See previous threads here on T-Mobile. They have become really consumer unfriendly in the last couple of years.
2) Phone cannot be cracked in the screen and no moisture/water damage. Also, cannot have destroyed pixels and dead spots. The back of the phone can have some wear & tear and cracks.
3) Best deal is to buy a Samsung S10 from eBay for your trade-in. This promotion will probably last another two weeks based on what they are saying from the subreddit.
4) You can get $100 Costco cashcard for being a Costco member. You can call or in-store. I've done both. I would probably call as it was quicker and just as simple. You also don't need to bring the phone with you. Just an IMEI. Just make sure the phone you are submitting qualifies or else you're going to be in a heap of trouble submitting the IMEI of a phone that might come cracked, etc.,
5) You can ship your trade-in phone or bring it in to a T-Mobile corporate store. Just tell them you have a phone to trade in... They will do basic checks and automatically approve your phone for trade-in on the spot. Saves you the hassle of UPS losing your trade-in phone during shipment.
Most of these questions have been asked... Just look at the old T-Mobile thread from two weeks ago.

Did you send it only in the mailer, or in a box?
Sent it in a box ! Used same box that I received my new iPhone. I also recorded boxing and phone condition before shipping. Fingers crossed now.
What a mess! Don't understand why the store cannot accept the phone.
Wow you got screwed..
they earn commission from selling you additional stuff.
The fee waive is part of being a Costco member and you don't need to pay for an accessory to have it waived.
Get Costco to refund you and report that T-Mobile associate.

Aaaand u dont understand this deal....or are you smarter than the 95+ TU and all us Sders?
You should have went to a different store. Even the T-Mobile employees on the phone told me to trade it in the store over the shipping
if you trade in the cheapest phone you can and sell the expensive phone. you are NOT "getting back $500 either way"
Since you are soooooo smart, tell us your math here

Sorry that happened to you.
I would suggest trying to reach out to tforce on twitter or facebook and explain the situation.
Mention that you tried bringing it at a corporate store and they told you to ship it out
