Qualifying credit and Magenta, Essentials, ONE, Business Unlimited, or Simple Choice plan required. Credits may take up to 2 bill cycles; credits will stop if you cancel any lines.

Are you eligible for this promotion?
Not all plans with 2 lines qualify.
Only if you don’t have a promotional plan already. they said im not eligible
Don’t think you need a sim card to activate it.
What is a “promotional” plan?
TMobile one with autopay as far as I understand
Just got the free line
U still need to buy/bring your own phone, though!
i got a free pixel 5g to go with it!
Did you really? How’d you manage that?
They told me I need a new paid line for the free phone promotion.
I got it! The iphone deals won’t stack with this, but Google pixel did!
Yupppp same 🙂 thnx for this! @jj @dan this guy deserves a huge ht
More details please!
If you trade in any older pixel phone and open a new line (including a free line) you can get a Pixel 4a 5G for free
what if I already got a free line on a past promotion?
Ut works I just get my third free line
I have 5 lines, now 6 with the promotion. There is a $10 Sim card fee and then $20 activation. I already have one free line from one of the early T-Mobile Tuesday promotions
I have 4 lines already and was told I don’t qualify. Why would that be
I have 6 lines and they told me that I am not eligible.
“Simple Choice Family Match plan you have is not eligible for that promotion because it is already it’s own promotional plan.”
When does this promo end?
Today only?
Thank you, it worked for me. I have 4 unlimited lines and now have 5.
I’m assuming it does not include Metro PCS, which is by T-Mobile?
Would it work for Sprint (now T-Mobile)?
Never mind, just saw the link for Sprint was included.
Any one not going to use their extra line I would love to make a deal. Dm me on the forums.
Worked for me.. 6th line
Thx!
Thanks for letting us know…
Truly interesting that you found out about it and I as a T-Mobile customer had no idea…
I am hooked up with the app and they have not notified us in any way…
nformed by the T-Mobile rep that you only get the free line if you add an extra. So like a BOGO offer. I have two lines and would only get a free if I added a paid third line. Anybody know any different?
False. HUCA.
Signed up for 7th line through the chat (2nd free line) I pay $23 a line with North American roaming and data. I think the people that don’t qualify might be because of hardware upgrades on their account. I always buy my phones outright and have been offered other amazing deals.
Rep said my Simple Choice plan does qualify. Thanks.
I see that you wrote this free line has unlimited talk n text but limited data…
The tmobile rep said it will have wtvr the other lines on the plan have…
Since you’re usually more knowledgeable than any customer service representative of any company and I mean that seriously, where do you see that information so I can ask T-Mobile about it?
I was told the same thing. The same data as my other four lined!
Meanwhile, if your 15% Advantage Discount was just removed from the legacy 4+ line 2.5GB Simple Choice plan, here’s the solution to get it back: https://www.reddit.com/r/tmobile/comments/h0gq3b/corporate_volume_discount_removed_from_promo/fw8i1bc/ . (This is a PSA for those who three weeks ago received a text from T-Mobile saying “Important notice: We recently determined you are receiving a monthly discount of approximately $15 on your T-Mobile bill that you aren’t eligible for. This discount will be removed starting 7/10/2020. We’re sorry about this mix-up; you wont be charged for any previously received discounts. For details: http://www.t-mo.com/FAQAVD “
Anyone knows if simple mobile thru T-mobile works?
I have a legacy simple choice family plan 2 lines. My coworker told me that his cousin works at a retail T-Mobile and I could sign up. I called him and he wanted me to come in to the store. I called customer service, and they did it over phone. No code or anything. Paid $30 via CC for Sim card, but he credited it back to my account. I will get activated card in 7 days.
Does this work for Sprint?
I have the unlimited “kickstart” Sprint plan for $25. A few months they offered free additional line so I now have 2 unlimited lines for $25. I assume I won’t be able to get a 3rd line now for free?
Anyone know how tmobile compares to att? I have att and would switch to tmobile as its cheaper, but not at the cost of worse service. Im in lakewood.
Still wondering….
I have T-Mobile it definitely got better over the years in Lakewood.
Thanks! Do you know how it compares to att or Verizon? Better, worse, same?
I have used Verizon in Lakewood, while I will say it is a tad better.
