I'm grandfathered in on the Adantage Club premium plus $35/mo plan and I've always just hit up T-Force on X/Twitter and gotten a new iPhone every 2 years with a $1000 trade in credit. Love it! Never changing!
What do you say to them. I'm on an old SERO>Unlimited Advantage plan and have not had any offers for years? Thanks

Do yourself a favor, unless you're getting 4 lines or more, buy a mint condition iPhone on swappa or buy directly from Apple or best buy unlocked and then get a service like visible or us mobile. You'll save hundreds monthly with T-Mobile new pricing.

In the distant past, you could call them up and tell them ahead of time that you were planning on traveling internationally and they would do a temporary unlock but I don't know if they still do that since they want you to roam and pay $$.
They will not. The phone will be locked until it's paid off.

Has anyone tried to buy a Straight Talk iPhone 16e from Walmart for $200 (in-store) to use as a trade-in?

I don't see why that wouldn't work.
I did the metro deal a few weeks back for around $160 for a 16e and used that to trade it in.
I did 2 of those 16e

I am concerned if ST does not enforce their plan when buying discounted phones.

New plans are no longer tax inclusive. So, that adds $5-7/line. Monthly costs average at least $35-40/line with Experience More. New accounts opened at Costco qualify for $400-450/line if ported from eligible carriers. That offsets the cost reasonably for the first two years, but phones will be locked until fully paid off.

This deal works best for existing customers already on qualified plans for upgrades, especially with free lines and discounts. I plan to maximize my benefits on Go5G+ while it's still worth.

how many lines do you have?
I have 4 and I am thinking of porting a number from a verizon account but I'm not sure how much it will be for that 5th line

You bring in two at a time for BOGO. Each line is $45 on Go5G+. If you have an Insider Discount, it is $36. So, two lines for $36 or $45 is better than one.

We have 11-lines with Insider and 6 are free lines for $135/month. Four of the six free lines continue to qualify for upgrades even after the policy change.

Easy - Iphone 16e for ~$260 Straight Talk from WalMart in-store ($200 phone +$45 Svc + tax)
Longer, but lower-priced way: ~$170 - activate your own number on MetroByT-mobile, and use their Iphone 16e for $99 promotion

Has anyone tried the metro 16e with the $40 CB as a "new" customer? There's also a possible Chase offer 15% off for metro too

iPhone 13 should be cheap as well in the used market

edit: disregard, was reminded the 13 gets $830 in credit.
