Current situation: I am on a T-mo SC-NA grandfathered plan with 12 lines + T-mo HI 5G line. T-mo does not have any promos for device upgrade unless I move to the Go5G plan (way more expensive) than the monthly price I pay for the lines. Current monthly cost ~$256. No EIP, all devices paid for.
Happened to walk by Costco AT&T booth here in the Bay Area and they seem to be wooing T-mo customers with a too good to be true offer... Here's the deal...
1. Tradein my all my devices iPhone 12, 12 pros, 12 mini, 13 pro max, 14, 14 pro maxs, 15, Pixel 8, Samsung A32s and all devices will be upgraded to 16 pros, 16 pro maxs, pixel pro and A32s to Samsung S24 FEs.
2. $100 Costco GC for each line I bring over from T-mo ($1200)
3. $200 Costco GC for AT&T fiber internet connection
Monthly AT&T cost (all in) is $313 for all lines and AT&T 300/300 fiber connection. Once devices are paid for (3 yrs), monthly cost will be $309. For $60/ month more, it seems like a deal worth jumping into. See screenshot attached. Thoughts?

Did 2 in store and 2 online..traded 4 x iphone 12 from Metro
In store they tried to sell me the more expensive phone but i always look over their shoulders and i corrected the order. Online was straight forward . Was charged tax upfront on full value each time. Sent trade in by mail without pics..All 4 trades were correctly validated and added to my account. got $400 in Costco GC, $200 in extra bill credits by doing costco deal..this should offset the tax and what i paid for the 4 brand new iphone 12 i traded. All in all I ended up with 4 x IP 16 for absolutely free
2 years ago I went the way you go. I got IP14 from Apple for 1200 including tax unlocked from Apple . Sold it for $500, battery was at 88% and for a week I had to deal with all the scammers , assholes, low ballers on the marketplace
I'd rather deal with ATT and get a free phone or 4 out of my struggle

Trade ins can also screw you over. One trade in or two that don't go as planned and you lost.
No activation fees ?
Also you can't upgrade for three years without losing bill credits.
3 year contract on the phone what about on the fiber?
I switched to ATT via Costco last year. ZERO billing issues, credits always received.
As I mentioned previously, call the 800 # for Costco ATT. Avoid the instore folks and you should be fine.

Here is the real a pic showing getting credits..not sure how I can link more without compromising my account..What other link are you talking about?
What pic are you even mentioning..you are confused, delusional and vindictive. Most likely you approached the trade in the same way you approach this argument. Very abrasive , know it all, not able to understand basic instructions , and too smart to follow easy steps. As I said, it's a you issue and not the norm.
