Getting the Free Phone:

If someone on DDF goes through the process now, please report on what parts of this Wiki are still accurate. Thanks!


Everything Below this line is outdated info!
As of a Jan 2016, At&t has changed the way that you get the phone.

The online system is broken for now, so you need to go to a At&T store, buy a phone outright with the card, and send them a picture of the receipt.
You will still need to sign up for the $45 prepaid plan, but no credit check is required.

They do not even ask to see your SS#

This should be much better if you want to use the phone on another network or sell it (or possibly just return it).

The report I got said that there is no requirement to have 15 days of service, but I wouldn't rely on the rep that said that until I confirm it is true.

If you plan on using the phone, before turning on the phone for the 1st time, request that AT&T unlock the phone at  www.att.com/deviceunlock/ (for Customer Type select 'Non-AT&T Mobility customer'). If you activate the phone before requesting the unlock, your account will have to stay active for 60 days before AT&T will unlock the phone (there are reports of the phones being unlocked after closing the account, regardless of service time)


The old way it used to work, (and how it probably works now as well).

If you are on AT&T Postpaid plan:
  • You'll be able to login to your At&t Account with the link Citi sends you, and purchase any No-contract phone. Pay with this card.
  • Activate it on your plan, and use it on At&t for at least 15 days.
  • Citi will reimburse you 1-2 statements later for for up to $650 of the phone cost, you pay all taxes.

If you are not a AT&T customer:
  • You will need to pay for the 1st month service (min ~$50)
  • You will get a 2nd Hard Pull from AT&T to open a postpaid account.
  • Plenti: Before opening the Att line, make a account with plenti, and link to your AT&T account here. You should get 2,500 plenti points for opening a new Att Line (current deal until 11/26/2015), plus 400 points for using paperless billing, which you can redeem for $29 (I think this is how it works, someone who has dome this please confirm and delete this comment)

Can I get added to my friends At&t service for one month?
How does Citi even know if I get AT&T service?
I'd be very surprised if Citi IT can check if I got AT&T service.
Bump

Call the card, and ask of you can buy the phone in a retain location then send in a Receipt as proof of purchase.

IIRC, when buying like this they do not verify wether you activated it on Att.

DP: I called and confirmed I can buy the phone in the AT&T store.
I then bought it AND DID NOT START ANY SERVICE OR ADD TO ANY PLAN and faxed the receipt. Within 2 days I got the $650 credit.
Because the credit was applied manually I imagine I can return the phone and keep the credit.
I'll report back later.

Good. This was a great card that probably met its demise because of scammers.

Didn't mention the offer. But I returned that phone and they clawed back the credit. And now every store I go to won't sell me a phone without a plan. So I plan on going to a store with a friend who has AT&T service and buying the phone.

I guess they wizened up.

Hope they let you use the credit again...

Good luck getting the credit again. They obviously smartened up when it comes to the scammers.

It's got nothing to do with scamming. I didn't like the phone so I'm buying a different one.

LOL. Give us a break.

If you intended to keep the phone as an AT&T customer, which is the point of the offer, you wouldn't be working so hard to avoid signing up for your own AT&T plan.

Can anyone point me to a list somewhere of what is coding 3x nowadays and/or what isn't?  Not GCM or Simon but actual retailers.

Thanks!
