Make sure you grab a referral too to lower the cost by $20. See the visible reddit.

Some good deals on there eg an excellent (minimal use or restored whereas the cheaper very good includes light scratches) iphone X for $549. With the $200 mastercard less $60 in required service that brings it down to $409 for an unlocked cdma capable iphone X. As long as the descriptions match up it would be a great deal.

Visible hasn't the best reputation for service though but you can try it out for free. You can get a $100 mastercard simply by byod, porting in and paying for 2 months service ($80). You net $40 for free if you also add the $20 referral

Updating my experience with Visible wireless for buying an iPhone X. Not a bad deal as I cannot use Sprint, T-Mobile, Google Fi due to reception issues in my area.

1. April 26th : Registered on their Website Visible [visible.com] with offer code tHlRl to get $20 off first month service charge.
2. Made sure Capital one Card authorizes transactions by calling them in advance.
3. Logged in to account and clicked the GET200 Promo link [visible.com] to add iPhone X 64GB pre-owned rated "Excellent" condition at $549 + $43 Tax in cart and placed order. Not a single scratch or sign of use. Also entered porting information from Total Wireless number as the $200 promo needs BYOP.
4. April 28th: Got shipment from Verizon Wireless Fort Worth Texas by Fedex Overnight. The pack had brand new device in Visible branded box + SIM.
5. Installed SIM, Powered on device, Installed Visible App and activated phone. It deducted $20 as first month service charge. Porting happened in 2 minutes.
6. Signal bars showed full strength and LTE speed test was 5Mbps as expected.
7. Confirmed with Visible Support Chat that all is set for $200 card in week 6 of activation.

Overall cost = $549 iPhone X + $43 Tax + $20 first month service + $40 second month service - $200 Virtual mastercard = $452 for device + 2 month prepaid service on verizon network.

May 2nd update :
=============
I was able to buy a new Samsung Galaxy S9 64GB black device for a relative from Visible for $576 + taxes, which turns out to be a better deal than the Samsung S9 from cricket.

With Visible it is for $576 + $20 (1st month service) + $40 (2nd month)- $200 = $436 for Unlocked device with 2 months unlimited service on Verizon 4G LTE network.

Compare that to Cricket deal = $330 + $55 (2nd month service) = $385 for Locked device with 2 months unlimited service on AT&T 4G LTE network (slow in my area).

Yes, you have to activate with same device you buy from Visible AND port-in number in order to be eligible for $200 Virtual Mastercard. However, if ypu have your own unlocked iPhone 6 and above or Samsung Galaxy 9 then you can use that device after you activate the line.

The important fact is getting a Excellent condition phone for that cost. I got one with the plastic wrap on screen like a brand new Apple box iPhone, and there was not a single scratch or sign of use.

Visible sells only fully factory unlocked phones. The only reason to buy and stay with them for 2 months at minimum is to get $200 MasterCard.

Thanks OP. So for those with BYOD, the 2 months of service would pretty much be free when taking into account the $100 prepaid card.

my device passed their imei checker..
turns out my device wouldn't work, being locked to straight talk.
it took 3 chats over about a month and half waiting for them to
"have their special support team review it" to be refunded my $40..
Said they'd email me.. they never emailed me.
one day i was given the $40 credit back on my amex after filing a case with amex.

Also note their initial headlines of discounts ends up having qualifiers that actually changes the promotion.

i would consider it a bad experience, their chat unhelpful and patronizing.
Their setup sucks and it takes too long to refund their mistake. Had i given up they probably never would have refunded my money and just kept it.

I'd say stay away from visible at least until they grow up to be a real and equal company to all the rest.

I am Visible only for their promo on Pre-owned device purchase, the iPhoneX I got was pristine 14 day customer return without a single scratch or mark. As soon as I get the Prepaid card I'll be porting out of Visible.

Did the BYOD and paid two months. NO $100 still. Checked emails and contacted visible support.

They said I did meet requirements but have to contact 3rd party Blackhawk to get the card.

Anybody else have issue getting MC promised? Anyone contacted Blackhawk?

I bought a device + SIM and did number porting so expecting $200 Prepaid card. Activated on April 28th by paying $20, and dates that the Customer Support gave me on chat were as below:
1) May 28th or before : Pay second month charges ($40).
2) May 30th : I'll need to make sure I use the SIM in the device until this day when the promo will be processed for next step ie: issue virtual card.
3) June 9th : Their due date for the issuance of Virtual card by email.

My cousin got a $200 Amazon GC few month back within their earlier offer specified period. The dates given by spport rep align with promo terms and conditions; and Visible being a Verizon subsidiary they should stand by their promise.

BTW, this is my primary line so Visible SIM is always in the device I got from them. I do not have knowledge on eligibility of offer for scenario where SIM is activated on new number (as opposed to porting) or IMEI registered device on BYOD phone and then moved to another eligible device. I'll report back my updates or if I find any further details.
