Deal Details
Edit 8/27/2026, Looks like trade-in deal is MOSTLY DEAD. On 8/21 it was revised to no longer accept broken devices, and on 8/27 modified so that older devices only get a $450 credit instead of $900.

Original post: Existing T-Mobile customers can get up to a $900 trade in value on Google Pixel 11 phones. The trade in can include some lower end phones, and works on older calling plans (including Go5G and ONE, but not simple choice)

The correct rebate only showed when I was logged into my T-mobile account. It says it's for "Essentials and select legacy plans". My old T-Mobile ONE plan worked. (edit: others have reported Simple Choice plans don't work, only a $250 rebate)

Here is a link to the base Pixel 11 for an example:

https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-pho...e-pixel-11

For a base Google Pixel 11 this would make it basically free. For higher end models it's a $900 discount.

Interestingly, the plan says the credits are split out over 36 months, but the checkout and my actual order confirmation show it's only spread over 24 months.

Important for Costco members: ordering from costco saves you a $35 device connection fee and may get you a $100 Costco card:

Edit 8/27/2026, Looks like trade-in deal is MOSTLY DEAD. On 8/21 it was revised to no longer accept broken devices, and on 8/27 modified so that older devices only get a $450 credit instead of $900.

Original post: Existing T-Mobile customers can get up to a $900 trade in value on Google Pixel 11 phones. The trade in can include some lower end phones, and works on older calling plans (including Go5G and ONE, but not simple choice)

The correct rebate only showed when I was logged into my T-mobile account. It says it's for "Essentials and select legacy plans". My old T-Mobile ONE plan worked. (edit: others have reported Simple Choice plans don't work, only a $250 rebate)

Here is a link to the base Pixel 11 for an example:

https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-pho...e-pixel-11

For a base Google Pixel 11 this would make it basically free. For higher end models it's a $900 discount.

Interestingly, the plan says the credits are split out over 36 months, but the checkout and my actual order confirmation show it's only spread over 24 months.

For some reason when I go to T-Mobile site - it gives me $900 credit for the old phone, but when I do the same thru Costco - it doesn't.

Gotta call the Costco T-Mobile line @ 833.428.1765 (double check this number before giving them acc details). They ask you for acc details to help and assist. Ask them if you are able to take advantage of this promo if you're interested. That's what I did to take advantage of the prior pixel 10 deals.

Double check bills for the next few months after taking advantage as I had 3 bills charge me more and had to speak to TMO 3 separate months to seemingly get it under control.

For everyone else:
My plan was changed from Magenta plus to Experience more. My plan increased ~$3/line (including the free lines according to T-LIFE). I was originally paying $120 for 3 lines when I first signed up years and years ago.

Now I'm at 7 lines for ~$150 (this is including 4k Netflix @ ~$22). 9 months of bill credits left on a pixel 10 pro (my backup phone @ $10), 18 months left on two pixel 10s, and 3x $100 Costco GCs later. My plan pricing doesn't add up, I know.

If 5 year price lock is true I'll wait for this years iPhone to see if there are any promos and that'll become my next backup as I'm on a 13 pro max and would like to switch from Apple. Likely going Graphene or LineageOS. 13 is degrading for sure with the OG battery. I keep a wireless external on me at all times to extend the life should I need it while my lightning picks and chooses when it wants to take a charge. Sometimes I'm charging AND losing battery percentage.

Yes T-Mobile is a shell of its former self and is now scummy, but I haven't jumped ship yet as it seems no one can beat or match my current plan I've built over the years.

Okay so I realize that I paid off my pixel 9, it still had 3 months of promo credits left, and I had to pay the $100 and had to sacrificed the future $100 of credits. so that was a bummer and you might be stuck with the pixel 10.

Maybe if I had a different old phone to trade in I could have kept two parallel streams of device credits.
If you pay off the phone before the promo credits end, you still get the promo credits........ At least that's how it's been on the phones I have purchased in the past.

Please explain how the pixel 10 deal was a trap? I received mines and pay 0 a month for it. T-Mobile credits the phone every billing cycle which satisfy the total amount owed for the phone. I only pay for my plan.
I have to agree with that. I have a ton of lines because my family and siblings share it but the fact that I'mAble to get cash back from the T-Mobile card, I'm pretty much getting my iPhone 17 pro max for free because of the cash back

Yes I would have thought that too. But I got a automated text message today saying "now that the device is paid off, your monthly recurring device credit of #33.34 has also ended"

They changed the terms for that in like 2024.

"You may have one Recurring Device Credits (RDC) promo per active Equipment Installment Plan (EIP).
If you pay off your EIP early, you'll forfeit the remainder of their monthly RDC if they choose to pay off their EIP early."

I am not seeing this deal anywhere on my account. First is asking if I want to keep my number and then for the trade-in, my s23 ultra 5g is broken so I am not getting any value for it.

Under no means will extend my tutelage to T-Mobile. Very much looking forward to porting my daughter's and my line out to US Mobile or Visible. Only hesitation is that I have their home wifi and it is excellent. Can I keep the home wifi without having any mobile plans? How much?

Why do you say that? I have like 10 lines playing under $200 a month on the old ONE Plus plan
It's just a people whining about the recent T-mo increase in monthly costs. They moved people off of legacy plans to their Essentials plan, which bumped up the price a few bucks per line. I have 5 lines and pay $112 on the new Essentials plan, since I kept my 3 free lines and employer discount. Plus I don't have to deal with the deprioritized garbage that you get with Mint, Visible, etc.

With the Costco $100 promotion, they are effectively paying me to upgrade to a Pixel 11. No complaints from this guy.

yes you can still use their home internet without a cell phone. It would increase the price by around $15 if I remember correctly.

I've always been a Galaxy guy, currently on an S23 - is upgrading it to a Pixel 11 worth it? I haven't read anything definitive or persuasive online - thanks!

As soon as your pixel 9 is paid I'm done with T-Mobile. They took away the credit card option to pay by removing $5 discount and now the line increases. Plus the Tuesdays are never useful to me.
Oh yea, t-mo Tuesdays is essentially advertising disguised as "exclusive deals for our valued customers". Same line as "you should be happy to pay $4/gallon for gas!" 😄