If you’re going to use T-Mobile make sure it’s a 4G phone.
Thanks. I find ATT better than Verizon. I am not going to sacrifice the service quality for a cheaper deal, so if an one else has any input on their service here please let me know!
Is this a new offer or the same offer?
if you have promotional plan in your current plan, the free line won”t qualify. instead you can switch to one the qualified plan and get a free line
Do I need to do this? they told me my plan can only hold 8 lines and I have 8 , so I would need to get a diff plan should I do it?
I had the exact situation last time. The plan i was on was up to 8 lines, but they moved me to an identical plan with 9+ lines. Just confirm all details of the plan stay the same. I believe its just the way the plan is categorized in their system.
Do business plans qualify?
A salesperson told me that I’m not eligible because I have a business plan
I chatted a few times on twitter and confirmed that even though I got the free line a few months ago, I can get the free line promo again.
In a nutshell, Magenta will give (almost) everyone a free voice line with no strings attached or hoops to jump through. All you need is to already have two paid lines of wireless service on a “qualifying rate plan” or be willing to activate them now in order to get a third one at no extra cost.
If that happens to sound familiar, it’s probably because T-Mo offered similar deals several times in the recent (and not-so-recent) past. And yes, you can score a complimentary third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eight, ninth, tenth, eleventh, or twelfth voice line no matter how many times you’ve previously claimed identical freebies.
Even better, the killer new promotion will apparently be stackable with a number of other top T-Mobile Black Friday deals, including that gratis Pixel 4a 5G with a trade-in. Unfortunately, the same doesn’t go for several of Magenta’s latest iPhone offers, so you won’t be able to get a free iPhone 12 or $950 off a 12 Pro or 12 Pro Max with a free line of service.
Before doing your pre-holiday celebration dance, you may also want to keep in mind not all plans and existing customers will actually be eligible for this crazy “holideal”, although the full list of exclusions and exceptions is not yet available
Port a number in (ebay) for the new line and get the $100 BYOD promotion.
Not all plans qualify for the free line but most standard plans do I believe. You don’t even need to request anything special, open a new line and it right away you will see the line on us promotion on your account.
Can u explain this?
what’s the code to tell the rep? They aren’t seeing anything, on the phone with them now
The Offer
New and existing T-Mobile customers will be able to get a free voice line in store or via T-Force (T-Force is T-Mobile’s social media team. You can also text 611 and reference ‘Doc 20Q23‘).
New customers must activate 2 voice lines and the third line will be free
Existing customers must have at least two paid voice lines
this worked perfectly ty.
If anyone want to join an unlimited t mobile account pm on the forums
Does this work on T-Mobile prepaid plans? I have two lines.
Got my 6th free line! Thanks myi 🙂
Enjoy.
To bad I have 8 paid lines and 0 free!
That’s what happens when you added on a family plan and don’t pay the bill!
A rep told me if you do cancel or cancelled previously a line within 3 months you don’t qualify.
Is that true? Would love to switch a paid line for a free one
Correct
I would like to bring My dad into my plan I currently have 2 lines, would it be possible he currently with tmobile? But pays over $120 for only his line?
You should be able to bring him into your plan.
But first get a 3rd free line and then port his number over and cancel his line…
BZ, sorry I want to make sure I understand.
But if I get a third line will be a random number? How to I make that third line his current phone #?
Once you have the 3rd line in place you port over his number and change the number to his old number
Call 611 they will help you
Dan’s Deals just informs you about various deals as a free service but this site is not affiliated with t-mobile…
It worked for me. First it asked me, where did you hear about it? But then she went ahead and did it. I had gotten a free sim card from the T-mobile dealer and I used it. Last time that I added one it was free this time they charged me 20 dollars. Not so bad for an extra line…
Besides getting new cell service for someone, what are some other creative ideas for an extra, not very necessary, line?
Get a sim-capable tablet and use it as a data line
I was able to get my 3rd free line and they let me get a phone deal to boot!
What phone deal if I may ask?
Will this work with the Magenta over 55 (or 60) – the 2 lines for seniors program
Activate the extra line at Costco (in store) for free – no activation charge – and also get a Costco $200 card. No new phone needed.. Just bring your own device. Ask for the BYOD promotion
Do I need to have a phone to get the free line? Can i buy a sim card?
