Trade in promo from 2021 never applied

It was from 2021 and just noticed? Since providers have a normal dispute time frame of 60 or 90 days, at two years it is far too long.

Keeping receipt and checking bills is the right guidance. But also is disputing within a reasonable time. I wouldn't expect them to cover it, but if they do give you anything consider yourself lucky.

The difficulty was not being able to tell the old promotion that was rolling off from the new promotion. I never received any benefit of the phone AT&T received so in fact AT&T stole a phone from me. I’ll be cancelling my four lines and taking this to small claims on Monday if retentions doesn’t do something.

Hello @schor662, thank you for reaching out to AT&T Community Forums. We're here to address your concern.

We know that this is something very important to you. We'll help to get this sorted. 

Let's start with few questions to understand better. 

• Can you please help us with the tracking ID of the trade in device, while you received the iPhone 13 Pro Max?
• Did you mail the trade in device while you received the order of 13 Pro Max at the store?
