When I received the Assurant credit email, I saw the credit amount next day in my account under Billing-->Mobile-->NEXT BILL.I then called the billing department agent to transfer to my credit card on file.

Credit 2226 on my spectrum account 3/2
- went to Spectrum office yesterday without appointment, left with 2 new Galaxy S25 128GB base models for $234 total after about 20 minutes inside the store, trading in 2 locked tracfone 2023 Moto G Play phones from the QVC 2-pack deal.
- i have spectrum internet but have never used the free spectrum mobile line, so that first line was free and the employee was nice and waived the $20 activation fee on that. it's a free unlimited plan for 12 months.
- 2nd new s25 is on a "by the gig" $20 per month plan.
- i had brought 4 cheap phones (the 2 moto g play 2023 versions and 2 more moto g play 2024 versions) and was considering getting 4 new s25's and i discussed this with the employee, and the employee would have been happy to do it, but he wanted to bundle the lines all together on some other plan and i wasn't sure if that would mess up my plan to cancel the paid lines as soon as possible, so I just got the 2 for now.
- i might go back today or tomorrow to get 2 more s25's on 2 new separate $20/month "by the gig" lines, using the 2024 moto's as trade-in.
- but i am also wondering if i should try to go back in-person and upgrade the 2 s25's i got, to 2 new s25+, since that's really the best deal because you get money back from that trade-in, plus you get 2 new upgraded 256GB phones.
- they did require SSN and they scanned/photographed my driver license card. it must be for a credit check because the guy said "you have up to $15,000 in credit available" or something like that.
- i of course paid in full upfront and did not finance anything. he flipped around his screen at the end to show me the summary, and it was a touch screen with drop-downs where you could look at the details under each phone. there were some various fees/taxes for state and local stuff.
- $10 trade in value for each moto phone, plus the extra $700 each, so each new S25 cost $89.99 plus tax, and plus the $20 activation and $20 first month payment for the 2nd line. So $90 + $90 + $40 = $220 with the total sales tax being about $14 (it said the other taxes/fees were bundled into the monthly plan's cost). The 2 phones at $800 normally, plus about $64 taxeach at 8%, would have cost about $1,728 total.
- So I saved about $1,494 on the 2 phones or about 86%. Amazing deal, and thank you everyone for posting this and all the tips.
Edit to add: I am debating whether I should cancel the 2nd line ASAP and then try to activate the 2nd S25 on the free line in 2 months, after I've activated the 1st S25 on that line. I've read on here that you should be able to put the 2nd phone on the 1st free line, keep it active for 60 days there, and then unlock it, but I'm not sure if it's worth the hassle. I might just pay the extra $20 on the 2nd month of the 2nd line to make sure it activates. Although I really only need one of the phones, so if I can't get the 2nd or more phones to activate, I guess I could just trade them in still.I've heard people say that you should do 3 months just to be safe, but I believe in New York State here they will prorate the credit back to you for time remaining in the month when you cancel, so I think I would still only be out an extra $21 or $22 or so for the 2nd month and beginning of 3rd month.

Credit 2226 on my spectrum account 3/2
The only thing that's concerning now is that on statement, it says refund and added that charge. So basically, I got refunded some amount and that was added as charge on statement.
I also got the credit on my account today and for some reason, after the rep moved it to my card, I'm seeing it's entry on both, refund (which was added as charge) and credit.
I've 3 refunds
$1296
$692
$1177
And one Credit
$1177
This is now concerning. Previously was told that the refund will be settled as statement generates. Now seeing that credit is concerning as I received it only once.