You can use your existing phone’s IMEI for the free line. You would need a phone, since this is a line added to your existing Tmobile acct. (If you think this is a free line without an existing Tmobile acct, read the post again) If you activate (in store) in Costco, they give you a free sim + free activation ($35 savings) + $200 Costco gift card
Re p says this promotion only works for postpaid plans, not prepaid. I wonder if she knows what she’s talking about? Anyone here know?
Qualifying credit and Magenta, Essentials, ONE, Business Unlimited, or Simple Choice plan required
Not all Simple Choice plans qualify. Mine doesn’t. 🙁
Got a free line! Thank you!
Btw, the T-Mobile representative told me today is the last day for this promo
Just got the free line with a free iPhone se(paid 35 bucks for taxes)
Thanks Dan
How?
On the promo page it says adding a line gets 50% off that phone and that’s when you PAY for the line….
Not all plans qualify. My family choice unlimited plan doesn’t qualify. There is a list with plan codes that confirms which ones qualify
Do u have link to the list? Thank you!
I have 8 lines, now 4 with the of them are free and now i added a 5th. There is a $10 Sim card fee and then $20 activation. But i told the rep that i never pay this so she removed the the fee .
Is costco still having the Costco promotion for adding another T-Mobile line?
I imagine if you can make it to a Costco tonight
Got mine.
Can you cancel a line if you have 5 and add this one for free.?
First get one free and then worry about cancelling.
i had signed up for the “free” line and then they added $50 to my bill.
Did anyone else have this?
They are charging me $25.50 for the “free” line. Just went to T-Mobile to get it taken care of, but now they say I don’t qualify for it. I told them to cancel. Then they screwed up by applying a trade in to the new line instead of an existing line, so now if I cancel, I lose out on the trade in value.
T-mobile free line tomorrow HOT!:)
plan with at least 2 paid lines can add a line for free.
Now available.
Please note: There’s a lot of misinformation and confusion around this promo. Inevitable when a promo like this happens half a month after an identical one just ended. Here are some critical nuggets of info: – The promo is called “2020 Line On Us 4” – It is fully stackable with “2020 Line On Us 3” – Internal docs mention a scenario where it isn’t stackable. It is referring to “third line free” promos and only to accounts opened on the 20th or later. This appears to be causing confusion.
Ineligible stackable promos: – iPhone 12 “on us” (2020 Apple Trade Activate P3) – BOGO iPhone (2020 Apple Buy 2 P11) – Free Galaxy A71 5G with new line (2020 Samsung Activate P12) – Free OnePlus 8/8T+ 5G with new line (2020 OnePlus Activate P5) – BYOD promos from Costco –
(T-mobile customers are already receiving it today)

This is a FAQ about the deal….
It starts today…
have 7 lines from tmobile and paying for only 2!!!!!
According to T-Mobile along with many other people say that T-Mobile will NOT give you the free line today if you got it last month
Still have my original Sprint Kickstarter ($15/m, plus much fees) plan, missed this when they originally had it, but it doesn’t seem like they’ll add it if you only have one line, though I think the original “Free Line On Us” would have worked, going to try calling anyway just to make sure…
If you canceled a line with Tmobile within the past 90 days you won’t be eligible.
Does this stack with any promos for a free phone?
I wanto start a new phone plan (im currently on prepaid) what’s the best deal out there ?
Be aware that when you go to the tmobile store, you should go to a T-Mobile owned store not a franchisee who most likely will screw up things so they can make money
Thanks !
Last time I tried it and 2 reps denied me because my plan wasn’t eligible. Now however they approved it. Go figure.
How about on a sprint plan
I got this last month can I get it again??
Call and let us know 🙂
Yes, I got it last month and I am eligible again…
Thank you!! We have Magenta Plus. We have a 6 line account (of which I think two are free). Got another free line (7th) and only had to pay for the SIM (activation fee waived). Did not need to have a phone right now.
Your welcome. My pleasure
Just got a free line and a free pixel 4a 5g. When requesting for the free line, ask them to stack “the free pixel” promotion to it and it does work. Thanks @dan
Us that a trade-in deal?
That offer is not around so not quite sure how you did that?
