Are you checking your mobile billing (separate from internet/cable on Spectrum website)? Should be there by now.

they stop giving back tax since last year.
So if you buy in store then you pay taxes only on the total net amount after the trade in credit.

You have to pay full taxes if bought online..!!!

Just did 2 more trades in store today. Moto G > S26, S26 > iphone 17e. Both in NYC tax on the net amount after trade credit. I upgraded an existing line and added a new line.

I already did 2 in store trades on Sat (4 days ago) and I upgraded on one of the lines that I just upgraded 4 days ago. Still not blocked yet. maybe 5 trades in a week is the magic number?

nice... I did 5 in store over 2 weeks, on different days. haven't tried again as been too lazy.

There are a few states that still charge tax on the full amount in store but most do not. Tax law in most states says that discounts/promotions like the trade-in promotion are subtracted from the total when calculating tax. It is unclear why Spectrum changed things online as they are in violation of tax law in many states but your better chances are in store at the moment until some consumer protection bureau or lawsuit forces Spectrum to correct/compensate for things online.

Quote from FrozENFyRe :
I got an idea to test out. Anyone in the Sacramento area who has traded in for some s26s, and still has them, please send me a private message on slickdeals. I'd like to test an IMEI swap; I'll give you an IMEI from one of my s26s my account, and you give me yours, then we can see if the $700 sticks at check out when attempting to upgrade to the s26 ultra. This would prove if it's account bound for the IMEI or if the ULTRA is blocking ALL s26 trade-ins.
If this works, We can both go to spectrum and trade in each other's s26 phones for the ultra if that's what you would like to do.
Send me a message! If ur not in Sacramento but would still like to send me your IMEI for testing purposes, hit me up.
See private message. We can try and test it.

I just tried it with a fully paid off Spectrum s26 from my account, and using it for trade in for S26 ultra via add a new line in my relative's account. No go. The $700 was removed at final checkout just like in my own account I also tried using an unlocked S26 ultra I bought from Best Buy, and with that the $700 shows at checkout with either my account or my relative's account. Looks like it is removing the $700 bonus base solely on the Spectrum s26 series IMEI.

Ok i found the ultimate infinite money glitch for those with no sales tax:
1) trade in moto 5g for s26 (Pay $200)
2) trade in s26 for iphone 17e (Profit $5)
3) trade in iphone 17e for s26 (Profit $75)

Repeat.

Not as profitable as prior years trading in s26 for s26. And you're burning through your in store trade quota.

Just to let you know the points of reference for mail-in trade-in :

  1. They received my trade-in on March 16.
  2. Got the approval email on March 23rd:
  3. Saw the credit on the account on 25th March
  4. Requested credit with the phone call to the billing refund line: 1-833-224-6603, March 25th, 11 AM EST
  5. Saw the credit on my original credit card on March 26th, 10:00 AM EST.
