i remember last year, people who did pre-order and mailed in their trade-in's were having issues with getting trade-in credit to show on their account, even after 2-3 months. Think i'm gonna go with trade-in at store again for this year.

Eligibility list shows that phone being unlocked is not necessary.
last year on the S25 deal, I trade in my locked pixel 9 financed phone from t-mobile. Won't finish paying that Pixel for another 6 months....

Has anyone signed up as new internet customer to get the best deal? I was wondering if you get the extra credit for 2 new S26 when you port 2 lines or if you get the extra credit just for one S26, and would one of the 2 lines be free for a year?

I currently have Spectrum internet with one line free for the year, use my own router and pay $41 monthly for the 500mb plan. Last year I got the amazing deals for 1 S25 and 2 S25+ . Would it be possible to cancel the account and have a family member sign up to get the new customer deal after porting in 2 lines (one google voice and one Lyca)? If so, I'd like to trade in one Moto Stylus 5G 2024 and one S25 to get one s26 (for free with trade in, in store if/when the promo becomes available in store) and one iphone 17 (before 03/10) for roughly about $200 on top of the s26 trade.

For in-store trade-in, do they count on the previous year? I hope they reset the clock or don't count on the previous year. I think I was ban because I was trade-in in-store too many times already. For my one line, I ported out, then ported in when they offered me the 2nd year free.

I wonder what they were going to do with all the trade-in locked phones from last few years. I doubt they can unlock all those locked phones.

I just got a used Galaxy S21 Ultra for $200 or so. It's awesome. I'm not clear on what an upgrade is for though.

I'm in NY, and I got the tax refunded for the S24 and S25, but on the Flip 7 they did not refund the tax. I tried getting the tax refunded, and I even filed a complaint with the NY Division of Consumer Protection and got a letter from Spectrum telling me to kick rocks. So they definitely changed how they apply tax in NY. I still think they are wrong and the tax should be refunded, but I'm not gonna fight them over $70.
I did a few Flip 7 trade ins in store in NYC and got tax refunded on the trades. I heard if you did the mail in trade, they stopped refunding tax on the trade in device. Better to do everything in store.

I went in store to trade in 2 phones and complete the pre-order and pay in full. It didn't work. The in-store system was not allowing it to payoff in full upfront and receive the $700 off. Will wait until release date to try again, unless someone else has other tips.

Preorder is online only, what other tips you are looking for?

May I ask questions here?
I placed a pre-order at Best buy with trad-in. Does the old device for trade-in have to purchased from best buy?
I pre-ordered a s26 ultra, trade in my s25+(Spectrum unlocked), the invoice shows a trade-in s25+ with Best Buy SKU. Does that mean the old device has to be purchased from Best buy?

Don't know how to post screenshot.
Thank you

No, you need IMEI and condition match. SKU doesn't matter for Bestbuy.

They probably will ship it out on Monday.

No. If you order online then you have to send the trade-in through mail.
But if you order in-store then you get the trade-in credit immediately.
The trade in off details shows end 03/10/2026, which is when the pre-order ends. Is that the same last year for S25? will they extend this for in store purchase?
