$100 Phone Trade-In

[blacter]

I signed up for HTC's $100 trade-in offer that was part of their initial marketing for the HTC One. Now I can't find instructions on where to send the old phone etc. Do any of you know?

The question I have is if this applies to the unlocked versions of the One. I plan on getting the developer edition, but in every link the program takes you to the store only lists the Sprint and T-Mobile versions. Will the trade-in still apply for those?

I know when the program was first announced someone on here contacted HTC and was told that the developer edition WAS included. Maybe search the original thread on this topic for "developer" or something like that. I don't see why it wouldn't be included.

I don't even see how that answers the OP's question. He wants to know where to send the phone to and it's not in the FAQ.

To the OP, I assume when the phone is available on the 19th, HTC/Clover Wireless/TWS will have an updated link or form to input your HTC One purchased data on the trade-in page. They'll probably also have an address for everyone to ship their trade-in's to. Right now, all you can do is "Save For Later." Please, anyone correct me if I'm wrong on this.

I bought the dev unit and obviously I can't finish the trade-in until I have the phone details in hand so I did save for later. I'm trading in an old POS Palm Pre, lol. Thanks, HTC!

So I've tried this before and it asks you for some code. Where is this supposed to come from? I pre-ordered the 64gb DE and never received any email with a code.

Look for an email with this title "Thanks for registering for the new HTC One?"

It had my code inside. You might need to check your spam folder.

What is the from address? I don't see that email. All I have is the confirmation from help@letstalk.com

I didn't think I had an email with the code either, I eventually found it in a spam folder where it had not been forwarded to my Mac email box. I only stumbled upon it when I searched for "htc" to find some other mail they sent.

It was a promotion directly from HTC that you had to register for separately from the pre-order. The email comes in from news @ email-htc.com. I heard about it in an article on this site HTC One $100 trade-in deal extended to April 4th | Android Central

Thanks, htowngator. Got it.

[Droid Husker]

Yeah, mine came from the same news@email-htc.com listed above. Mine came all the way back on February 26, so you have to go back a little bit.

I missed it then because I didn't register. Thanks for all the info.

Ah, that blows. Yea, I registered for it back in March when I was thinking about buying it. I figured it couldn't hurt to just register and not use the code, but of course I bought the dev edition anyway.

Call HTC and tell them that you used firefox as your brouser to do the signup and you never got your confirmation email...They will send it to the escalation dept and you may get the $100....HJ

I'll give that a go.

so i guess i have a really old phone, no trade in value. doesn't even let me proceed to mail it in for the minimum $100 gift card.

Was it your current phone? The fine print states it has to be the phone you most recently had active on the account. I don't know if they have any way of actually checking that, but I recall reading that in the terms.
