TBH, I am getting 118 on magenta plus with 8 lines is a discount mistake in my favor. I am double dipping in 20% insider discount. The increase going to plus should have been zero, but because that double dipping will get removed is the reason for the jump. But 30 dollars is 30 dollars and I am in that dilemma because the alternative is to buy phones myself and sell current phones on swappa which is a hassle.
You should look at adding buy one get one line to move to a 9 line plan and more discount in your favor. We are at 11 lines for 144. go5g plus

Interesting, can you please help me understand how would that reduce the cost. I am assuming if 8 lines is 148 on plus, 11 will be even more and not less.

5.
Third line free plus I pay for fourth. Then 4 more free. I guess I can cancel the 4th line and reduce my cost with a total of 5 free lines.

Not my ways. All thanks to John Leagre when he was dishing out free lines to grow Tmobile. There are others who are barely paying like 8-10 bucks for 12 lines because of the amount of free lines they were able to add.

Also when one moves from 8 to 9 or more lines, it works in the favor for how tmo billing treats the free lines.

If someone is starting out fresh account, start with tmobile insider discount of 20% and with third line free option. Then build on the plan whenever there is buy one get one line free offer. Its been amazing journey last few years with tmobile

Forgot to ask. Insider discount? Because thats where the game is.

Total Lines 10 $490.00
AutoPay Discount. -$40.00
Total free lines6. -$270.00

With original insider discount final bill 99.

With new insider discount (after 2022 i think), final bill 144.

With no insider discount your bill will be 180.

I think off and on T-mobile used to have that. I haven't seen it come back for sometime. But that is not to say it will not.

Yes. Only for new accounts. You have to ask the employees for one. They arent keen to give any more as tmobile has removed their commission for these but if u r bringing in few lines on a new account they may oblige

Ok so I went ahead and upgraded myself to GO5G plus by talking to t-mobile support. Called Costco to find out that 100 dollars is only if I upgrade to plus next through Costco. If I am already on Plus I don't gat anything additional by going through Costco. Is that right?

Thanks.

I just went to Costco to upgrade iphone 16. I am on Go5G plus. I get $830 trade in credit for my iPhone 11 Pro. They also give me $100 Costco shop card (to be delivered in about 2 months). They do require me to buy accessories to waive the activation fee. I bought a wall charger for $20. Thus, no activation fee.

Seeking clarification...
- Is the Costco $100 cash card available for existing Go5GPlus subscribers (who are not adding any lines)?
- Is this $100 cash card offer for each new phone purchased via the trade-in offer i.e. if we get 3 new phones it'd be $300?
Thanks.
