I feel like I'm on cell phone crack, I've read every review for every new smartphone release from every carrier the past few weeks, anyway, I just stumbled upon this.

Free 2 day shipping (might be able to get it in the store also) update-yes you can!
Free Handsfree Earbud
Free Bluetooth Headset

All backed by Costco's excellent service

just realized they messed up on the home page for the wireless saying it has a dual core processor lol

if you pic it up in the store, do you still get the free bluetooth, car charger, case?

I've read somewhere, I think it was T-mobile forums, and someone said that Costco is giving out accessories with the phone in store. Of course, I cannot say this is true. Just give them a call and ask.


It is verified, you get the car charger, blue tooth, and case, even at the store. Both costcos in my areas have everything in stock.
If you are a new customer, they will waive the activation fee. Upgrading customers pay 18 dollars to upgrade.
New customers get the phone 99 (no mail in rebate required) at costco stores and only tax on 99 bucks, no tax on the full 499 retail price of the phone!!!!!! That saves another 50 bucks if you live in california.

If you are not a new customer, you are an upgrading customer. Costco stores will sell the phone for 149.99, charge you tax only on 149.99, then give you a 50 dollar mail in rebate. So at the end, the upgrading customer gets the phone for 99 bucks also. Tax only on 149.99, thats so awesome! You also get the car charger, blue tooth, and case!

I was in Costco tonight and it was only $99 for upgrades, no MIR.

Can you rephrase your statement, I didn't understand, what do you mean no MIR. They told you for upgrades, it was 99 out the door?
I think the rep didn't know what he was saying at the costco kiosk you went to. For upgrades its deff 149.99 with 50 mail in rebate, if you get it through the costco store kiosks. Unless you live in a different state, and they opperate differently. maybe i'm mistaken, but i dont think so.

It was definitely $99 for either a new activation, upgrades(any line 1-5), and add a line. The prices were on the display under the phone. No mail in rebate was required. I live in NJ. It is online at costco.com this way also.

Can anyone else confirm that T-Mobile will price-match?

I bought my phone, new to T-Mobile, from a T-Mobile store. Can I go there with the ad and have them adjust what I paid?

So I called T Mo. Told them whats going on and they said to cancel and go buy at Costco. So I so OK. They transferred me to another rep. Told him, he said that he would give me $10 off per month forever (As long as I keep that account) and because they were not the cheapest, he would give me $50 credit immediately. WOO HOO - All I wanted was the $100 difference and T Mo went above and beyond. Yep, sticking with them!

If only i had a Costco membership! I dont so still got mine for $149 at Walmart so , same thing. But, sure would of liked the freebees. I did pick up a car charger for $9.99 at a Circle K and i need it. The Battery life on the Vibrant isnt that great. Turned it on at 6:45 am, and when i got home at 4 pm, i had 18% left.

However, i did call the loyalty department and i got my internet that was $30 on both Vibrants down to $20. Been with T-Mobile nearly 7 years.
