If I add two more lines (one of which is free), it will cost me $25/month, minus a $10 autopay discount ($5 for each new line). This makes the true cost $15/month for an additional paid line.
I would need to keep that new paid line active for 2 years to qualify for a new iPhone, which adds up to $360 ($15/month x 24 months).
The value of my current iPhone 13 Pro is $400 (which I was planning on using as trade-in)(based on what I could sell it for in the marketplace).
So, the total cost of this deal would be $760 ($360 for the line + $400 for the iPhone).
In exchange, I get $1,000 in credit over 2 years, net gain of $240 after 2 years. Plus, I would have 2 extra lines—which I don't really need.
My question is: Is it worth going through this hassle for a $240 savings?

If you want Insider, leave and come back as a new customer. Go5G+ 3 line package is $150, and add a BOGO lines promo for $185. Add the insider discount and the price goes to $148. Then add your tablet line and the price should come out to what you are paying now. Only now you have Insider, and Go5G+ gives you more promotions to upgrade your phones for free. Plus whatever new customer gift cards they give out.
And sucks that we can't get the phone unlocked for 2 years. But I will use a different unlocked phone when I travel overseas.
Edit: I verified these items: 1) you must keep all your phone lines for 1 year to continue to qualify for the credits and BOGO. 2) The services add on is not required. 3) You cannot get your promo phone unlocked for 2 years. To get it unlocked, you must pay it off. If you pay it off, you lose all your future credits,. This services upcharge must be automatic as the rep did not know about the upcharge. I read a post earlier in this thread that mentioned this upcharge, and to reject it. So anyone who tries to get a BOGO line should mention that they do not want the data services with these new lines when they get new service.

Can the ported out line be added back in 30 days? or do we need to wait for 90 days for the line to be under a promotion?
You're right. He did tell me that upgrade is only on new numbers. But he entered ZTE max and an Alcatel phone on both the new lines. He did the new lines first and then tagged upgrade to replace one of those ZTE/Alcatel

"Costco Activate ID240150
Purchase an eligible device on a monthly payment plan in participating Costco Warehouse locations, have or move to a qualifying plan and save $150 when you activate a new line, save $100 when you upgrade, save $75 when you activate with BYOD or save $25 on eligible Home Internet and Mobile Internet activations via Costco Virtual Shop Card with online redemption." "Get $150 when you activate a new line on Go5G Plus or Go5G Next after rebate with Costco Virtual Shop Card with finance agreement."
So since I do not have a Go5G plan, it seems I am only eliglble for $75 if I activate with BYOD. Can anyone who submitted the $75 rebate verify that this is the correct promo code? Has anyone had their rep submit this or did you submit this yourself? (I only see one posting that confirms this ID).
My friend had added two lines to his account with the BOGO promo, we've already traded in two Samsung Galaxy phones at the T Mobile store for that and the phones arrived with him today. We haven't filled out the Costco GC promo yet though and I don't have my TMO account activated yet, so I am wondering if that needs to be done right away or if that will still be okay to be done in a couple of days/in 2025?
Thanks
