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..

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.
You should price out the Go 5G Plus. The $1,000 per phone credit might make upgrading cost-effective, especially if you get brand-new phones every year and sell last year's phone; it will give you brand-new phones, plus pay for the upgrade, and make some money. The upgrade might cost you $300 a year, but you can get $9,000 a year in phone credit.

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!
It seems like the strategy.

First, some people forget/don't do it at all. -Tmobile saves a ton of money
Second, deny a ton of people for no reason. If the people don't fight it - Tmobile saves a lot of money.
Third, even after they say they'll do it, you might have to call again...

They just keep whacking off those percentages and get away with it.

Go Plus is the cheapest plan offered for a single line and is $75/month. Not a good deal to get locked in for 24 months since there are so many cheaper and better alternatives out there. $75 x 24 months = $1800 plus taxes? Costco still offers the $10 30gb hotspot plan (MI30TI) and they were offering a BOGO 50% off last month when I went.

They haven't updated the website, that's why I stated in-store if you active a new line yes it's higher cashback card. I did deal this morning in store. They were literally unboxing all the s25s as I showed up. for upgrades it's only $100 unfortunately
Get up to $1000 off:
Samsung Galaxy: S10, S10e, S10+, S10 5G, S20, S20+, S20 Ultra, S20 FE, Note9, Note10, Note10+, Note10 Lite, Note20, Note 20 Ultra, S21, S21+, S21 Ultra, S21FE, S22, S22+, S22 Ultra, S23, S23+, S23 Ultra, S23 FE, S24, S24+, S24 Ultra, Z Fold, Z Flip, Z Flip 5G, Z Fold2, Z Fold3, Z Flip3, Z Flip4, Z Fold4, Z Flip5, Z Fold5​, Z Flip6, Z Fold6

you could have traded in any of these phones for $1000 credit.

Need clarification... If you order from Samsung.com, do the tmobile Samsung phones come unlocked like buying directly from Apple, or are they locked to Tmo for 24mo?

If you select T-Mobile on the Samsung website then yes they come locked. Otherwise you can get an unlocked phone with a Samsung deal.

$165 for 8, simple choice.
True. But high speed 5G/4G LTE data is capped at a certain GB per month then it is at 256kb. They are pushing to phase out these old plans and you will never get any decent upgrade offers on phones.
