Default T-Mobile Service Question

Please Login to Remove!

Hey guys,

Here's my scenario. I just bought two 8700s from Amazon for T-Mobile. I should've waitied because now, I want an 8100. But that's ok, because here's what I want to do...I was thinking about returning my 8700 (I have 30 days) but first, go to the store and buying/adding an 8100 to my account for an "additional" line. Once I get the 8100, just send back my 8700. Anyone see any issues with this or think it won't work? I apologize if this seems like a stupid question, but my old service was Sprint/Nextel, and I don't really have much experience with T-mo Thanks everyone for your help in advance!

they might make you start another contract on your account for the other line then you'll have to pay termination fee

if you have grace periods of 30 days, you can return the phone, and buy a 8100 from the t-mo store.

Can you return Amazon-bought Blackberries at a TMO store? I would think you have to send 'em back to Amazon.
