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.

Forgive my ignorance, so I can just walk in to any TMobile kiosk at Costco and do the upgrade/trade in there?
check if your store sells tmobile
you can also do it over the phone
You get $830 only with the higher cost phone plans like Magenta or Magenta Max. Those on the lower cost plans like One or 55 plan only receive $500.
Be warned: my shipment delivery was delayed by 2 days and upon receipt the top open tab of the iphone box was torn open. I'm contacting TMobile support to have it replaced. The shipment box was pryed opened a bit and everything just seems sketchy.
Has other customers experienced this with TMobile? It's not my first time participating in this trade in program but it certainly is the first time the phone box retail tab was opened.

I am seeing up to $830 off on the T-Mobile site. I am also seeing mentions of Costco here to get a $100 gift card. Should I call up T-Mobile or call up Costco? Sorry, I'm a bit confused as to what I should be doing to get the best discount / savings?

I had to put a deposit on my 4th upgrade
4x 16 pro's
I did do a pixel 9 pro dal not too long ago
I was going to skip that promo since I didn't see any deals for us simple choice users.
I have simple choice NA and I got $500 via bill credits off each upgrade
I did 4x 16 pro's
I'm on the magenta plan but still see only 500 max...if I have to switch to max the difference is like 40 . Don't want to pay 40 more just to upgrade this ....just stuck on Magento 😞
