Do the EIP bill credits for ID240725 require keeping all other lines active for 90 days? Thank you - repped.
Does that plan allows us to add a line to get BOGO? Second line free? And we can trade in.2 phones for 2 iphone 16's?
How much is the credit we get for trading in the phones?
SOC code - SWACULPL
TIA for anyone who can explain.
1. If transfer phone numbers back to T-Mobile, ensure the last line was transferred out of T-Mobile at least 90 days prior to porting back into T-Mobile.
2. Request "port out PIN" from existing carrier and record account number for each phone.
3. Go to Costco or call Costco T-Mobile about wanting to transfer lines to T-mobile.
4. Ensure I'm qualified for the promotion before proceeding by talking to a Costco T-Mobile representative first.
5. In-person Costco representatives will want to inspect old phones first to ensure those phones are in good condition. Before going in, get used phones on ebay or swappa in good condition. Get a Samsung Galaxy S9 online for $100 - $150 and trade those in instead of my two year old base iPhone is worth $350 - $400.
6. Let a Costco representative inspect each phone condition. They would record the IMEI of each trade-in phone for each new iPhone that I want.
7. Let Costco order phones (my local Costco doesn't carry iPhones in stock). Those phones will ship to my house with return bubble envelope for trade-in phones.
8. Wait until new phones arrive.
9. When new phones arrive, put on screen protector and case.
10. Before activate phones lines, transfer iPhone data to the new one.
11. After new phones have your icloud data (or phone to phone quick transfer), call T-Mobile or go to Costco to transfer actual phone numbers, not data. Make sure to provide previous phone carrier account number and port out PIN number for every phone. It would take about 45 minutes to an hour to activate all 4 lines from home. They'll ask you to give them the EID of each phone, then go to Setttings -> Celluar -> Add eSIM to transfer the number to your new phone.
12. Mail in trade-in phones. Each tracking number envelope is associated with every trade-in IMEI number that Costco representative recorded. Double check with a T-Mobile representative on matching old phones IMEI with the return tracking number before your ship trade-in phones. T-Life app should also show each associated trade-in phone with their respective trade-in tracking number. I checked with my Costco T-Mobile rep - they said they can't physically take the trade-in.
13. Wait until 1 - 2 billing cycle to see the monthly credit.
14. For $150/$100/$75/$25 Costco rebate, go to promotions.t-mobile.com, click "Continue", then sign-in. Select the phone number that you transferred or added to T-Mobile, then type in your promotion code, which you'll need from your Costco T-Mobile representative. For this event, my code was 240150. For $150 rebate, you'll need to be on either the Go5G Plus or Go5G Next.$100 if you upgrade an existing phone. $75 if you transfer a line in. $25 if you activiate a new home internet line. Allow up to 8 weeks to get your rebate.

No where in ID240725 terms does it say you have to wait 90 days to cancel a different line. If you cancel lines shortly before ID240725, then you will have to reactivate them. But once you get ID240725, there is not requirement.
That said, wait a month or two until you get ID240725 on your bill before making other changes. Less confusion in case something goes wrong.
If this is true, then my advice is the same as what I gave to venkat1234 or bbull3t
