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.

older $20 thread for information purposes

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

1. Yes,your trade in phone.They will sent you the new phone and new SIM
2. Go back to Shopping cart or remove it from shopping cart and start over to confirm, you should see $0 due today and $25 upon activation
3. If your IMEI check says your devise is eligible then your are good to trade in yours

Since you've gone through the 'Swap' program, it's understood that you're trading in. There is no place to enter your old device after the IMEI check at the beginning. And they don't cross reference what you entered to what you send in.

I have this E6 and it has good battery and loud speakers. I used it as a hot spot to provide internet to my second phone that runs on cheap Red pocket 500/500/500 plan. Worked well. I however have switched to a Samsung S9 unlocked verizon model (do not get the GSM and the international or those unlocked by Samsung as they won't work). Turns out, with the S9 I get MUCH faster download speeds between 25mbps and 135 mbps (using speednet.com). My wife had the blade A7 and now an iphone 7 (CDMA model) and she barely gets 5 mpbs. Any idea why? Must be the bands?
the S9 does not last as long as the e6 as a hotspot.

Enough for minimal operation. Once you start adding this and that, updates will fail and you'll be asked to remove some apps.
SD cards are cheap and can be fully integrated with system storage.

I got two of these for $10 each after C B earlier this year. That's about all they're worth imo.

As long as you know what you're getting, I think they're fine. But these aren't budget phones in the traditional sense. Most Motorola budget phones I've had in the past are good enough, but I'd say the e6 is barely passable.

It freezes. It lags. Wifi calling is unreliable. Wifi range is bad. It has to be restarted every few weeks because it just stops working. It's too loud with a headset, even on the lowest volume setting. The power button only sometimes works. It can take 5 to 10 seconds to end a call. Waking the phone up can take 10 seconds. Sometimes I think it's dead and almost wish it were so I'd be forced to get a new phone.

The only reason I use it is because I'm extremely cheap when it comes to technology for personal use.

The best part is it's unlocked.
thanks for the review. i salute your patience and fortitude in staying cheap in the face of deals this site throws at you (did you check the Note20 threads yet?).

That's not how it's supposed to go. If you entered the IMEI correctly, it should have said that your phone is compatible with Visible and therefore not eligible for swap, well, unless your S9+ is actually NOT compatible. . .

Exactly, it said 'if you're phone isn't compatible, send us your old phone and we'll send you a new one free of charge.' I think sending in an old vzw flip phone should be fine, no? Does anyone who is suggesting we can't trade in old vzw flip phones know where the terms exclude specific types of phones?
