No explanation as to why it's not what was advertised. It didn't have the max amount of memory, so I can see that being a factor, but 2/3 less than what what was advertised is bait-and-switch.
Contact Tmobile support for an explanation. What you may be seeing is a one time credit of $110 and a monthly credit evenly splitting the remaining $190. If your trade was a promotional offer, meaning Tmobile is giving you a higher value than market value, this is how they split the full credit - one upfront credit which is what they get paid at market value, then the remaining balance spread out over the promotional period.
