Hellz no! Chase screwed me over on the previous deal when they had the same form for another "deal". hard pass. i dont trust them as far as i can throw them.
wondering if you purchase a phone from tmobile site would that fall under phone services charge? LOL
If you're buying a phone for the purpose of buying a phone to use. You might as well wait 3 days. But for $75 maximum upside. It's dumb just to buy a phone because of the %5 off because there are better deals to be had.
If one were to buy a phone from a carrier or put some payments on an EIP, would that qualify for the 5%?

It did not for me when I bought a phone from Verizon Prepaid. When I paid with Chase's Ink Cash business card (which always gives 5% on these phone bills/internet categories, not just one month), the transaction coded as "Telecommunication equipment and phone sales", and I only got the standard 1% instead of 5%. Which was kind of infuriating since I have other online cash back cards (such as Amex Blue Cash and BoA Custom Cash) that would have given at least 3% or more.
YMMV with TMobile, but that was my experience with Verizon's coding.

and as someone already mentioned, just the sheer hassle of switching everything, and probably paying some processing fee for paying with a credit card
