iPhone trade in $830 credits
So I work for T-Mobile customer care and can promise you the promo is real and you do not have to make any account changes like a rate plan change nor add a line. Now every account is not eligible for it though. You’d have to call in and they can see if you have the targeted promotion, also to say this promotion is only available through customer care, I’ve attempted to send some customers to the stores, followed up with them, and store claims they don’t see the promotion. I’ve had luck with experience stores being able to get a customer the promotion if they are a targeted customer. Additionally you only pay sales tax, no activation/upgrade fee. So if you have good account finance credit, you’re only paying sales tax. This promotion is very real and has been going on a little over a month. Of course you have to turn in your device within the time frame and it not be a lost/stolen device but just about any phone you can trade in. Don’t listen to the users here claiming it moves you to another plan, cause it does not if you have this targeted promotion I can assure you 100% best bet is to call and see if you have it.

The Famous Free Pixel 10 Promo Is Back At T-Mobile, With A Bonus
I can never understand the “Don’t finance with T-Mobile” concept. It’s literally the best financing on the planet? 0% APR is cash price. If you leave you pay what’s left. Your money today is worth more than your money tomorrow because of inflation. It’s actually a great service they provide and one of the best reasons to be on postpaid account in the first place. You can leave at any time anyway. To each their own, but I don’t think the retention argument holds water. You WOULD need to have service on it for 90 days, if that’s the retention we are talking about, fair enough. More on reddit.com

I’m on a grandfather plan and was looking to upgrade my old iPhone for the 17. Was told by by T-Mobile I can trade any iPhone damaged or not for $830 without changing my plan. It’s not advertised they call it in house targeted upgrade. Anyone have experience with this? Sounds fishy

June 4, 2025 - (In other words, if you cancel or switch wireless providers early, T-Mobile has the right to deny you the remaining credits on your trade-in promotion.) For instance, at the time of this writing, T-Mobile was offering six different special promotions on the Samsung Galaxy S25. Of course, these deals are unlikely to still be active as you read this, so these are strictly for example.

r/tmobile on Reddit: 4 new lines, 4 free iPhones, $830 per phone trade-in statement credit. Is this for real?
November 23, 2025 -

Hello all,

I have the need to upgrade four older iPhones. My carrier, Verizon, will let us upgrade for free but with a 3 year contract. Additionally, I don't believe they will allow trade-ins for statement credit. T mobile seems to have a very aggressive deal that will only requires a 2 year contract and will provide free iphones and statement credit for trade ins. I tried to purchase 4 new plans to transfer my phones from Verizon, adding my trade-in info for each line. Unfortunately they wouldn't process the order and asked me to go to a store, which I abhor the idea. Anyway, in the end, if I transfer 4 phones to 4 experience beyond plans, t mobile will give me 4 free iPhone 17 Pros and accept 4 trade-ins for a monthly statement credit of $125 (total credit /24 mos). That's a great deal if it's correct. Can someone who knows this deal let me know if I'm right about this, please. I don't want to go to the store unless I am sure this is the deal.

Update: I've had some issues with T-Mobile regarding my account. I wanted to view my account to see the plan and phones and check if the account was correct before porting the numbers to the 6 phones I received yesterday. To make a long story short, only 4 lines are eligible for the deal, but the other two lines can take a trade in. I've got 2 14's and the max version gets me an even trade for a new 17pro. I hope the normal 14 will do the same. I have a call schedule tomorrow to finalize this stuff. I don't get any statement credits other than my phone deposit amount which will be credited over 24 months. I also eventually get 2200 from Costco. It can take ten weeks they said.

Update #2: I just found out that the free phone deal is available for all the phones, not just 4. In my situation, 5 used the deal, and 1 used a trade-in worth $1100 because we have 1 phone that has an $800 balance with Verizon. When I get the final bill from Verizon, I have to submit it to T-Mobile and they will pay for it.

November 6, 2025 -

My math is 1099.99-830=270. So 11.25x24 month is the 270. I’m already on Go5plus plan with 4 other lines. My monthly bill is 237 (5 lines + wifi) and I been with tmobile since forever so like this 24 month lock isnt a worry for me as my current phone was also on 24 month previously. So I’m just asking if im missing anything hidden fees stuff or this is solid. I’m also planning to go to tmobile in DE for no sales tax so I’ll be saving 595 versus trade in at apple the phone cost 900 (1099-200 (ip13 trade in))

r/tmobile on Reddit: “Black Friday Promotions”
October 26, 2025 -

I’m here to post awareness, I’m a T-Mobile retail associate but realistically I joined t-mobile to help people and to not mess up peoples accounts. That what brings ME happiness.

I went through promotions to see what’s new right now since Black Friday is coming up. From what I seen is absolutely terrible I can’t help everyone I know but I CAN bring awareness atleast for the watches and tablets.

New Promotion (iPad A16)

iPad A16 (on us) 36 month lease

Equipment: $0 Plan: $25 (autopay)

= $900

Old Promotion

iPad A16 (50% Off) 24 Month Lease

Equipment: $10.41 Plan: $25 (autopay)

= $850 ———————————————————————— New Promotion

Apple Watch (On Us) 36 month

Equipment: $0 Plan: $15 (autopay)

= $540

Old Promotion

Apple Watch ($200 Off) 24 Months

Equipment: $4.16 Plan: $15 (autopay)

= $483.16

Do what you like with this information, I dislike this company because it’s used to be so much more better in the promotion department. Everything now compared to when magenta max was the highest plan, seems like it’s all a cash grab. Please refer to this if you are thinking about getting either APPLE WATCH OR iPAD. I am here to help the customers ♥️