But an iphone promo would be a better value even after a $200 trade in.
If I’m not mistaking, this doesn’t stack with the iphone deals. (At least when they ran this promo last month it didn’t)
It sure did work last month.
Iphone 12 mini
Thats interesting because I asked them for that and they said only 50% off the pixel…
Is that straight up free or with a trade in?
Is sprint eligible for this?
Thank you Dan! (I don’t know how you stay “up” on all these deals! :-))
I got in just under the wire. And – as I’m on the TMobile One plan, my third line also has unlimited data it seems!
He’s got a lot of devoted friends and chasidim who send him emails and post comments that it’s alive again….:)
does it work with esim?
T-mobile rep told me the line get unlimited data as well. Post says limited.
Rep told me the promotion is not valid if the 2 lines you have are on leased phones. Does that make sense or should I try a different rep?
Try a a different rep.
Or you could go to Costco to add the new line and get yourself a $100 Costco card for free.
Also no sim card charge or activation charges
They charged me the sim card fee.
Do I have to be a costco member? Do I have to bring along my own phone? (Btw my 2 lines are sprint, not sure if that matters) thanks!
This also for metro by T-Mobile?
How reliable is T-Mobile coverage in NYC?
Thank you for this information. Knowing what it is called and to reach out via Twitter helped a ton!
3 Free lines is nice, but still not going to do it.
Are you able to port in a number from Verizon and qualify for this promo? or they need to give you a new number?
It should work and if not you can always get a new number and then the next day call to port your number to replace the new number
Will this work with Sprint as well?
Anyone know if Costco is currently having any gc offers for new lines?
Got an answer… Currently $150 gift card for adding the line. Should stack with this offer
SO I just got it with Tmobile and a free samsung A11. Can I go to costco and now do it or did I lose out?
I just called TMobile and the Rep insisted I could either get a phone or a free line but not both
Is this a case of hang up and call back to find someone who will do it?
I can’t get to a Costco, although there is a TMobile store near me I can walk to.
Does this work if you are on the Senior Plan or whatever it is called? I believe not
No
does anyone know how long the free line is free ? is it only for this year and they will start charging next year ?
Forever.
i cant believe it. i got a free phone and free unlimited line. only down side is i have to change my number but ill get used to that.
just beware: the phone can only come with the free line meaning if u only want a free line and you must get the phone. BUT you can just take the sim card out of the free phone and put it into the phone ur using now if you wish. the rep told me she was waiting for me to get to that conclusion lol. it was funny!
came out to be 46$ bc of activation fee (30$) and tax(16$) worth it for unlimited data!
thanks dan you made my day!
updating my post: @Dan: my contract actually says 6GB data. is this a mistake? your post claims unlimited. shud i call or once its done its done?
I love replying to my own posts: i called rep and they upgraded to unlimited plan!
Can you only get the phone and not the free line?
You have to add a line to get a free phone, so when you add the free line then you can get the free phone as well.
Everyone is boasting, bragging about how many “free lines” they have added with these free add a line promo for existing customers but not saying what exactly their plan is or how much they are paying. Some say they have so far added 4 free lines with these promos. One guy said he now has 6 lines for $100. is this true?
In my situation, I am stuck with a grand fathered promo called TMO ONE ALL IN PROMO and it is 3 lines total for $100 including kickback, tax and fees. I am never eligible for any free add a line promo even after talking to supervisors and the only plan they can switch me to meganta max plan 4 lines for $180.
Thank you Dan! Got another line as well as a free Samsung Galaxy A11!
Got a free line with a ‘Galaxy A71 5G’ for $99
I’m trying this and they said the free line and free device are 2 separate promos….
Got the free line and a galaxy a11 for free!!
When is this offer expiring?
Dan and jj, you guys are legemds!
Just got off the phone with tmobile and added a free line with the galaxy a71 5g for $99!!!
Called in today 3/23 and agent signed me up, just needed a new sim card $10 plus tax, free usps shipping. She told me offer ends today. Received email with service agreement, fees for extra line $3.18/month
Can someone reply to this comment when this deal comes out. I do not want to miss it.
Got now 3 free lines added to my business acct!! I asked for one free line and they offered me 3..
(They didn’t let me combine this offer with the free phone promotion when adding a line {like I did last year..})
