90% of morons on this thread will ruin the deal by asking dumb questions to Best Buy and possibly altering them to check trade in phone in details. Just keep your mouth shut when you go there to pick up the phone

* Can you still log into your Metro account? (i,e, you haven't traded in the Metro phone that receives the security text to log into your Metro account).
* How much longer will your Metro account stay active? If just a week or so, you won't have enough time to order and activate the new devices.
* How many phones/tablets have you ordered from Metro and shipped to your home address? Two or less is usually fine. The closer to 4, the higher the chance that your additional orders won't go through.
I haven't traded in the phone yet but will do it tomorrow. I guess I can transfer the number to another phone to keep it active for first month. This is my only order from metro till now

Log into your Metro account and use the ADD LINE to order more devices. Samsung A9+ tablet is free with $20 data SIM. Many phones are free or discounted with porting in. Each phone line after the 1st line is $35 instead of $75. Should get a text to your 1st phone at activation to claim one Free month of Amazon Prime. Need to activate each device that you ordered before you can order the next one.

That's a tough one. The in-store reps are generally pretty easy going, but some guy who has followed the mail-in threads said that it's outsourced and they can be pretty finicky. Best Buy's own database of those numbers is messed up in some instances (I think on some of the Pro models in particular), so I wouldn't think they should be so strict, but the comfort level for using them has seemed pretty low.

I believe that some people have been able to switch their orders to in-store pickup through the online portal, although I'm not sure how commonly available it would be.
That would be awesome if I could do that... Model number doesn't line up for me either but phone is unlocked.
I see an option to switch to store pickup but it's grayed out. technically the phone isn't released yet

this deal was dead on 16th or so. Too many people abused it and even more people contacted bestbuy asking dumb questions

I meant $799 deal. I'm not really sure if people are looking for a TIV where they still have to spend money out of their pocket.

Get one via the Metro deal. 129 including taxes. Should be good to go. Just show the IMEI nothing else at trade in

It depends. If someone wants to trade-in their i12 for a Pixel 9 to use (not resell), the $145 TIV + $200 promo TIV + $100 BB GC (can be sold easily for $84) brings their out-of-pocket cost down to $370, not too bad.

DMC310 is looking for an i12 PRO. Metro has only plain i12.

Yeah, if you ordered the Pro and it's not available yet, you won't have the option to switch to in-store pickup yet. But I'd start watching as the launch date approaches and hopefully the option may appear a little before or after that date. It seems like you might get the option based on some of the reports out there.
