Deal Details
I don't post many deals, but after doing this today. I feel this was the best option for me. Upgraded my S22 Ultra to a 25 Ultra for $200 after $1000 t-mobile 24 months plan and costco $100 upgrade cash card. I upgrade every 3 years usually so doesn't matter to me the monthly credits. No $35 activation charge as well when you purchase at costco. I'm pretty sure you guys will thumbs down me a lot, but I hope this helps some people. Upgrading a 3 years old phone for $200 plus taxes, in my opinion, is a great deal..

Posted this yesterday. Mine got lots of downvotes. Should've put "Costco" in the title to catch more attention lol.

Anyway, personally it's better to do this at Samsung.com via T-Mobile financing. Free storage upgrade and $100 Samsung credits > $100 Costco shop card for upgrade.
$1000 bill credits + $100 Costco shop card without a new line is the deal, not $100 Costco shop card.

I'm not sure what you're trying to say.

And yep, that's right. $1,000 in bill credits when trading in an eligible phone on plus/next, plus a $100 Costco shop card if you complete it through T-Mobile at Costco.

I've been on the one plan and there's nothing that would make me upgrade to the new plans. I have 9 lines for about $150. The only downside is new phone offers are terrible. I normally just buy directly from Samsung when they have trade in offers.
9 lines for 150 damn . I am paying 25 each for 8 lines....

This is a solid deal but t-mobile recently made it so that you can't pay off the phone early (to unlock it). I need this as I travel a lot and use local esims and would end up losing the bill credits. I traded in my Galaxy S2 with Att to get S22 and wanted to switch to tmobile with an insider code but the unlocking policy and no major changes to the phone I ended up switching to mint for $135+ taxes for 1 year of unlimited mobile service.

With att I was able to receive the bill credits even after paying off the phone and unlocking it after 1 month. Just need to receive the first credit.

Usually, they will do temp unlock which lasts for 30 days though I heard that iPhones can not be temporary unlocked.

240150 is promo code for cash card
This post reminded me that I submitted 3 rebates in Septempber for Iphone 16. All 3 were denied!

Edit: had to call in to have the denial reversed. Thanks for the reminder!

I have the "one plan" which is not offered anymore. I started with 6 lines and got 3 promotional free lines over time.

I had a similar issue a few years ago, I called them and they fixed it right away. I submitted 4 in December hopefully don't have that issue. Form they gave me today states if not received to call 611 and ask to be transferred to rebate department

Yes, i called in and they are reversing the denial. Still sucks I had to call in. If it wasn't for this post, I would have forgotten.
They said it could take up to 15 days to get it. How long did it take after your phone call?
