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.

Was it transfer to Android phone or to an iPhone? It seems that those who are facing issues with the trade in are the ones who transferred to an Android phone.
False. No issue. I transferred my line to an android phone today and did the trade-in. No issue, no hassle. The Apple rep was very helpful and nice. He even advised me to keep the cable.

Went to local apple store to trade 2 iPhone 16e and 2 iPhone 13, got full trade values for all except 1 iPhone 16e which failed diagnostica due to "unauthorized modifications" with no details. Sucks as these phones are supposed to be brand new and never gone for repair or modifications. Anyone knows if a different apple store might get it a full trade in value?

send it for warranty then trade it. Someone mentioned on reddit was battery error throwing unauthorized modification.

Send in to Warranty where? To Apple or to cricket? Will the phone be replaced for free or is there a charge? I have heard that they don't provide replacement for unauthorized modifications.

All local stores I visited in IL charged me tax based on full sale price. Anyone has luck in IL?

Thanks for the in-store datapoint.
You mentioned you already had taken advantage of online sals but the saleperson did not realize there was already a connnection on that address, so did you start of as a new line instead of adding another line to the existing one?
I started off w/ a new line while retaining my own number instead of receiving a new number, but the one thing I forgot to mention which may be considered critical is that you will need to use an email address that doesn't already have an account tied to Cricket.
