T-Mobile LG V20 Pre-Sale Promotion Details
According to the source material, T-Mobile launched a pre-sale promotion for the LG V20 in October 2016. The promotion was designed to incentivize customers to purchase the new smartphone through the carrier. The total value of the promotional bonuses was reported to be approximately $350.
The key components of the offer included:
- $200 Trade-In Credit: T-Mobile offered a $200 credit for trading in any working 4G LTE capable smartphone. This offer was valid until December 12, 2016.
- Free LG G Pad X 8.0: Customers who entered into a 24-month financing agreement for the LG V20 received a free LG G Pad X 8.0 tablet.
- Free B&O Play Headphones: Every order included a free pair of premium B&O Play headphones valued at $149. To receive the headphones, customers were required to redeem the offer through LG’s official website.
The LG V20 was available for pre-sale online starting October 17, 2016, with in-store availability beginning October 28, 2016. The device could be purchased for a down payment of $49.99, followed by monthly payments of $30 for 24 months on T-Mobile’s interest-free installment plan. The full retail price of the handset was set at $769.99.
Eligibility and Redemption Process
The promotional offers were tied to specific purchase and financing actions with T-Mobile. Eligibility was contingent on the customer’s agreement to the carrier’s terms for the installment plan or trade-in program.
- Trade-In Offer: To receive the $200 credit, customers needed to trade in a qualifying 4G LTE smartphone. The source does not specify any further eligibility criteria for the trade-in device beyond it being functional and capable of 4G LTE connectivity.
- Financing Requirement for Tablet: The free LG G Pad X 8.0 was exclusively available to customers who chose the 24-month financing agreement for the LG V20. Customers paying the full price upfront or through other methods would not qualify for this bonus.
- Headphone Redemption: The free B&O Play headphones were automatically included with every order but required a separate redemption step on LG’s website. The source does not provide the specific URL or process for this redemption, only noting that it was managed by LG.
