T-Mobile 30 day eSIM Trial on T-Life App you can port it out for free. I got 4 phones to use on trials from Straight Talk/Total Wireless deals unlocked in last 3 years.

After get Free Trial Number create a T-Mobile ID: Use the T-Mobile website to link your trial number to a email/profile.

Locate Account Info: Your account number in the "Account Summary" section of the online portal. Generate a Port PIN: Under Settings in Profile

For Chrome, open incognito page, chose I need a new number, chose $55 plan, enter your zip, hit get new number, hoover your mouse to the top right area near the X then message for coupon will pop up, works for me every time. These $25 off coupon works for only new customer, won't work for existing customer option. I can give you a code if you can't generate one.

Can I buy two phones at a time with numbers from different accounts/transfer pin? I see that it is asking only for one combination of account number and pin

Quote from Duxa :
Just walked out of apple store, they wouldnt take trade in until 2 months was up because phone is marked as "not paid off yet". I told them online it said i can trade in. They said that it would be declined after they checked the IMEI of the phone or send it back after getting it. I dunno if its just my Apple store, but thats my experience.
You ordered yesterday and you got the phones already? or you walked in Apple store empty hand and ask them about the trade in?

Quote from ProbablyReckless :


From the paragraph you quoted earlier...


Simply "reading" all the info apple has provided doesn't confirm the 16E 128GB would trade-in for the "up to $310" maximum stated. It's rather vague with a bunch of CYA language. Even going through the submission process up-to the point of confirming your name/address/etc doesn't yield a ton of solid evidence. Which is why I asked "what reason is there" in my op.
I traded in my iPhone 16e 128GB at the Apple Store a few minutes ago and received a $310 Apple Gift Card. They confirmed that if there is no damage, the trade-in value is $310 regardless of the storage capacity. I've been trading in devices at the Apple Store for years, and I've never received less than the maximum value because of storage capacity.

Quote from GameOfPhonesss :
I can confirm this. I've traded in a total of 3 iPhone 16es from Cricket and got $310 for each. Apple employee didn't even care that the phones were a day old lol. The only issue I have is they have to give you 1 gift card per phone. So I ended up with 3 gift cards worth $310 each. Would've been easier if they gave me the full $930 in one gift card.
It's actually easier that way. As far as I remember there is a limit of how much $ you can add to your Apple account and with 3x310 you have some flexibility

Thanks. Good to know you were not required to do ID verify. I was avoiding Helium because of that.

How does this work with requirement for 2 months service with multiple lines?
For example:
I got phone #1 and activated it today.
Then got 2nd line phone today, but it doesnt get here until a few days from now, lets say 5 days.
In 2 months time when the 2 months is up for the first phone and I dont pay for 3rd month... the 2nd phone still needs 5 more days of service to fulfill the obligation. So then I have to pay for 3rd month?
