At Costco, they told me I’d be paying for the lines, but I knew from the Slickdeals thread that they would be free. The one or two times I added via Costco, I just confirmed with T-Force on Twitter that I was eligible for the free line and then I went into Costco and added the line there. This latest promotion requires BYOD, so I wonder if it may stack if Costco has or begins an offer like that. The other fun stack has been that there is a frequent Costco promotion to get a $300 Costco gift card when you add a line in-warehouse and bring your own device. Unfortunately, this add-a-line promotion is not eligible for any of the “add a line, get a free/discounted phone” promos, so you won’t be able to stack a deeply discounted phone that comes with an added line. One way to stack in the past has been to get a free or discounted phone for adding a line (which you could keep or sell as a bonus win for adding a line!). In the past, I wrote about these free add-ons because they were particularly valuable if they could be stacked with other promotions. I’ve been able to add a bunch of family members to my plan and save them all a bundle of money thanks to these promos. I get a great deal on service (I pay $128 for what will now be 10 lines on Magenta Max) thanks to constantly jumping on these free line promotions. Personally, these free line promos have worked out very well for me since I have so few paid lines and I also took advantage of the Insider Hookup deal when we wrote about that last year, which gives me 20% off for life. Switching to a plan like Magenta or Magenta Max will likely be unappealing for some, so this deal won’t work out for everyone. It sounds like many/most people on Magenta or Magenta Max plans are eligible - military and 55+ plans often aren’t eligible for these free line promos, but it never hurts to ask. I’m on Magenta Max (I’m actually on the 9-12 line version of that because of all of the other promo lines on my account) and I was eligible. Typically, you need to keep all of your current lines open for a year after adding a free line or T-Mobile will charge you for the free line.įirst up, I don’t know for sure which plans qualify and which don’t.Your benefits will vary based on your plan. So, for instance, since I’m on Magenta Max, my free line gets unlimited talk / text / data (with no throttle cap) / 40GB of hotspot per month / 5GB of high-speed data abroad, etc. “Free” lines get the same plan / benefits as your paid lines.It is likely that only Magenta and Magenta Max plans qualify, though it’s always worth checking to see. Direct link to a Slickdeals thread with tons of info.Note that response times tend to slow way down during these free line promos, so don’t be surprised if it takes an hour or two to get a message back - you can do this slowly over the course of hours. To find out if you qualify to add a free line, chat with T-Mobile via Twitter, Facebook messenger, or perhaps via chat in the T-Mobile app or iMessage.This is coded as 2022 BYOD Line P1 and it just began today (12/15/22). T-Mobile is offering the chance for customers on qualifying plans with 2 or more postpaid lines to add a free line. Even if you don’t think you want another line, it can be worth taking advantage of this if you qualify. T-Mobile now charges a $35 “device connection fee” for adding a line, so I did have to pay for that (and tax on that), so I essentially paid a one-time cost of $37.80 for the SIM card. Since I’m on Magenta Max (which has taxes included in the main plan), the free line doesn’t even add any tax – it’ll literally cost me absolutely nothing more on my monthly bill. In my case, I was able to add my sixth free line - so I now have 4 paid lines and 6 free lines. Do you want to be alerted about new deals as they’re published?
