If you look at my previous comment with screenshot, my test checkout page had the full $1130 credit ($430 + $700) for S26 to Ultra trade in. Did you confirm the reduced value at a store?
Not sure what exactly is going on, but when I tested S26 Base to Ultra trade in online, as an upgrade, I was seeing the full $1130 credit, until the very last order review page with place order button. FYI - I do not have S26, and so I selected S26 but used IMEI from my old S25+.
I plan visit a store soon to trade in old S25 and get S26 as an upgrade to my current line (I qualify for upgrade). Once I have S26, I will test trading vs Ultra.
Btw, has any new Spectrum customer here received the new customer credit of $400 in store, with 2 lines? Was it really spread over 36 months via device payment plan or were you able to get the full $400 instantly when you select "Pay in Full"? I'm asking this as the terms always state promo credits spread over payment plan duration, but stores have been able to provide the credits instantly even when the trade in terms mention otherwise. Also, as new customer, do we need to sign up for internet and the 2 phone lines at the same time, or can we order internet first, and then go to any store to get the 2 phone lines and the $400 credit? New internet customers can often get $40 500mbps plan online or over the phone, while stores charge $50 per month, including one free phone line. That's a saving of $120 a year.
So the whole S26 to S26 plus/ultra thing is not currently working like in previous years.

I wonder if you open a new line and trade S26 for S26, will they give you $1130 trade in value?
Didn't get the phone yet and they just ordered it online telling me to wait for 2 days delivery to my house. She said the credit would be applied 1 week max after mailing the phone in. (1.5 days passed already but still no mail in instructions)
They said I could activate the phone myself or in the store when the device arrives.
If the credit doesn't get sent in a week, I'll try calling spectrum to extend return window.

Then tell them to apply PARTIAL trade in credit and the rest spread on the account, that way you can STILL Finance like $36/36 months or $72/36 months.

The main benefit to doing it online is for credit card rewards. If you do it instore you are just charged the discounted amount. If you it online you can pay with a rewards card for the full amount (so you earn rewards on the full purchase amount) and then switch your card on the account to a debit/non-reward card and get the refund for the trade-in credit amount without losing the rewards.
I left the store immediately afterwards. That store always gave me weird issues when I go in. Seems like their reps aren't fully trained on all the available promotions.
