I'm probably going to use jump to ditch my note 3 for the one. I'm on the old jump, do you stay on the old jump after upgrading?

I am on the old jump as well and also traded in my Note 3 for the M8 earlier today. My rep advised that I will be staying on the old jump program after trading in my phone.
How are you liking it so far compared to your note 3?

I love it! Definitely easier to use the phone one handed, especially with messaging. Now that I don't feel as nervous as dropping something as big as a note 3, I decided to not go with an Otterbox so I have a clear TPU case which shows off the phone so much more better! Definitely no regrets on making this change!
I got the m8 and handed my note 3 to my girl to use. I love the overall feel of the phone and the speakers. I don't miss touchwiz at all.

I'm more than content with the HTC One M8. I used my jump from the HTC One M7. It's funny. I had that phone for a year and 1 month. LoL!!
I got Jump before, so I have the twice a year Jump. So if I jump once a year, it won't matter. Lovely. This works out SO perfect for me.

Might not. It depends on the associate you get if he let's it slide.
Actually it does. They turn it on. Check imei matches and any physical or water damage.

Nvm what I said. You can only trade in a broken phone if you do the things where you switch from another carrier and they pay your etf

Did they want anything besides the phone when you did jump? I would rather keep my Note 3 charger if I can, its a 2 amp charger just gotta use a different usb cable then what came with it
I've done three Jumps on my lines and you keep everything except the battery and phone

2Its a 6 month waiting period before your jump eligibility starts. After that, you have two jump credits available. As soon as you use one, the clock starts. You can use both in a month if you wanted to but you wouldn't be able to jump again until your 2 credits reset 12 months after your first jump.
I don't get what is confusing about that or why anybody would think it worked any other way. They make you wait 6 months with the old program because of the fact that you don't have a minimum payment amount with it. The 50% pay off with the new jump is why they did away with the waiting period

On the old Jump plan like I was on:
You have to wait 6 months to jump first, then you can jump any time after that. Once you've gotten that phone, you have to wait 6 months again. I got the Note 3 when I signed up for Jump, so my 6 months ended right when the M8 came out, so if the Note 4 came out tomorrow, I could get it tomorrow, but if something else came out after, I'd have to wait six months. You also pay the full device tax up front, which is about 48bux. You can also only jump twice a year, as opposed to the new Jump plan. However, everything left on the EIP from the phone is completely removed, regardless of the phone value. If you crack your screen or something, you may be forced to pay your insurance deductible to Jump, as someone got caught on that when I was at the T-Mo store on release day. You still have to trade your phone in to T-Mo or completely pay it off to do the next Jump. I just trade my old one in since Jump includes insurance and who needs the old phone. Like the new Jump, you have to be trading in your old device in order to Jump for the EIP to be nulled out. If you aren't you'll be on the hook for the remaining value.
On the new Jump plan:
You can Jump any time you want, you turn your phone in and T-Mo will pay UP to off half of the value of the phone, leaving you with the other half. You also pay the new device's full price of taxes upfront, so $48 in the case of the M8 for me. So in the case of the M8, I believe it's $636 without taxes. T-Mobile will pay $318 at most, leaving the other 318 to you (or more). As an example of my payments, I pay 26.50 a month for the phone for 24 months. That means in 12 months you would have hit half of the device price when you bought it, and you could jump at that point if you didn't want to pay the rest of it off at the time of the Jump. You could pay it off early and Jump as well, but if you sell it you end up responsible for all remaining payments as you aren't trading anything in, just like on the old plan
Both plans have their positives and negatives, but tl;dr
Old Jump: Jump twice a year, once after 6 months, once whenever, all remaining EIP payments nuked, you won't be forced to switch to the new Jump plan.
New Jump: Jump as many times a year as you want, but you're on the hook for at least half of the devices value at purchase.
Both: You have to trade your old phone in for your new one and you pay the full device taxes up front.
Hopefully that explains everything and wasn't too long and boring. I had it all explained at the store when I did my first 6 month Jump.2

Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk1Don't have an answer to the OP's question, but I heard people who got onto Jump before T-mobile changed it (in Feb wasn't it?) will remain grandfathered on the old plan until they opt to switch to new version. So the older plan was somewhat better deal because one didn't had to pay half-cost of the phone before switching.
