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 ☹️

Awesome we will head to Costco tomorrow.


Any idea when they will have a Galaxy deal? We have 3 iPhones and one Galaxy in our family.
Depending on your plan, there is a $1,000 or $500 off Samsung promo as well.

Came back home and Trying to submit the form on tmobile website to get the costco shop card. But my phone number does not show up in https://promotions.t-mobile.com/costco even after logging in.

Anyone has any idea on why this is happening? It's been only couple of hours since I placed the order at store, Should I try to submit the form after receiving the phone?
Gonna sound silly but, are you looking at the drop down list? Are u seeing any/all of your other lines? Have you tried a different browser?

Why is this deal being pushed as "NEW"?

Hasn't this deal been active on Apple.com for a while? I've been seeing the same deal 800$ off on Go5GPlus and 1000$ on Go5GNext since the iPhone 16 launch
This is mainly for Magenta Max plans, as those are included this time around.

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.

Is the Costco upgrade done only by calling in? How do you trade in, and can the trade-in device be a locked phone?

Is there any way to make the purchase online?

Can this Valentine's promo be done directly with Apple to get an unlocked phone?

The $500 promo is available for SWAC. If anyone upgraded their phone with the SWAC plan, could you confirm?

You can do this via Costco line or by visiting the Tmo Kiosk inside a participating Costco.
Cannot be dont online from Costo but by Tmobile. However, this will cost an extra $35 fee and no gift card bonus.

Apple isn't offering this promo. I'm unsure about SWAC. Is that a Sprint converted line?

It will not be through Costco. Costco kiosk told me the same for a simple choice, but try through the T-Life App on your phone. I was able to do the trade-in upgrade that way (simple choice plan). Forgoing the Costco GC and paying the activation fee, but that was just bonus.

I was satisfied getting $500 for a 13 that needed replacement (160 immediately and remaining as bill credits).

Why are some people saying it was working for Simple Choice at Costco?
