Deal Details
YMMV, for certain targeted T-mobile customers. Free upgrade to iPhone 17 with EIP and any condition any trade-in (must have visible IMEI). Plan does not matter, only targeted accounts. Read the terms below carefully.

Just like the targeted Pixel 10 promotion, you can check if you have this offer by logging in online or T-life and making a test upgrade with a worthless trade-in (example IMEI 352363061652430). If the website or T-life offers you $830 promotional value for this worthless trade-in even if you declare it as broken, then you know your account has the promotion. Once you confirm your account has the promotion, take screenshots for your records and then you can purchase through any retail channel (i.e. Costco or Sam's for additional gc back).

Per the terms, you will get $830 RDC on iPhone 17 family for any trade-in in any condition as long as you can get the IMEI number [reddit.com]. So broken, non-functional phones work as long as the IMEI number is physically somewhere on the phone. If the online trade-in cannot find your IMEI, you will have to order through an agent.

Limit for R503 is 1 per account and R504 is 4 per account. T-mobile systems allows you to stack multiple EIPs and RDCs on your lines [reddit.com], as long as the promotions are different. If you pay off the EIP early, you will lose the corresponding RDC.

I got $800 towards any samsung/iphone/pixel for any condition trade in. Rep told me they can take in old phones up to iphone 3/galaxy s6/pixel 6. The trade in must be flagship phone when released (higher value phone). So I got two $20 cracked s8s with clean imei and got two s25+. Call them and check if you have a targeted promotion. Male sure you get im writing that you will get the trqde in value.

Never doing EIP again. Phone is locked when I travel internationally and can't use foreign SIM cards
You can request a temporary unlock for 30 days. I do this every time I travel overseas. Never had an issue loading a Sim or an eSim.

I thought the temporary 30-day unlock only applied to android/Pixel and no longer to iPhones? As in they used to do it for locked iPhones but not any longer.

I haven't had an iPhone in a few years so I can't comment on it now, but was able to do it back then. Currently have the S23 Ultra and when it was on EIP, you can send a temporary unlock through the phone's settings.

I have select choice and didn't get the offer for the iphone nor the pixel. I also have this message when I go to look at manage account: "One or more of your lines needs assistance to ensure you have a compatible rate plan." so wonder if that is preventing me from getting the offer.
