You can go thru Costco or Sams club if youre a member. Saves you the $35 fee and you can earn up to a $100 gift card for upgrading.

Seems like Simple Choice does qualify and gets you up to $500 trade in value.
Unfortunately t mobile charges $30 extra on phones (apple sells ip16 for 800 and t mobile for 830.
T mobile also asked for $35 connection charge.
This extra $65 surcharge makes it less appealing ☹️

is the phone unlocked?
No, that is the problem. They only unlock once you pay off. Credits stop if you pay off early, unlike before.

The 630 off for 55, military, and first responder shows you need to add a line and trade in.

That's what it showed me on the app when I checked with my magenta military account.

This was easy enought to do on the phone, but it took me exactly 1 hr to connect to a rep. Rep was great though. He did also mention that he think it MIGHT be a valentines day only special but wasn't sure.
Rep from tmobile or tmo through costco?

I can't get it to work on my One Plan. I did a test upgrade online and all it shows is a one time $290 credit for an iphone 14 pro 125 gb. Is there a promo code to be applied at checkout?
Try logging out the app and logging back in. If that doesn't work try the web browser . The app can be wonky at times

So what's the cheapest, most reliable trade in device option for this, outside of FB marketplace, eBay, etc.

Yeah, that was a local store rep. I called the number (833) 428-1765 which was much better. I was on hold for about an hour, but was able to get it done with the customer service rep on simple choice trading in two iPhone 12s
Did you get paperwork that showed your trade in value when you did it through Costco? Did you get an email after you did it through Costco? On Tmobile's website, the credit doesn't show at checkout.

I have an iPhone 13 that's from a free phone promotion on my free line with magenta max. The phone is still receiving the bill credits. Can I use this phone as the trade in device? Is that going to mess up anything? I'm not using it on the free line and still received credits but the device is locked to TMo since it's not paid off technically.

I can see the promo showing up in the app for $830.

I have Magenta, but for some reason I was offered the $830 credit for trading in Galaxy s20 FE, I clicked all the way to payment page. Will T-Mobile honor it?

I'm getting $500 trade in credit for an iphone 13 on Magenta. This seems the best possible deal out there. Not sure if need to pull the trigger or not?
