T-Mobile Offering iPhone XR at No Extra Cost When Adding New Lines and Trading in Old iPhone

by

T-Mobile kicked off a new promotion today that lets new and existing customers get the 64GB iPhone XR at no extra cost when they add new voice lines and trade in a qualifying device.

t mobile offer 320
Specifically, the promotion is for up to $750 off the iPhone XR over 36 monthly bill credits at $20.84 per month. You can also put the $750 credit towards an iPhone XS or iPhone XS Max to reduce the price of the smartphones.

New customers will need to activate two new lines of qualifying service, one of which needs to be used with the new device being purchased. Existing T-Mobile customers will need to activate at least one new line of qualifying service to be used with the new device.

Secondly, you'll need to trade in one of the following eligible devices in good condition: iPhone X, iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus, iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus, iPhone 6s, iPhone 6s Plus, iPhone 6, or iPhone 6 Plus.

T-Mobile notes that this offer is available both in store nationwide and online at T-Mobile's website, but it'll only last for a limited time.

If you have access to Costco, check there for a similar promotion. I did back in November, traded in iPhone 6s for $50, added a line, received a MasterCard debit card with $700 about 20 days into the new line, and cancelled new line.

Used Apple Pay Cash to deposit MasterCard debit card to checking account. iPhone XR 128 GB cost about $80 after rebate.

Just make sure you keep an eye on your bill. T-Mobile often fails to apply the credit now and then, necessitating a call and about ten minutes of your life.

Just seems to me that 36 months is a long time to recoup $750.

My understanding was that if you cancelled the lines within a year, the credit was taken away...
No, the nice thing with the Costco offer is they can’t take the credit - it comes within a few weeks in a MasterCard debit card which you use or deposit right away. I cancelled the new line and I wasn’t subject to waiting 3 years to receive all the credits.

That's no longer the case, and now iPhones financed...
