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.

got my 16e in and was going to add two more lines and its not calculating the discounts for additional lines, the second line wants $150 w/port, and third wants $140. was really excited to finally upgrade from my 13 but i guess ill be rocking it for a bit longer, since it looks like porting would add another roughly $10 per line, and dont know how long apple will be paying out 300 for trade in when the 17e is already out now.

Was hoping the multiline discount would apply. Couldn't test that myself until I get my phone and activate it.

I tried a cricket store today and it wasn't so great.

Price for me would have been $146 (and possibly tax added). Not sure if I could have even gotten it, but figured I may try a different store another time.

Hit with activation fees and other fun stuff.

The one you had issue with how long you had it? fresh or a few days? I took 3 in to trade, 2 got accepted are the ones delivered a day before and the one got that issue is the one I had for 2 weeks. I been observing, I see those without issue trading in are the ones running to the store immediately.
2 days only

To all who are getting/got/would be getting $0 trade in value is due to the battery issues with these 16e phones. For some reason no one knows why Apple diagnostics is triggering battery issue(that it is replaced). What I found is out of the box if you see the battery percentage bar close to 50% then chances are it would trade for $0 at apple.

Can you please clarify what you meant by battery bar? Did you mean the battery health? Or did you mean when you activate the phone, the battery percentage is at 50%?
