If you already have a GSM SIM, you can port immediately when setting up your Tello account.

If you have to order the SIM (which will initially show up as $9.99, but end up as free in the last step), you cannot order the port at the time you set up the Tello account. After the SIM card arrives, you follow Tello's prompts to activate. Then, you can click on "Port In" and bring in your existing line.

So once you get the new sim, how long do you have before the sim/plan gets expired? I am using Lycamobile 3+1 month plan and my current plan would end next month on 14th. So planning to buy this plan, redeem the code and have the sim handy before my plan expires
I also would like to know how long if anyone can chime in

Wow! The redemption process was super tedious for me.

I bought the deal 3 days ago, and redeemed it at Tello yesterday.

I wanted to get a 510 area code (where I will use the phone) while needing billing/delivery in a 775 area code. Not possible. Shopping cart had a weird "invalid address" error. No workaround available from their Chat.

What I meant was once we redeem it on Tello and when we receive the SIM card from them, how long will Tello give us to activate the SIM/plan? I think the 30 day that you are referring to is on StackSocial's side only.

Ah darn... so just to make sure I understand this correctly...

If I buy the code on StackSocial's site. That code will always be available on StackSocial's site but I have 30 days from the purchase date on StackSocial's website to redeem it on Tello's site?

When redeeming the code on Tello's site, are you able to redeem the code when you sign up and order the GSM SIM or do you redeem the code only after you order the SIM and go to activate the phone with your new SIM? Thanks.

If that is the case where it is a strict 30 days from the date I order StackSocial's site and I need to redeem it within 30 days and I can only redeem it once I have the SIM, then that means I need to place an order with Tello now, and then when the 30 days is nearly up, I can activate the SIM.

Reason for doing all of these "gymnastics" is because I am on another plan which isn't due for expiration until end of March and I'm trying to get the most out of that plan before switching over.

EDIT: After looking at https://slickdeals.net/f/14827372-tello-value-prepaid-6-month-plan-unlimited-talk-text-2gb-lte-data-new-users-37-24?p=145248436#post145248436
I believe my original question still stands (unless I horribly misinterpreted the picture). I guess to clarify my original question, when you redeem the code with Tello, they have to mail you the SIM but your phone is not activated, does your 6 month plan start immediately on the day you order the plan or when you activate the phone? Thanks.

I just used stacksocial code on a Tello order. The process did not ask for porting info of my current carrier. Will Tello assign me a new number later coming with the free sim card or I can still port my existing number later at the activation time?

It took 3 days for me to receive the sim. Activation was quick and straight forward. I tried the new number and it was fine. I did a port in from Mint and the port was completed within 10 minutes.

After SIM is ordered from Tello, I believe you have certain number of days before you need to activate it - I just don't remember how many exactly. A Tello rep probably can tell you that.

Could someone please tell me what the carrier name reads for the gsm sim on their phone? Is it tello? I've seen "home" or "wireless" before. It doesn't say T-Mobile, does it?
