Anyone’s pending charge fall off? My phone is still on track for delivery tomorrow via UPS but I just checked my bank account and my charge fell off lol

That happened to me. Chase told me that Tmobile didn't send them the receipt to process the payment within 3 days so they cancelled it on their end. I told Tmobile that and the rep said I will still get my phone tomorrow since its already on the way and they are going to recharge at some point. Another rep said it would be this afternoon but nothing yet.

It basically is a scam because iPhones hold their value better than the residual trade in they end up giving you. They know this and book additional profit this way.
You vastly overestimated their additional profits. They sell these used phones off by the pallets. This amid after testing them. They’re likely making very little money off the deal.

That said this still isn’t a scam. Not in the slightest. At least not by any official definition of scam I have found. Nobody is tricking you into anything. Further, this is the same exact deal they and other companies have been offering for years now, simply rebranded.

I took a look on swaps for a T-Mobile iPhone 7. It’s $365 for a base model. Half way price is $350. That extra $15 hardly holds up to the claim that they’ve held up their value and are worth much more than what they’re giving you.
