Visible Device Unlocking Policy
Why does Visible have an unlocking policy [visible.com]?
Visible wants to make sure that devices are available for members who want to activate and use Visible service, and keep devices out of the hands of people who want to obtain devices without paying for them or otherwise drive fraudulent activity. To minimize fraud, newly purchased devices will be "locked" to work exclusively on the Visible network for a limited period of time.
What is unlocking?
"Unlocking" a device refers only to disabling the software that prevents a member from attempting to activate a device designed for Visible's network on another carrier's network. Once that software is disabled, you can try to activate your device with another carrier. Take note, however, that not all Visible devices will work or have full functionality with other carriers since each carrier uses different technologies on their networks.
What is Visible's unlocking policy?
Smartphones that you purchase from Visible will be locked for 60 days after activation. After 60 days, we will automatically remove the lock unless we have determined or suspect that the device was lost, stolen, or purchased fraudulently.
Once the 60 day period following device activation expires, your phone will be unlocked.
How do I know if my device is locked?
Upon inserting a non-Visible SIM, an error message like "SIM Not Supported" will appear on the screen of locked devices. Each device manufacturer uses a different message, so you can check with a manufacturer to determine the exact language they use.
Does Visible have an unlocking Policy for deployed military personnel?
Yes we do! If you are a Visible customer in the military and receive relocation orders outside of Visible's coverage area, we will unlock your device and suspend your service at your request, even during the 60-day-lock period following the activation of your device. Just contact Visible Care and we can walk through the process of reviewing and validating your request.

for 64gb black iPhone 12
paid upfront: 600 (1st month with referral code) + 56.25 (tax) = 656.25
3 months of referral and party pay 5 + 25 + 25 = 55
ported with a ting mobile number I had lying around ~ 10
credit after 3 months service = -200
total out of pocket: 656.25 + 55 + 10 - 200 = 521.25
Not a bad deal.
It looks like u have to break the sealed box to activate
