Scan or Enter Quick Code

 

Dial *#06# on the device to identify the IMEIs for the defective devices.

  • If the device doesn't turn on, read it from the back of the device, under the battery, or on the SIM card tray.
  • If the device is not displaying in the device history, see Problems ordering a warranty exchange
    • It may take up to 72 hours from the last day of use to show IMEIs or mobile numbers.
    • Contact your coach or senior to perform an override if the above methods don't work.

Enter Last 4 of IMEI

 

Use the last 4 digits of IMEI1 that is displayed in Atlas. If this does not work, try the last 4 digits of IMEI2. You may need to use “Add Device” if the customer is active on an eSIM.

 

Validation errors

 

For device validation errors or devices missing in Device History, see the corresponding section in Problems ordering a warranty exchange for assistance on how to proceed.

In Store Pickup (default option)

  • Replacement device will ship to a store of the customer’s choice.
  • The In Store Pickup option is the default if the customer’s Primary Place of Use (PPU) is within 15 miles of an eligible T-Mobile location. 
    • It is highly recommended for Warranty Exchange shipments, as it eliminates the risk of the customer being charged a non-return or out of warranty fee and decreases the time to get the defective device back.
    • If the In Store Pickup option is presented, it should be utilized. Selecting Ship To/Ship Back will require an override and is considered an exception.
  • Use the customer’s Primary Place of Use address to find the nearest pickup store. If customer wishes to use a different address, select City, State or Zip Code or New Address, enter the necessary values and select Locate Stores. Select the store based on customer preference.
