Deals: AT&T Offering 64GB iPhone 11 for 50% Off When Adding a Line to an Unlimited Plan

If you don't think you're getting a discount. Next time you need a new line, could you give me the discount?
These are real cost and real discounts. You need to switch carriers every 2 years to realize the discount.
A shame all these deals are handled through bill credits. I understand why, but it sucks nonetheless.
It's also a shame that all the best deals seem to be for new lines or new accounts. Upgrading a phone without changing your plan is equivalent to being fleeced.
I agree, it should, but AT&T doesn't make the rules about how to collect state sales tax. The states do.
Those are actually the names of all the different Unlimited plans that have existed for the past many years, and that many people are grandfathered on still. Nothing pathetic about it. It's just AT&T being clear which plans the deal is valid on.
What irkes me is that you have to be on an Unlimited plan to get it. I don't need unlimited data.
I wouldn't mind adding a line to get my daughter an iPhone 11, but I am still on a 12 gig data plan, which is plenty enough for us. With Rollover data, I usually have around 25 gig a month to use if I needed it.

?????????????? I'm assuming you're not American, because this and your previous post show you know nothing about sales tax.
I know US tax. It's pretty simple. You pay the state a percentage of the price of what you are buying. If sales tax is 5% and the item is $100 than you pay $5 in tax or $105 total.
If the manufacturer say this device is $100 and the store sells it for $50 you pay 5% sales tax on what the store is charging you - not what the manufacturer claims it is worth.
So $50 would be $2.50 in tax or $52.50 total. In the USA you do not pay 5% on a hypothetical $100 item and then get $50 removed.
If they claim it's half off the phone than they should collect the tax for half a phone . If they claim its off service they should not claim you get the phone for half price... because you didn't.
