iPhone 7 $650 missing trade in credit
I participated in the iPhone 7 trade in promo in September on 2 of my lines. I have all my paperwork from in ATT store where they kept my iPhone 6's and did the trade in using the FALL2016TRADE promo code. The credits are still not showing on my bill. Is there a phone number for this program? The online chat agent says I need to go back to the store which we all know is a 30 minute wait and they will just direct me to an 800#. Any suggestions?

I got my credits in just under a month, but I traded in a store so that may get a different response time.
The tracking says it's made it to the destination?
I can't imagine them being able to help you in a store.
I've successfully contacted them at https://tradein.att.com/#/request-help
and gotten a response in 3-5 days from both the status and the help options.

Thank you! I traded mine in store also to help expedite things and from what I understand the store didn't finish the process on the backend. Apparently there are steps that have to be performed after the customer leaves, even though I was given a receipt and said "all done!". The good news is I used Twitter and was contacted my a Social Media Customer Service Rep. This agent was extremely knowledgeable and actually wanted to help fix the problem. I snapped her pictures of my receipts and she has now fixed everything on my account. The credits were even backdated. Thanks for sharing the help link. I looked everywhere on the website before posting this and I guess I just overlooked it.

No credit for me despite repeated calls to Trade-in program support. Everytime they tell me that I will receive an e,mail in next 2-3 business days. No email, no call back and no credit. This is happening for last 3 months, since Nov Thanksgiving, 2016. AT&T should be ashamed their customer support.

No it was NOT. The iPhone 6s Plus was eligible. The iPhone 6, 6 plus or SE were NOT part of any of the BOGO from December 2015 to up to now.
Every BOGO offer was printed online. It very specifically lists the 6S or 6S plus.

Social Media Customer Care Associate. She did tell me that unfortunately,
whatever happened the store didn't process this correctly. However,
because I had saved all my receipts from what the store gave me, I took a
picture and sent them to her. She told me to give her 1-2 business days
but she would fix everything correctly. The credits are now showing on my
bill each month and they did go back and credit everything from the date of
my receipts as well. Always save the receipts until everything starts to
show correctly on your bill!

7 trade in credit and someone responded. Then I had to DM them to verify
account information. It took a week or two but they handled it. I had my
receipts where I sent it in so that helped them a lot track down the
issue. Good luck!
