T-Mobile will give you a free phone with a trade-in, regardless of its condition or your plan
A verified T-Mobile employee on Reddit has revealed that the Moto Edge 2024 is currently available for any plans with any trade-in. Even better, the phone’s condition or model doesn’t matter either. That means cracked phones or those with other issues will still be accepted as long as the IMEI can be verified.
Be aware that the phone might be free, but you will be required to pay a $35 connection charge. Beyond that, there doesn’t seem to be any other catches. No plan changes required.
