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 ☹️

Did you need to give them Imei info over the phone?

I did for one phone because it wasn't on my T-Mobile account already. It was a 6s plus. For the phones that were already on my T-Mobile account I didn't have to give the number as it's already on file.

I bought 3 phones in June and never activated one of them, and all three rebates came in. I submitted Costco promotion right after I purchased the phones at the Costco counter from my phone.

Maybe he meant they have to arrive/ship, but he did say I had to wait until I had my phones.

Anyone familiar with decent cases for these? That new camera button seems to be a factor on cases. Either it's cutout, which seems the most common, or there are a few that have it covered.

Really just looking for a good case for the 16 that will be for a kid. So protective, but not overly bulky so it still fits in his pocket.

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
Yes. It's been there.

"You can call 833-428-1765 to buy, activate, or upgrade a T-Mobile phone at Costco. "

Is that the correct number? Sorry, I never trade-in my phones through COSTCO before.

Does these deals $830 or $500 work with Apple.com? Anyone able to do this, to get an unlocked phone, for all plans including Advantage unlimited/swac and unlimited on us?

MaxUp will work but you will need to leave it on for the whole 24 month period while the promo is attached.

How much better is an iPhone 16 vs a 14? Worth the upgrade for only $500 trade in?
How about iPhone 12 vs 16 or 15 because I see $500 off for a 15 as well...Military 1.0 plan
My wife has a 12 worth $500
One daughter has a 14
Other daughter has an 11 worth $250 trade
Would go through Costco

Any opinions as to whether the 16 Pro is worth the upgrade vs. the regular 16? Trading in a 14.
