Note: although it said you need to port in, I was able to checkout by getting a new #. So probably no need to port.

I learned from SD to get a Sim from ebay to port out from Sprint. I think it will serve the same purpose.
Go to eBay and search at&t phone port (2.49 + tax, I used empiremobi)
phone, account and pin numbers emailed to you

From other threads, there's something about this e6 that is different than others.

uhhh yeah? I think the $25 price point reflects that and no where was it mentioned that this was actually free free. You still have to trade in and also purchase 1 month of service

Quote from googlephone :
You have to port in number. You can either enter the port in information while placing the order, or when you actually active the phone. That is why you can place order without entering port-in information but then you have to give port-in information when you activate the phone. Otherwise, you will not be qualified for free swap.

People are gambling $129 full price for saving $3 port-in fee. You are introducing trouble.

which part did you not understand?
https://www.visible.com/swap
Swapping is simple
1
Check your phone
Check your phone to see if it will work on Visible. If it won't, you can trade it for one that will.

2
Choose a new phone
We'll ship you your new phone, and SIM card. Plus a box to send us your current phone.

3
Transfer your number
Sign up for Visible service, and transfer your current phone number when you set up and activate your new phone.


4
Send us your old phone
Once you're up and running, send us your old phone within 14 days, or you'll be charged for the new phone.


Of course they can charge you back for full price, if you don't do port-in or don't send any phone back.
If you go to a small court, you will definitely lose because visible can show you the full terms which require port-in and sending back old phone.
In the past, swap didn't require port-in but visible fixed this loophole by specifically adding port-in requirement to prevent abuse of the swap program.

You can still port-in when you activate even if you chose a new number when placing the order.
Funny!

The confirmation email doesn't say anything if your swap is qualified and you won't be charged for full price.
Visible can charge you back full price if you don't fulfill the swap requirements: port-in and send back old phone.
Just like Google Fi moto G Power for $99 deal, you pay $99 when you place the order but if you don't keep the service for 60 days, Google Fi will charge back for full price.

In addition: visible removes the android phone requirement. In the past, the terms asked to return old android phone but visible didn't care about whether the old phone is android or flip phone. Now visible even removes this requirement.
Please just stop.

Getting a 16GB phone for $25 and the hassle? Is that really worth it?
Not really a hassle the last time I did it. They make it simple with the return label and packaging.

Noth worth.. unless you don't have any phone.. with 2GB of RAM this will struggle to run apps smoothly.. I wouldn't go lower than 3GB now these days on phone and even with 3GB is a challenge running 3-4 apps
It works fine for the basics of web browsing and mx player pro and google voice. Used 2 moto e6s since february on mint and freeup. The ram does suck, but they upgraded the processor from a quad core to an octacore moving from e5 to e6, and it makes a difference.

I have compared it to my motorola g6 from 2018 and it seems to run more smoothly, maybe because they strip out a few of the motorola features from it (like face unlock). Overall seems like an efficient phone, not enough bloat to really drag it down.

I read similar experiences from many people last time when E6 swap was going on. My concern is what if they reject the phone and charge me full price. Is there a fall back option?
You obviously weren't paying attention last time. People were sending flip phones without repercussions...

I bought a micro sd card to expand the storage. Prices have been falling a lot on them.

To all those who placed order with new visible number(no port)::

Able to place order with new number. Didn't notice that need to port.
Contacted chat agent explained everything that system allowed me to place order with new number. Agent said will verify from back end make sure you wont be charged full price. Got email from support with confirmation. Will keep email incase it's required.

Crackhead phone , used as a burner , sold at city Bodegas and family dollar type stores to urban poor. 2 gb of ram in a wold where 4gb is the minimum needed to run Android effectively. Yeah it runs on 2 but turtle slow. This is a junk phone I'd advise not buying.
Look at you! 29 posts in and you think you are an expert slickdealer. How cute. Tiny bit racist, no?
