For those who are new to Fi, steps to become an existing user and
1. Open an account with flexible plan. Use unmentionable code from existing user for $60 credit.
2. Just to be safe, wait for the first bill to be generated before ordering the phone. This will take couple of days. At the very least wait for a day but I suggest waiting for the first bill generation.
3. Once the phone is shipped you need to activate the phone within 30 days. At this point another counter for new user r**f credit is also running down from 30 days. I strongly suggest you wait for that counter to hit zero before you activate the phone. All the counters will be shown on FI app-billing-Track FI saving and instant rebate.
4. Once the phone is activated on FI by downloading the FI app, you should wait for a day for the counter to go down by 1. At this point you can disable/remove the eSIM and use your current provider.5. At no point during 120 days move the FI SIM to another phone (i.e. do not install FI app on any other phone and log into this FI account). Once the counter reaches 0 you can cancel the line or pause it for next deal.
The total cost will be $650 + $25 (plans cost per month including fees) * 5 - $60 = $715

1) Do I need to activate the flexible plan line on a different device to a) qualify as a existing user, b) to get the $60 credit going?
2) How many devices can I buy at $650? Can I do two devices and two lines? The two line pricing on the flexible plan saves upto $15 each month
3) Why disable the eSIM after activating the new phone if the plan needs to be active for 120 days? I'm assuming you can add the current provider as a second eSIM?

2. You should be able to buy multiple ordering it while logged into the emails for different lines.
3. You don't have to disable eSIM if you want to use the service. It was more for not using any data accodentally as it's pay per use and $10 per GB. You can have multiple services active on that phone.
