The credits apply to phone or supplement purchases only. So theoretically, if your old earpiece is in goodness sufficiency condition, depending on the modeling,  you could swop it out for a new one. Only phones that a client can prove were used on their current or past tense account ar eligible for course credit, so don’t think you tin can tally out, steal trinity high end smartphones and immediate payment in.
