That's how it's been for a while in the industry. If you trade in a phone for a deal on a new one they take the full price and divide it over 24 months. You have to keep the phone 24 months to get what they quoted you. If you pay it off early you forfeit whatever amount of the monthly credits you didn't already receive.
That's bullshyt. Tmobile sends you the card after a month or two

Not really.
T-Mobile’s iPhone 8 trade-in deal is complicated, but still worth it

There are two deals going on here. The first is a simple trade-in promo for the iPhone 8: trade in any qualifying device (any iPhone newer than an iPhone 6) and you’ll get $300 in trade-in credit. Most of that comes in the form of an immediate bill credit for the trade-in value of the device, and is applied immediately, and the balance is in bill credits applied over two years. For example, an iPhone 6S Plus might have a trade-in value of $155, determined by T-Mobile’s trade-in calculator. You’ll get that $155 in bill credits immediately, and then the remaining $145 of that $300 value is applied in the form of bill credits spread out over 24 months.

Note 8 is 8 weeks..who cares about about the iPhone...that's for suckers.

You could get the iPhone on another carrier for m9nthly payments ..wait a month or two. Let's say Verizon..They got unlocked ones, right? Then cross over to T mobile and they'll pay off the balance of your new Verizon iPhone to go with them and you get a free phone. Easy. That's the game. My best friend does it all the time.

Its' called jump..jump on demand is the one every month and no insurance.
I used to do Jump-On-Demand with T-mobile a couple years back when I got my Note5. Finally looking to upgrade; thought it would be as simple as using the perks of Jump! On Demand. But they told me the whole system has changed when it comes to flagship devices. So now:

Jump! On Demand: Free to join/maintain. Lower end devices (what the agents referred to as $100 phones, albeit the value may be more than $100). Can "jump" to an eligible device every 30 days w/o having to pay any additional charges or fees within the 18-month cycle

Jump!: THIS is the first option for flagship devices (iPhone's and higher end Galaxy/LG devices). You pay a monthly fee to join this program. You can "jump" to an eligible device after 50% of your current device is paid off. T-mobile will pay for the remaining balance, but you get no credit toward the next device. So if you are not under the "well-qualified" credit standard, then you will have to pay a deposit on the new device when you "jump"--typically no less than 50% of the price for the new device. Tablets are eligible for this program. Includes device protection.

Jump! PLUS: Everything as Jump (w/ higher monthly fee), in addition to remote help desk support.

I wanted to play around before settling on my choice between Note8 and iPhoneX, but there's no grandfather clause to benefit from the old structure.

I'm on regular Jump...used it 3x over the last year because of the Note 7 thing. If the Note 7 had held up..I would still have thst phone obviously since it was the best phone of the last two years except not having the dual camera...

That's not a trade in deal that's a specific program they offer.

A trade in deal is you have a device on a list and you own said device and trade it in. Like I posted if you do a trade in they take a fair amount of it and distribute it over 24 months. They do this to keep you locked in for the 2 years.

That's why when I got my iPhone 7 I skipped trade ins. I'm not trying to be stuck paying monthly payments to get my full trade value.

Yea, I wanted the Note7. But they had discontinued selling them by the time I went to upgrade. I wasn't even all that concerned about the exploding battery, but they refused to sell them (even before the recall). This Note8 is a thing of beauty, as well. I didn't realize that T-mobile had changed up the program until I tried to go cop the Note8. But I understand b/c I'm sure they lost a lot of money allowing people to switch up every month. They should've kept the OG method of limiting to 3 "jumps" in a 12-month span. I jumped once and my son jumped twice under that system.

I was told I could jump anytime period as long as 50% is paid off.

On my t mobile page..it shows how much is left for Jump eligiblity. I just sent the S8 Plus back like last Thurs..maybe Weds and those expensive ass cases they tried to peg me down with for the second Note 8. Nah...I don't do $40 cases. Ever.

Yea, you're right. I should have clarified. The way it used to be was that you had 3 times you could jump w/in a 12-month period regardless of how much you still owed. So I had to put $0 down when I got me and my son's phones. I just had to pay the monthly installment. A coupla weeks later, I jumped to the Note5 without paying anything. And I could've done it 2 more times on my 18-month lease. Under that system, it didn't matter how much was still owed on your device.
