Just run the debloat wizard and it'll give you recommendations on what to disable.
I called and they got me the deal but I think i no longer get free Amazon Prime as a long time Metro account holder. They messed with my account to make me eligible and in hindsight I'd rather get Amazon Prime for free than an unneeded tablet for $20.

I've ordered 2 phones from them 6 months ago (unlocked now). What are my chances of getting blacklisted if I order a new phone then 2 tablets vs renewing one of those phones and ordering 2 tablets?

"Purchase the 64GB Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ 5G Tablet and pay the applicable sales tax on the pre-credit price at time of purchase"
Those who live in CA pay that pre-credit tax.
Those who live in the fair and sane states do not.
Also, this T-Mo A9+ 5G version sells at the Samsung web site for $270+tax=close to $300, and without the 30 days of online service as it is with Metro, with a few hundred excellent reviews, so it's not that bad of a tablet!

For this free tablet, there is no tax for online purchase, even for those in CA.
So, if one were to get this tablet at a CA Metro store one would pay tax on the $279.99 price before the free discount, BUT if one were to buy it online there's no sales tax, right?
Perhaps these sales tax CA laws changed recently?
I remember people here at SD complaining about paying sales tax on the full price before the discount in CA at Metro stores on various other Metro discounted deals in 2023.

So, the CA Metro dealer stores charge the full price sales tax even though the item is to be free.
And the Metro Corporate stores did not when they were in business.
It looks like CA has some distinctions on the charging of sales tax.
It seems like the Metro dealers must by CA law collect the sales tax because they are considered resellers of the product who will later be reimbursed by Metro-by-T-Mobile for the cost they paid to Metro.
While the Metro Corporate stores weren't obligated by the CA sales tax law to collect the sales tax because it was considered their product.
Similarly, the online Metro sales on the free tablets are not subject to sales tax, it's their product.
The same will apply to most all stores in CA since the vast majority of stores are resellers of products, like Best Buy, etc.
Best Buy and other stores, online or physical stores, cannot offer a truly free product like, say a $1500.00 iPhone or android cell phone unless it collects the CA sales tax on that price, probably over $100.00.
That's really a weasel way for the state to fleece the people!
This distinction does not apply in most other states where if the product is discounted or free there's only sales tax on the actual customer purchase price, making the product truly free or truly discounted no matter who the seller is.
If anyone in any other state has a similar experience to CA, chime in.
