is getting way out of hand.

AFAIK, the limit on Costco upgrade GCs isn't published. I've gotten 8 Costco $75 GC from upgrades last year during the 2 free Moto Edge promos. That said, there is a 4 phone limit to the $500 promotion, so if you are going after this promotion and the Costco GC, you can only upgrade 4 times.

Thanks! yes, the rep did mention there was a 4 phone limit to the 500 off. The main problem for me is I want these unlocked.

Is it 4 times max for lifetime or just this promo?
